Hi, I'm Tanya

I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over a decade of experience working with adults and couples who look like they have it together — and are quietly running on fumes underneath.

My practice is in Encino and Studio City in the San Fernando Valley, and I see clients virtually throughout California, Nevada, and Oregon. I specialize in anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, overthinking, relationship patterns, and life transitions — the kind of work that goes deeper than coping skills and actually changes what's underneath.

I work with professionals, creatives, founders, and ambitious people who are ready for therapy that has structure, depth, and real momentum.

This is what it sounds like when capable people start paying attention.

  • You built a life that works — and you're quietly exhausted by the machinery running underneath it.
  • Your mind doesn't stop. Not at 2 a.m. Not during the meeting. Not on the vacation you spent six months earning.
  • You over-prepare, over-explain, over-deliver, and call it conscientiousness.
  • You're the one everyone leans on — and you're starting to feel the cost of that.
  • Rest feels suspect. Slowing down feels worse than pushing through. You've achieved what you wanted and somehow feel further from yourself than when you started.

You're not broken. You're running a pattern that used to protect you and now just runs you. That's what we work with.

How I work

Therapy with direction.
Not just a place to vent.

01

Depth-Oriented

We go beneath the symptoms to the patterns running underneath. Lasting change happens at the root, not the surface.

02

Structured

Sessions have direction, clinical intention, and momentum. This isn't open-ended processing. It's focused, purposeful work.

03

Real-World

You leave with insight and tools you can actually use — at 9 a.m. on a Tuesday, in the middle of a hard conversation, in the moments that matter.

04

Collaborative

I don't sit back and nod. I think alongside you, brainstorm with you, and challenge you when something doesn't add up.
