About Tai-Anne
Tai-Anne Linton is a licensed therapist based in Maryland. She holds MD and LCSW-C, LCSW credentials and has seven years of clinical experience. Tai-Anne centers her work on stress, anxiety, trauma, and depression.
She brings a calm, practical style to sessions and focuses on helping people find tools that work in day-to-day life. Before moving into independent practice she worked as a rape crisis counselor and earned a Master of Social Work from the University at Albany, SUNY.
Background and approach
That background shapes her approach to trauma and safety in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and person-centered methods to help people notice unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors. Her sessions emphasize skill building and clear action steps.
She uses psychoeducation to teach coping skills and to build a practical toolkit clients can use during stressful times. Conversations tend to focus on identifying stressors, challenging negative thoughts, and creating small plans that are realistic to carry out. Tai-Anne supports people from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQ+ clients and African-American women, and she also helps with parenting challenges.
She keeps a strength-based stance, looking for existing resources a person can use and expand. Outside of therapy she encourages self-care and activities that reduce stress, such as travel and hobbies. She guides clients through growth at a steady pace and works collaboratively to set goals that fit each person’s life.
How Tai-Anne Uses Practical Therapies Online
CBT helps people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. In a session she might help a client label negative thinking, test it against evidence, and try a small behavior change to see what happens. This approach is often used for anxiety and stress-related problems.Person-centered work focuses on listening and supporting the client’s own goals. Sessions using this approach center the client’s perspective, strengthen self-direction, and help people build on their existing strengths. For trauma-related concerns she draws on experience from crisis work to prioritize safety and pacing.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then adapt methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative process helps shape the plan and keeps changes grounded in the client’s life.
Online formats provide practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer a way to touch base between sessions or to use written reflection when speaking feels hard. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and varied schedules.
