Thank you for reaching out to me today! I am here to listen and to help. I am licensed to practice professional counseling in Florida and Missouri with a specialty in addictions and co-occurring disorders. I have been assisting clients since 2011, but in recent years my primary focus is with adults ages 18 and older.
There is something different about talking to someone who actually understands your world. I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, life transitions, and challenges with identity and how they see themselves, and I offer sessions in both English and Haitian Creole. I bring particular care to clients from Haitian and Caribbean backgrounds and to women navigating the emotional weight of motherhood, loss, and everything in between. With more than 15 years of experience, I have seen what becomes possible when people feel genuinely seen and free to show up exactly as they are.
Hi! I’m Tanya, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with four years of clinical experience. Life can be tough, and sometimes we all need a space to talk things through. I offer a relaxed, supportive environment where you can be yourself without judgment. Whether you’re dealing with stress, relationships, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to help you figure things out and move forward.
Greetings!
I’m excited to welcome you to work with me. I’m a licensed clinical social worker with years of experience working with individuals who chose to focus on themselves in a holistic manner. I believe our minds, bodies and souls heal best when we address them jointly.

I’ve been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California since 1995 and in Florida since 2001, with decades of experience supporting individuals, couples, families, and groups. In addition to my clinical work, I’ve served as a motivational trainer, consultant, and adjunct faculty member at over 20 universities, community colleges, hospitals, and medical centers.
My approach is rooted in psychoeducation — helping you better understand yourself while giving you practical tools to navigate life’s challenges. I enjoy working with people from all walks of life and have experience supporting clients through relationship issues, life transitions, personal growth, and emotional healing. I also facilitate seminars, workshops, and small groups, where I create a supportive space for learning, connection, and growth. My goal is to help you feel understood, empowered, and equipped to move forward with confidence.

I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard, understood, and empowered to grow.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Port Charlotte
Searching for therapists in Port Charlotte starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. People often look for therapy care in Port Charlotte for anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look for specialties and approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-informed care, family therapy, or couples counseling. A therapist’s profile can help you understand who they work with, what concerns they focus on, and what sessions may be like.
In a smaller city like Port Charlotte, local appointment options may be more limited than in larger Florida markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still connecting you with a therapist licensed in Florida. As you narrow your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist offers in-person or virtual sessions, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading bios before booking can also help you compare communication style, background, and approach across therapists, counselors, psychologists, and other licensed mental health professionals.
Therapy in Port Charlotte can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see an estimated cost before you book. You can browse therapists in Port Charlotte, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
