Great to meet you!

Hello, I'm Tanya, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Missouri-St. Louis School of Social Work, class of 2010. Born and raised on the west side of St. Louis city, I bring a deep understanding and connection to the community I serve. My focus is on supporting women through all stages of life and interpersonal growth, individuals with mental health diagnoses, those grappling with past experiences, and those facing relationship and work-related challenges.

For more than a decade, I have dedicated myself to working as an outpatient therapist, specializing in talk therapy for both children and adults dealing with attachment and trauma issues. Additionally, I have extensive experience as an in-home community health worker, primarily assisting an urban population of pregnant and parenting parents with mental health, relational, and social service needs. The last 3 years of my career have been spent working with the armed forces.

My approach to therapy

Tanya is the perfect therapist for you if you are seeking a collaborative process and a provider who respects that you are the expert of yourself.

What you can expect from me

The best therapeutic partnership is one where the client is goal-oriented, introspective, and ready to embrace support for change. Together, we will explore your current situation, identify where you want to be, and create a plan to help you grow and achieve your goals. My approach is collaborative and supportive, ensuring that you feel empowered throughout your journey.

I look forward to working with you and supporting you in reaching your full potential. Let's take the first step together!
