Background and approach

Her approach draws on methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy to address thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Mindfulness techniques are used to reduce reactivity and increase calm. Solution-Focused tools help people identify small changes that add up over time.

With five years of clinical experience, Tanya tailors treatment plans to each person's situation. She pays attention to career stress, social anxiety, body image, and issues around gender and sexuality. She also provides support for serious losses and end-of-life concerns.

Tanya aims to create a space where people feel heard and understood. She collaborates on practical steps and adjustments that fit daily life. The goal is steady progress toward more confidence, less overwhelm, and clearer direction.

Approaches used online and how they help

Tanya commonly blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy during online work. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and behaving, which can reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that lower reactivity and make stressful moments easier to handle.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on each person's priorities. That approach centers on listening, empathy, and working at the client’s own pace. Choosing techniques is a collaborative process; the therapist and client decide together which methods best match the client's needs, goals, and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and longer conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice-only check-in is preferred. Live chat and text sessions make brief check-ins, skill practice, and scheduling easier during busy weeks. These options are meant to increase flexibility and make it simpler to fit therapy into a daily routine.
