About Tanaya

Tanaya Reid is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, LGBT identity, family issues, grief, and coping with life changes. She works with adults who are navigating transitions or looking to improve how they relate to others.

Her sessions begin with listening to the practical problems people bring. She helps clients map out what is happening now, identify the most pressing stressors, and set short-term goals. Conversations cover feelings, relationship patterns, and real-world steps people can take between meetings.

Tanaya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to build coping skills and different ways of handling conflict. She emphasizes clear, practical strategies people can use at home, at work, or in their relationships. Cultural identity and lived experience are taken into account when discussing options.

When grief is present, she offers structured ways to process losses and manage the day-to-day impact. For relationship concerns, sessions look at communication habits and problem-solving skills rather than labels. For life changes, she focuses on adjustment strategies and planning practical next steps.

Clients can expect collaborative sessions that balance exploration with action. Tanaya aims to help people develop more effective routines, stronger communication, and clearer next steps for the challenges they bring to therapy.

BHow sessions work

How evidence-based techniques are used in online sessions

Tanaya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide online work. One common approach she uses is structured coping skills work, which teaches practical strategies for managing strong emotions and daily stressors. This helps when people are dealing with grief or sudden life changes.

She also uses approaches that focus on relationship patterns and communication. These methods break down how people interact and suggest concrete changes in how they speak and listen to each other. That kind of work is useful for resolving conflict and improving day-to-day interactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the first conversations. The therapist will review what matters most to the client and try approaches that match those goals. This is a collaborative process with regular check-ins to see what is helping and what to change.

Confirm the session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare, or other commitments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight and reduce travel time, which helps therapy fit into everyday life.
