Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Tanya commonly draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration so clients feel heard and can explore their own goals - it is helpful for building self-esteem and navigating identity or relationship concerns. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical strategies to reduce anxiety, improve mood, and address workplace or social stressors. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and stress-reduction techniques that can ease ongoing worry, grief, and emotional reactivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Tanya works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting the plan as progress is made. This collaborative stance helps tailor interventions to what will be most useful for the individual.

Online therapy offers flexibility to receive care by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access consistent support from licensed professionals without travel barriers.
