Great to meet you!

Hello, my name is Tanya Andino, I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and thank you for taking the 1st step. Life can be stressful and feeling stuck or overwhelmed can be exhausting, but I am here to tell you, that you don’t have to do it alone, and having the type of life and relationships you want, is possible. With over 17 years of experience practicing in the field of mental health, I have seen the power of how minor shifts in our daily lives can lead to a path of growth, self-discovery, transformation, healing and ultimately, fulfillment.

The good news is, you are already on that path, and I truly hope you find a provider who is a good fit for you!! With a background in social services and education, my journey into the field of mental health began with a firm belief in the intrinsic worth of each human being. With the intention to effect change through compassion and integrity.

I have extensive experience working with clients from all backgrounds and of all ages. Whether you’re coping with anxiety, anger, depression, burnout, trauma, PTSD, relationship struggles, self-doubt, grief, ADHD, dealing with major life changes, workplace or family challenges, I will partner with you in your journey towards wellness. I believe therapy works best when it’s shaped around you. I am certified and trained in several evidence-based treatment models (including: EMDR, Trauma-Informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Reflective Facilitator (RF), Seeking Safety (SS), Crisis Oriented Recovery Services (CORS) and a nationally registered Parent-Child Psychotherapist / CPP Clinical Supervisor and more) and I use a strength-based and integrative approach towards treatment; tailoring services to meet the specific needs of each Client.

My approach to therapy

As a mental health advocate, I do not judge or push any beliefs or agenda and seek to truly understand your unique story and perspective. Encouraging open, transparent and authentic communication. So together, we will create a safe, confidential and supportive environment. To explore and identify unhelpful patterns and cultivate habits that align with your values and goals. So, you can begin living the change you want to see.

What you can expect from me

Expect a therapist who will advocate for you, empower your voice, and encourage holistic growth at your pace. I offer steady, compassionate support throughout counseling, beginning with our first session. Our first session will be a time for us to get to know each other and explore what’s bringing you into therapy. Together, we’ll work towards clarity, emotional balance and create a personalized plan that focuses on what matters most to you. By identifying meaningful and achievable goals that are supportive of the life you want to live. Treatment is trauma-informed and modified throughout counseling services to reflect growth and ensure therapy remains relevant.
