Authentic
Empowering
Warm

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who provides a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where clients can feel safe to explore life’s challenges. I specialize in helping individuals heal from trauma, navigate anxiety and depression, strengthen relationships, and reconnect with their authentic selves.

As a Trauma Informed/Holistic therapist, I like to identify the driving forces behind the pain we carry biologically, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

My approach integrates evidence-based practices with a holistic, mind-body perspective to support lasting growth and meaningful change.

First session

During our first session, you can expect a supportive and judgment-free space where we will explore what brings you to therapy and what you hope to achieve. I will take time to understand your unique experiences, strengths, and challenges while helping you feel comfortable and heard. Together, we will begin creating a personalized path toward healing and growth.

Strengths

I bring compassion, authenticity, and a trauma-informed perspective to every session, helping clients feel seen, heard, and understood. My strength lies in creating a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship while helping clients develop insight, build resilience, and create meaningful change in their lives. My approach stands out because I integrate powerful, brain-based modalities such as EMDR and Brainspotting to help clients process unresolved trauma, reduce emotional distress, and move beyond patterns that may be keeping them stuck. These approaches go beyond traditional talk therapy by helping the brain and body access deeper healing, allowing clients to experience lasting relief, greater resilience, and meaningful change.

Ideal clients

Those struggling with any trauma, addictions, relationship issues, eating disorders, bipolar, borderline personality disorder.

Treatment methods

Brainspotting

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.

Faith-based therapy

I believe we all have a fundamental connection with a higher power. Whatever that means for you, I will support whatever beliefs you have.

Trauma-Focused CBT

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.
