LCSW, 9 years of experience
Welcome to my page! My name is Tanya and I am licensed in California with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience helping clients with stress, anxiety, coping with addictions, trauma, abuse, grief and loss. I believe in treating the root cause of disease and distortion of our lives. As a Trauma Informed/Holistic therapist, I like to identify the driving forces behind the pain we carry biologically, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step, or hundred step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.
In our first session we will go into brief introductions and and thorough history of your life, to really get a breakdown of what treatment plans will work best.
As not just a therapist but someone who carry’s great empathy and compassion, on a human being level. I have the ability to make room for pain and healing together. As we cannot have one without the other. I will support your journey and team up with you so you won’t have to feel alone anymore. As a Trauma Informed Therapist, I can help with a variety of things but one in particular is narcissistic abuse. Whether it’s a parent or partner, this type of abuse is detrimental to the brain. After years of working with clients, I have uncovered many tools to heal from this and lasting damage it causes. I have witnessed many people flourish, and be set free.
Those struggling with any trauma, addictions, relationship issues, eating disorders, bipolar, borderline personality disorder.
I use Brainspotting to help release stored trauma in the subcortical brain that cannot be released consciously. This is the unconscious brain and nervous system that hold on to these memories. I find it to be so helpful to release what is holding you back from living your best life.
I believe we all have a fundamental connection with a higher power. Whatever that means for you, I will support whatever beliefs you have.
As a Trauma Informed Therapist, I use both CBT and DBT to help with emotional regulation, complex PTSD, interpersonal relationships, and personality disorders, who usually have a history of Trauma.

Tanya has helped me in so many different ways. We have worked through trauma that I never even knew existed before seeing her. We have done lots of CBT as well as brain-spotting, both of which have had very positive outcomes. From dealing with childhood trauma and family conflict, to working through a very severe accident, Tanya has always gone above and beyond for me.

Tanya is a fabulous therapist! I've been working with her for almost 2 years now. We've done trauma work, including brain-spotting, that has helped me to work through some of my childhood trauma. She has also helped me in recovery from my compulsive gambling addiction. Tanya is warm, caring, intelligent, and just a great human, let alone therapist. I love the openness of our sessions and the back and forth conversations we have. Tanya is great to work with!

Tanya is absolutely amazing. She has changed my life so much for the better and has help rebirth an inner strength I thought I would never find. Her support is unsurpassed. She talks to you like a human not like a therapist. She relates to your pain and obstacles. Her suggestions are based off her own trial and error. She shows empathy and sympathy in all facets.
