Tania Ramirez is fully booked.
Welcome! Glad you are here, I am a licensed professional clinical counselor based out of California. I received my masters from the Chicago school of professional psychology, and I have been practicing for 4 years. My goal is to empower you—whether you’re navigating new transitions and/or or facing personal challenges—to reclaim your story and build a life with purpose. In a culturally responsive space where you feel seen and validated, we’ll work together to create meaningful change.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, you can expect a welcoming and supportive space where you can share your story at your own pace. I’ll start by going over confidentiality, informed consent, and the therapy process so you feel comfortable and understand your rights. We’ll explore what brought you to therapy, your personal history, and the challenges you're facing. This is a collaborative process, and my goal is to understand what you hope to achieve. Depending on your needs, I may introduce some psychoeducation to help you see how therapy can support your growth.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I bring cultural understanding and lived experience, along with a strong clinical foundation to support you. I’m passionate about education and empowerment, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, valued, and supported every step of the way.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
I love working with people facing systemic challenges, life transitions, and/or the pressures of college. In our sessions, you’ll have a safe, validating space to build resilience, strengthen self-awareness, and gain confidence through mindfulness, skill-building, and support.

VirtualMy treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have utilized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and modify maladaptive thought patterns, emotions, and behaviors. Within the criminal justice system, I have worked with individuals who struggle with impulsivity, distorted thinking, and emotional regulation—issues that often contribute to their legal involvement. By employing CBT techniques such as cognitive restructuring, behavioral activation, and skills training, I have guided clients in recognizing the connection between their thoughts and behaviors, fostering accountability, and developing healthier coping strategies. Outside of the criminal justice system, I have applied CBT to a diverse client population dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD, and relational difficulties. In these cases, I have utilized psychoeducation, guided exposure, and behavioral experiments to assist clients in reducing avoidance, improving emotional regulation, and enhancing their overall well-being. My approach is collaborative and strengths-based, empowering clients to take an active role in reshaping their cognitive and emotional responses.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I integrate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to support clients in developing emotional regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills. My approach is particularly effective for individuals struggling with emotional dysregulation, impulsivity, self-destructive behaviors, and difficulties in relationships.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
Through experiential exercises, cognitive defusion techniques, and values exploration, I help clients recognize that thoughts and emotions do not have to dictate their behaviors. By fostering present-moment awareness and self-compassion, I guide them in shifting their focus from control to acceptance, allowing them to engage more fully in life.
