In session she combines clear, structured techniques with open conversation.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and perspective. It involves reflective listening and helping people decide what matters most, which can be useful for issues like anger, grief, and relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors connect. It uses practical exercises and step-by-step plans to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and impulsive reactions such as anger.
Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or uncertain about change. It uses guided conversation to clarify a person’s reasons for change and build motivation for steps they want to take.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tanya will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and day-to-day life. That choice can shift as progress is made, with tools added or adjusted along the way.
Online therapy makes these approaches easier to access. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions work well for quick check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, tracking progress, and staying connected between longer sessions. These options make scheduling and regular practice more flexible for busy lives.
