About Tanya

Tanya Weekes brings twenty years of clinical experience to her work as a licensed clinical social worker. She practices in New York and focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, or trauma. Tanya aims to make the first steps toward help feel simple and manageable.

Background and approach

The tone in her work is direct but gentle, with attention to each person’s background and goals. Over two decades she has worked with a range of stress- and mood-related concerns. Her style blends coaching elements with clinical care to help clients find clearer coping strategies and regain confidence.

Tanya describes the therapy room as a place to talk honestly, try out new behaviors, and track what helps. She encourages regular feedback so the work stays focused on immediate problems and longer-term growth.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Many clients find benefit from focused, evidence-based techniques that target symptoms directly. One common approach emphasizes practical skill building to manage anxiety and panic attacks by teaching breathing, grounding, and stepwise exposure to feared situations. Another approach concentrates on mood and self-esteem by identifying negative thinking patterns and practicing new, balanced ways of thinking and behaving. Both approaches aim to give clear tools people can use between sessions to notice change and reduce distress.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to current problems, personal goals, and daily routines, then suggest strategies to try together. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so methods can be adjusted over time to match what works and what doesn’t.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people see facial cues and keep a closer sense of connection. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging make it easier to fit brief check-ins into a busy day and to get support without a full session. These options increase flexibility and make ongoing care easier to maintain for many people.
