I am licensed in Iowa, New Jersey, New York, Washington, Nevada, Iowa and Virginia with 7 years of professional work experience. I have a Master's degree in Social Work from Lehman College. I have experience in helping clients with managing stress and anxiety, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I treat adults ages 18+.
I work with children, teens, adults, and couples who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship challenges. Many feel stuck, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to move forward. They come seeking clarity, healing, and peace. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where they can process their experiences, build coping skills, and rediscover their strength helping them move from survival to stability and confidence.
Have you ever felt like you're accomplishing everything but still feel unfulfilled or unsatisfied? Do you give so much of yourself to others that little is left for you at the end of the day? Does your child's behaviors (fighting, defiance, truancy, argumentative) leave you wondering what's really going on beneath the surface. It just might be time to take a deeper look.
I’m Tiana Welch, a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, providing telehealth therapy for children, teens, and young adult/adult women. With six years of experience, I have supported clients facing many challenges, including mental health concerns, behavioral issues, and substance abuse. My passion lies in helping children, teens, and families take a deeper look at behaviors to uncover the root causes, and in supporting young adult and adult women as they peel back the layers of perfectionism, burnout, and societal expectations to reconnect with their true selves.
Outside of therapy, I enjoy attending Pilates and spin classes, coloring, painting, reading, and exploring new creative hobbies like learning to sew (this month).

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Charlottesville
Finding the right therapist in Charlottesville starts with identifying what kind of support you're looking for. Therapists in the area work with a wide range of concerns — from anxiety, depression, and trauma to relationship stress, life transitions, and postpartum mental health. Some providers specialize in specific approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, or Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Knowing whether you want talk therapy, couples counseling, or medication management from a psychiatrist can help you narrow your search.
Beyond specialty, practical details matter. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions at a Charlottesville office or virtual appointments from home. Check that a provider is licensed in Virginia and currently accepting new patients. Reading a provider's bio — including their approach, background, and what a first session looks like — can help you feel more confident before booking.
Therapy in Charlottesville can be expensive without insurance coverage. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce your out-of-pocket costs, and many patients pay as low as $0 per session depending on their plan. On Headway, you can enter your insurance information to see estimated session costs upfront before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who fits your needs and is covered by your plan.
