About Tanya
Tanya Samuelian is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and coaching. Tanya aims to give people a calm space to pause and sort through what feels overwhelming.
Her approach is practical and collaborative. Sessions are warm and structured enough to make progress while remaining flexible to match each person's pace. She helps clients notice the patterns that keep them stuck and tries to turn insight into daily habits that feel doable.
Background and approach
Tanya has nine years of experience and a Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy from California Lutheran University. She has worked with young adults, professionals, and couples who often present as put-together but feel anxious or burned out inside. In session she listens for the stories people tell about themselves and the roles they play.
She then uses talking, reflection, and practical exercises to help people shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors. The work often includes building communication skills and clearer boundaries. People typically come for help with anxiety, relationship trouble, perfectionism, or life transitions.
Tanya also addresses concerns like money stress, forgiveness, life purpose, and self-love. Her goal is for clients to leave sessions feeling steadier and more able to make choices aligned with their values. She offers support in English and provides video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Therapy is delivered through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
Approaches to worry and relationship strain online
The practice draws on evidence-based techniques that help people understand and change unhelpful patterns. One approach focuses on identifying parts of experience that contribute to anxiety and overthinking, helping people name those parts and relate to them differently. This can reduce rumination and make emotions easier to manage.Another set of tools uses cognitive-behavioral methods to notice and shift thoughts and behaviors that fuel stress. These techniques include simple exercises to test worries, change unhelpful thinking, and build new habits for daily life. They often help with anxiety, perfectionism, and burnout.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist collaborates with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and pace. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls work well for deeper conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter reflections, or support between longer sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and varied daily routines.
