Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Tanya uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful and collaborative space where the client’s values and goals guide the work. This approach focuses on listening, empathy, and tailoring support so people feel heard and can explore what matters most to them.

She also incorporates mindfulness therapy to teach practical ways of noticing thoughts, breath, and bodily sensations. Mindfulness techniques are useful for reducing stress, managing anxiety, and improving emotional regulation through simple, repeated practices.

In addition, Tanya draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop more effective strategies for coping with challenges. CBT is often applied to anxiety, stress, and actionable problem solving.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tanya works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts treatment plans over time so approaches evolve as progress is made.

Online therapy with Tanya can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from a licensed professional without requiring travel, allowing therapy to fit into busy or changing lives.
