I am a dedicated Nurse Practitioner with a strong background in mental health and primary care, committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care. I earned my advanced practice degree from Wilkes University and have experience working with diverse populations across various clinical settings.

My approach is collaborative and holistic—I believe in treating the whole person, not just symptoms. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, ADHD, and life transitions. I strive to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered.

I utilize evidence-based treatments, including medication management when appropriate, and incorporate supportive and solution-focused approaches tailored to each individual’s needs. My goal is to help clients achieve stability, improve daily functioning, and enhance their overall quality of life.

I understand that seeking help can be a big step, and I am here to support you throughout your journey with respect, empathy, and professionalism.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker from New Jersey, now living and working in Florida. I have been providing clinical care for over 14 years, working in hospitals, in homes, in private practice, Veteran health care, and also end of life care. I have extensive practice in working with Anxiety, Depression, and Trauma.

Therapy is more than just talking, it is about taking concrete steps toward a more fulfilling life. My work is rooted in self exploration, helping you look inward to better understand, appreciate, and connect with who you truly are. Together, we begin to uncover the patterns, emotions, and experiences that have shaped you. As you make sense of your story with support, new possibilities for growth, choice, and change can start to feel more real and within reach.

I specialize in mood disorders (including depression and bipolar disorder), anxiety (generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social anxiety), and trauma-related conditions including PTSD. I am deeply committed to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health — and I understand firsthand how shame and silence can stand in the way of healing and daily functioning. Outside of work, I'm a parent who enjoys going to the pool and playing board games with my children, which keeps me grounded in the everyday joys that matter most.

Do you understand why you feel the way you do, but the feelings won't change? Maybe you've been to therapy before, gained insight, and still find yourself stuck in the same anxiety, low moods, or painful memories — and you're starting to wonder if anything will really work.

Talking helps, but some things — especially trauma — don't fully heal through talking alone. That's why I use EMDR, a proven, structured approach that helps your brain reprocess painful experiences so they lose their grip on your daily life. Many of my clients are surprised to feel real movement on things they've carried for years.

I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist supporting adults across Florida with trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Figuring out who you are, and where you fit, can feel overwhelming, especially when you're carrying anxiety, family stress, relationship challenges, or feeling disconnected from yourself. Therapy can be a space where you don't have to have everything figured out.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with children, adolescents, adults, and families to create a supportive, affirming environment where people feel safe showing up exactly as they are. Many of the clients I work with are navigating anxiety, identity exploration, family conflict, relationship concerns, stress, or major life transitions. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that support confidence, resilience, and meaningful growth.

I also work with clients struggling with mood disorders, OCD, and personality disorders, amongst other conditions.

It has been my mission to create a space where you can be yourself and we can work together towards healing.

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.

I work with adults and adolescents who are carrying burdens they're ready to put down, whether that's trauma, anxiety, depression, behavioral struggles, or the weight of a life that feels out of balance. In our work together, I help them build real, practical skills for lasting change using evidence-based approaches tailored to their unique story. Healing isn't linear, but with the right support, it is absolutely possible.

You may find yourself stuck in unhealthy patterns, struggling to communicate effectively, or carrying emotional burdens that continue to impact your daily life. Whether you are navigating challenges as an individual, within a relationship, or as part of a family system, therapy can provide a space to better understand what is happening and begin creating meaningful change.

I am the wife of a veteran, and mother of three. I have worked with children, families and couples for over 20 years. I believe in empowering others to guide them to discover the answers that they have and just need some direction to find . I work at their pace using wisdom from living this thing, we call life, and the trials that come with it. Guiding clients to find solutions, healing, and hope are primary objectives. I assist clients to understand that there is another side to what they are feeling and living; the other side is hope and healing. I graduated from USC, have been trained in several ways to do heal emotional wounds. Together we can work on anything from simple life issues, ADHD, moral injury, and trauma such as such as domestic violence. I also work with attunement isdues between parent and child that often present as behavioral issues in the littlest of littles. Connection is a basic human necessity. I am in a profession that provides others hope, healing, and growth, in their lives. There are no words to express how meaningful giving hope to others and helping others heal is, but it is why I do this "work". It is always an honor for me to be a part of anyone's healing journey in any way.

Therapy with me is very human and genuine. I don’t just focus on what’s painful or stuck but help to highlight the ways in which my clients overcome life's punches. While I take this work seriously, I believe laughter can be healing and disarming in therapy.
