- LPC
I am a National Certified (NCC), Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the State of Michigan, License #6401224388. I am a level two Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II) and a Certified Autism Spectrum Disorder Clinical Specialist (ASDCS), as well as a certified Advanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapist (A-CBT). I have formal training in Telemental Health (CTMHP). I completed both my practicum and internship at a facility for high-risk adolescent girls who have experienced trauma from human trafficking, substance abuse, physical, mental, and verbal abuse, as well as abandonment, displacement, and other traumatic circumstances. I have extensive professional experience working with the physically and cognitively impaired population from adolescence to adulthood. Additionally, my experience as a mental health Clinician consists of diverse situations, which include help and support for those who struggle with comorbid disorders, grief, trauma-related, severe mental illnesses, and career-related difficulties.
I have focused specializations in Forensic Counseling, Career Counseling, and Addiction Counseling, and I hold a Bachelor's in Criminal Justice. I possess well over 20+ years of experience working with adult and adolescent clients who struggle with comorbidity or a dual diagnosis of neurodevelopmental disorders. I subscribe to person-centered and choice/reality therapy (CT/RT) and routinely use motivational interviewing to support my clients' growth and development. Because I encourage others to remain open to growth and development, I regularly work to expand my approaches with research-based therapeutic methods that meet the needs of many within this diverse and continuously evolving society.
Education
My Bachelor of Science degree has a dual focus on Criminal Justice and Psychology. I earned a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, with a specialization in Forensic Counseling and Career Counseling, from Walden University in Minneapolis, Minnesota. As a Walden University alumnus, I am pursuing a Ph.D. in Counselor Education and Supervision (CES), with a specialization in Addictions Counseling, and an expected graduation year of 2027.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Pretty well organized let me talk and understand how I felt
Tanya is the best listener and helps offer great insight. So glad I took a chance and downloaded the app a few months back.
Working with Tanya has been a breath of fresh air, and she is not my first therapist, but she is the best so far. She listens, provides suggestions to manage ongoing concerns, and respects the need for time, but will not leave you out there for too long without checking in. She is a true professional and I'm happy to have chosen her as my therapist.
She is honestly the best! I feel so comfortable during our sessions and get to be my true authentic self when sharing my experiences with her because I know that she has not judged me, and will not judge me. All of my preconceived notions and hesitations regarding therapy were washed away when I met Tanya, and I've never had any doubts in continuing therapy with her as my desired therapist!
My therapist, Tanya, is wonderful to talk with. She creates a space where I feel comfortable sharing. She helps me work through my anxiety and anger issues.
Wonderful therapist! I am so incredibly happy with Tanya. She has helped me blossom as a person and flourish with more confidence.
I am so grateful to have been connected with Tanya. She is so friendly and calming and knowledgeable. She is invested in my well-being and genuinely cares about helping. I would recommend her anytime!
Tanya is so sweet and really takes the time to listen. She helps me get my point across and understands how a side tangent is necessary to help me better explain myself. I feel like we’re two friends chatting. She is very professional and offers great advice and guidance while making sure I know she’s not judging. I am so happy with her and BetterHelp
Tanya is great for me because she seems to have the capability to help my specific problems whereas other therapists without the correct qualifications could make it worse.
From the first visit she's caring, supportive and what I needed
Tanya’D acts as a friend and I love that about her her! She cares strongly about the person and she can relate to your personal feelings! I’m so glad I have her!
Very attentive listener with great advice
