Tanya Younce, LPCC

Tanya Younce is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. She offers steady support for those facing grief, trauma, parenting strain, career stress, or difficult life transitions. Tanya brings two decades of experience in mental health to each conversation.

Her work starts with listening and learning what matters most to the person across from her. She focuses on practical steps people can take to feel more in control and less overwhelmed. Sessions often include clear tools and simple exercises to practice between meetings.

Tanya uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy along with attachment-based and client-centered approaches to shape her work. That means she helps clients spot unhelpful thoughts and patterns, understand how early relationships affect current reactions, and guides conversations in a warm, respectful way.

She has a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from James Madison University and a Master of Arts in Clinical Counseling from Xavier University in Cincinnati. Tanya holds an Ohio LPCC credential and has worked at many levels of mental health care over 20 years.

People who choose her often want straightforward strategies and compassionate support. She teaches skills for coping, challenges limiting beliefs, and works on repairing connection where intimacy or communication have become strained. Her goal is to help people build tools that last beyond therapy.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Online sessions can follow the same practical work Tanya uses in person, starting with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems alive. CBT offers clear steps and homework so people can test small changes between sessions, which works well over video or messaging.

Attachment-Based Therapy is also part of her work and focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online conversations can help people notice attachment responses, practice new ways of relating, and rehearse different communication strategies in real time.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adapt techniques over time. That means methods may shift as progress is made or new needs appear.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video allows face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone sessions are useful for lower bandwidth or when stepping away from a screen. Chat and messaging offer shorter check-ins, ongoing reflections, or a way to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to attend regularly and keep momentum between sessions.
