About Tanya
Dr. Tanya Harrell is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) practicing in Louisiana with seven years of experience. She works with adults on concerns such as stress, anxiety, family patterns, parenting, grief, depression, and self-esteem. Dr. Harrell also addresses issues like addictions, ADHD, relationship difficulties, and intimacy-related challenges.
Her background includes counseling people from diverse circumstances. That work has included supporting those affected by domestic violence and other traumatic experiences, and helping families who have faced homelessness. These roles shaped how she listens and responds to recurring family dynamics and attachment concerns.
In sessions she uses approaches drawn from cognitive behavioral methods and acceptance-oriented work. She focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings. Conversations often look at habits, beliefs, and coping strategies that keep problems going.
Dr. Harrell also brings attachment-based ideas into sessions to look at how early family roles and expectations continue to affect current relationships. She helps clients name patterns that came from the family they grew up in and consider different ways of relating now.
Her style emphasizes clear, direct discussion about problems and possible solutions. People can expect straightforward talk about symptoms, day-to-day challenges, and achievable coping skills. To begin, prospective clients follow the site process to match and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying values and taking committed steps toward them while accepting difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, stress, and choices that feel stalled. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that maintain problems and teaches concrete skills to change them, which is useful for anxiety, mood, and sleep issues. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early family roles and expectations still shape relationships now and helps people notice and shift those patterns. Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Harrell discusses options with each person and together they decide which methods match the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative selection can change over time as progress and hurdles become clearer. The site notes session logistics during booking, so confirm the current online session options before scheduling. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example by avoiding travel, fitting a session into a work break, or choosing a shorter check-in when time is tight. Some approaches lend themselves to homework and short between-session tasks that work well with remote meetings.
