About Tanya
Tanya Lance is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She brings 20 years of experience to her work and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and low self-esteem. Her style is practical and person-focused, aimed at helping clients make changes that matter day to day.
She favors a holistic view that considers thoughts, feelings, and how daily habits affect mood. Sessions often include straightforward tools to reduce reactivity, lower anxiety, and build confidence.
Background and approach
Tanya also supports people facing depression and compassion fatigue and those who are dealing with guilt, shame, or questions about life purpose. Tanya uses approaches such as client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior methods, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies. She works collaboratively to pick exercises and conversations that fit each person’s goals.
The emphasis is on small, practical steps clients can use between sessions. People who come to Tanya learn skills for handling intense emotions, improving communication, and forgiving themselves or others when ready. She encourages clients to notice strengths they already have and to try new ways of acting in stressful moments.
This is steady, supportive work aimed at clearer thinking and calmer reactions. To begin, a short matching questionnaire helps pair a person with the service and schedule. Sessions are offered through video, phone, live chat, or text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How Tanya’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy starts by listening closely and following the person’s concerns. It helps people feel heard and guides sessions toward what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety and manage anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds skills for tolerating distress, regulating intense emotions, and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. Together they try techniques, review what helps, and adjust the plan as needed to make steady progress.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and use of worksheets or guided exercises. Phone sessions can be helpful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates, practice skills between sessions, or check in on busy days. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, commute, or family routine while still using practical therapeutic tools.
