About Tandi

Tandi Orluk is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 18 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. She also addresses trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, addictions, sleep and eating problems, and workplace strain.

Her practice uses straightforward, client-centered work. She asks about a person's goals and focuses on practical steps to reach them. Sessions often mix brief skills practice with conversations about patterns that get in the way of daily life.

Tandi draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people change difficult thoughts and manage strong emotions. She also uses mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing techniques to support behavior change and clarity of purpose. These methods are applied in ways that fit the person's situation and goals.

She has experience helping people with mood disorders such as bipolar disorder, attention issues like ADHD, obsessive or panic symptoms, and post-traumatic stress. Additional focus areas include body image, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, and issues faced by veterans and members of the armed forces.

Tandi approaches sessions in practical terms: identifying small, manageable changes, practicing skills, and checking progress. She asks about what matters most to each person and builds sessions around those targets. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's matching and scheduling steps so a first appointment can be arranged.

BHow sessions work

How Tandi uses specific approaches in online care

Client-Centered Therapy means the therapist listens for what matters most and works from the client's goals. This approach focuses on clear goals and regular check-ins, which can help with day-to-day issues like stress, workplace strain, or relationship concerns.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. In practical terms this often looks like identifying unhelpful thought patterns, testing them, and practicing alternative behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, panic, or obsessive thinking.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness. People learn emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication techniques they can use between sessions when situations become difficult.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust based on what helps. That process happens through regular discussion and brief skill coaching so clients can see what works for them.

Session formats are not listed on the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. When arranging work, emphasize practical benefits: sessions can be scheduled to fit work and family demands, they avoid travel time, and the focus can be on short skills practice or longer conversations depending on need. This helps people fit therapy into busy lives without assuming a particular delivery method.
