About Tanya
Tanya Weekes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in New York with 20 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and coaching for life transitions. Her practice includes focused help for panic attacks, social anxiety and phobia, and women's issues.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and day-to-day problems. Sessions are practical and goal-focused. Tanya helps people identify patterns that keep them stuck and build simple skills to manage symptoms and handle triggers.
Treatment plans emphasize concrete strategies that fit everyday life. That can include short-term skill building for panic and anxiety, and longer conversations about trauma and self-worth. Tanya pays attention to cultural background and how life roles affect stress and mood.
She approaches therapy as collaborative problem-solving rather than lectures. The clinician listens to what is working and what is not, then tests small changes and measures progress. People leave sessions with specific steps to try between meetings.
Tanya practices in New York and sees adults who want a practical, experienced social worker to help them manage anxiety, depression, trauma recovery, and related concerns. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based techniques are used online
Many evidence-based techniques focus on teaching concrete skills. Cognitive approaches help people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice alternative responses, which can reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Exposure-based methods involve gradual, supported steps toward feared situations and can be effective for panic attacks and social phobia.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review symptoms, goals, and preferences together and adjust methods as needed. That collaborative process helps pick techniques that fit the person's life and concerns rather than using a single fixed plan.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as specific options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow more timely check-ins during stressful periods. They also allow therapists to use screenshares, worksheets, and between-session tasks to support progress without promising particular outcomes.
