Dr. Tanya Harrell, LPC

Dr. Tanya Harrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people manage stress and anxiety while they navigate life’s changes. She combines practical tools with a person-focused approach so clients can better understand their feelings and make small, useful changes. Her tone is compassionate and direct, aimed at people who need steady, clear support.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and build new coping skills. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to focus on relationships and the therapeutic bond. Those approaches inform how she helps with trauma, grief, relationship struggles, and parenting concerns.

Her background includes work with people affected by domestic violence, sexual trauma, homelessness, and other hardships. She has clinical experience with adults and children and with a range of concerns such as depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD, addictions, and eating or sleep problems. That mix of settings shaped a practical style that values real-world solutions.

Sessions aim to clarify what matters most to each person and to strengthen coping strategies that fit daily life. She emphasizes empathy and listening, then introduces specific exercises drawn from proven approaches. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Dr. Harrell practices in Louisiana and has seven years of counseling experience. She offers care in English and accepts international clients. People interested in starting are invited to complete the matching process to see if her approach fits their needs.

How her approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small, meaningful steps even when anxiety or stress are present. It focuses on what matters most and on actions that fit those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry, sleep problems, or low mood. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how relationships shape reactions and helps people build more secure ways of relating and coping.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. In sessions she will listen to your goals and concerns and then suggest techniques that match your needs. The choice of methods is collaborative and can shift as therapy progresses to fit what helps most.

The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue care when life events make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively to teach coping skills, practice new responses, and track progress over time.
