About Tecky
Rev. Tecky Rusk is an Ohio licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) with 23 years of experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, mood disorders, relationship difficulties, grief, and many life transitions.
She sees people across the lifespan, from children and preteens through adolescents, young adults, middle age, and older adults. Her practice includes concerns such as trauma and abuse, panic, social anxiety, chronic pain, caregiver stress, postpartum challenges, and issues around adoption and blended families. Codependency is listed among her additional focus areas.
Her style is practical and person-focused. Sessions look at communication patterns, attachment issues, and the daily habits that keep old problems repeating. She uses talk, questions, and exercises to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new ways of relating to others.
She also works with people dealing with career strain, sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem, and the stress of caregiving. When trauma is part of the history she may include methods that help process distressing memories and reduce their hold on daily life.
Many clients come with complicated medical or life situations like chronic illness, cancer, or co-occurring conditions. She helps people balance practical coping with longer-term changes in identity and roles. To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches used and how online sessions work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that reflect their values. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and people who feel stuck in patterns like people-pleasing. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing thought and behavior patterns that increase distress, with practical exercises people can try between sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape relationships and communication and can help people shift how they respond to intense feelings.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean combining ACT and CBT techniques, or using EMDR-informed work when trauma processing is needed; the plan is developed together and adjusted over time.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life by removing travel time, offering shorter check-ins when needed, and letting people join from different locations. These practical benefits help people keep steady contact with a licensed professional while they try new ways of coping and relating.
