Recent reviews
Tanya has been of great support in a time of need - my shift pattern made it awkward to see a “regular” counsellor. Emailing is not the same as face to face as you cannot put everything into words and there is no immediate reaction. Tanya, however, has obviously read my messages before responding and has always responded in good time. Tanya offers wise counsel and offers insightful ways of looking at issues providing possible routes forward without falsely promising a quick fix to all issues. I would and do throughly recommendation both BetterHelp as a method of seeking help (particularly if you find it hard to get to regular appointments) and Tanya as a counsellor.

Hello, and welcome! I'm truly glad you're here, taking this courageous step toward reclaiming your well-being.
My own journey into counseling began with personal challenges that reshaped my path. After the premature birth of my youngest, I Found out I needed a kidney transplant eight months later. With two small kids and a husband who was in the Navy, I fell into a deep depression. Getting out of bed was a struggle. With the help of an amazing therapist, I found my way back to the light. When it became clear that my transplant would prevent me from pursuing my dream of becoming a medical doctor, I sought another way to give back and found my calling in counseling.
As a therapist, my mission is to assist individuals and couples in navigating their current challenges, helping them emerge stronger and more connected. Nothing brings me greater joy than concluding services with someone, knowing they have reclaimed their strength and resilience.
I have two Master's degrees in counseling and have recently become a a sex therapist which allows me to support a diverse range of clients across all ages. I specialize in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an action-oriented approach that encourages embracing thoughts and feelings rather than fighting or feeling guilty for them. Additionally, I'm trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a psychotherapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories.
Since 2012, I've made Augusta my home, relocating from New York City. My supportive husband and children stood by me throughout my educational journey, and now, with my two children grown and living in different places, I share my home with three large, loving dogs. Recently, I had the joy of welcoming my first granddaughter.
I look forward to connecting with you and commend you on taking this first step toward rediscovering yourself.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Tanya has been such a great help, support and ear during a difficult period in my life, I would recommend her to anyone!
Tanya has been incredible in guiding me through tough questions that I needed to answer myself. She is patient, very kind and respectful, but straight to the point whenever she needs to. She has been amazing at identifying points that need to be talked about, even if they come subtly during a conversation. She is good at asking very relevant questions about those points and guiding me, usually until I get to the answer myself. Thank you for your help so far, Tanya. It has been invaluable <3
