About Tanya

Tanya Wood is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma. She offers a calm, accepting presence where clients can talk about hard experiences and work toward clear, practical steps forward.

Tanya uses a person-centered way of working that starts with listening. She helps people name what matters, notice patterns that get in the way, and try small changes that build confidence. Her sessions emphasize real-life skills like communication, emotional regulation, and coping strategies for big transitions.

Her background includes seven years of clinical experience supporting people through relationship struggles, career shifts, parenting strain, and loss. Tanya also attends to issues that often come with major life events, such as attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and the stresses of caregiving or chronic illness.

She brings trauma-focused methods when past hurt affects present life, and she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to help with strong emotions and unhelpful thinking. Tanya also uses solution-focused techniques to set short-term goals and build momentum toward change.

Tanya speaks both English and Spanish and accepts international clients. Her approach aims to meet people where they are and support steady progress, one step at a time.

How Tanya’s approaches translate to online therapy

Tanya commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused Therapy to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting working relationship so clients can explore what matters most. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and experiment with small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on supporting people to process past hurts and develop skills to manage upsetting memories and reactions.

Choosing the right method is collaborative. Tanya will work with each person to match approaches to their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking how they feel, and adjusting course together rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into a busy life. Online work can make it simpler to meet when travel or time constraints make in-person visits difficult. Confirm the specific session options available when booking, since this biography does not list formats. Sessions aim to bring consistent support and teach skills that can be practiced in everyday settings.
