More about Tanya

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

As a licensed therapist in Indiana, I bring 17 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on creating compassionate, culturally responsive spaces for healing across diverse life experiences. I specialize in addressing challenges related to depression, relationship dynamics, trauma recovery, and personal growth.

My therapeutic approach honors each person's unique journey, with a deep commitment to understanding individual experiences of social anxiety, isolation, life transitions, and interpersonal struggles. I offer supportive guidance for women, young adults, and individuals navigating multicultural experiences, workplace challenges, and personal transformation.

Drawing from evidence-based practices, I help clients develop resilient communication skills, process difficult emotions, and cultivate self-compassion. My work is grounded in respect, empathy, and a collaborative approach that empowers clients to discover their inner strengths and create meaningful change.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
