About Tanya
In the therapy room she blends a cognitive behavioral approach with natural and holistic ideas to match what fits each person. Sometimes she is gentle and reflective, and other times she will be more directive to teach a skill or set a plan. Humor may be used occasionally to point out patterns and ease tension. The work focuses on real-life changes, such as shifting unhelpful thoughts, improving sleep, or managing mood swings.
Tanya has worked with a wide range of adults over two decades. She has experience with trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, career transitions, and mood disorders including bipolar and depression. She also supports people facing cancer, midlife questions, and feelings of isolation or guilt.
Sessions are conducted in English and are offered from her California practice. Tanya emphasizes collaboration and practical tools that people can use between sessions. She aims to listen closely and tailor treatment to each person's goals.
People who are looking for straightforward, compassionate care and clear steps for coping often find her style helpful. She encourages starting with a brief matching questionnaire to see if her approach fits the needs and preferences of the person seeking help.
