About me

Welcome! It is so nice to meet you! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) from Florida with over 14 years of experience in the field helping people create lasting changes in their lives. I have worked with a variety of individuals of all ages and backgrounds. My approach is a combination of solution focused, narrative and cognitive behavioral therapies used to help you identify the strengths you already possess within to find solutions to the things that are holding you back from achieving your goals.

When I work with clients, I focus on making sure they feel understood and heard. I help to create a therapeutic environment based on mutual respect and trust. Life is tough enough, so sometimes you just need someone to listen and be a sounding board. Other times, you find yourself stuck and cannot find a way out. I specialize in helping people identify those answers and solutions that allow them to move forward to a happier space in their lives. We work together to break those unhealthy habits, to change that old way of thinking and to make room for personal growth.

Therapy is a giant step, and I am thrilled to be on this journey with you. Let's work together to figure out those answers that you've been searching for but haven't yet found.

Tanya has been patient and empathetic with me through this rough patch, she has helped me understand when to not burden myself with things out of my control, I am able to apply these tools to my day to day and have a more positive interaction in difficult situations.

Tanya helped me through my worst times. She always understood me and gave me hope for the better. She supported me through whatever was happening in my life and worked with me to become strong again. I’m not the same person I was before I started therapy with her. I am happier, I keep on pushing when it feels hard and I know my worth. She was exactly who I needed when my life got rough. I would truly recommend her!

Tanya is great! She’s incredibly easy to talk to and creates an open, comfortable and non-judgmental space during her sessions in which she gently guides conversation to where we arrive at insights and resolutions organically. She also has awesome little homework assignments to aid in my growth which are actually quite enjoyable! Thank you Tanya!

I’ve enjoyed working with Tanya thus far. I’m a fairly new client, but she’s already helped me establish priorities, get motivated and engaged, and held me accountable. Best of all, she doesn’t let me get distracted by my complexifying BS. It feels great having Tanya in my corner, and I look forward to further growth and progress.

I have only had a few sessions with Tanya. But I’ve already learned so much from each one. I truly believe that the universe places certain people in your life for a reason and I can already see why Tanya was placed in mine. I truly look forward to each session with her. I love her realistic approach and advice and I can’t wait to continue my self love journey with her assistance.
