About Tonya

Tonya Boyett-Etheridge is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with ten years of practice. She works with adults who bring concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She also focuses on communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, post-traumatic stress, and self-love.

She uses straightforward conversation to help people name what feels most urgent and practical. Sessions often include exploring thoughts and feelings, learning specific coping skills, and practicing clearer communication. The work is goal-oriented and grounded in daily life, not abstract theory.

Tonya draws from client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s perspective. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) and existential ideas about meaning and values appear in her approach when they fit a client’s concerns.

Her background includes clinical roles in medical and mental health settings where she supported people through crisis, burn and trauma care, hospice, and work with military communities. That varied experience informs how she responds to grief, trauma, and high-stress situations in practical ways.

Tonya integrates personal faith into her work for clients who request that perspective, while also working with people who do not share her beliefs. She aims to help people rebuild routines, repair communication, and reduce symptoms that interfere with daily responsibilities.

BHow sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions and what to expect

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening to the person’s perspective and helping them find their own solutions. It is useful when someone needs clearer communication, emotional processing, or support building self-understanding.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thought that lead to distress and teaches practical skills to change those patterns. It often suits issues like anxiety, depression, and some addiction-related thinking habits.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotions and attachment-style responses in relationships. It can help people understand and regulate strong emotions and improve how they express needs to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tonya will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can change over time as goals and life demands change.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Confirm the current session formats when booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to schedule brief check-ins, use video when helpful, or choose an audio-only session when bandwidth or being on camera is difficult.
