Hi there, I'm Tanya. I enjoy supporting youth to Millennials who are facing stress, anxiety, depression and ADHD, amongst a variety of other emotional difficulties. Life has been difficult, especially throughout these unprecedented times, and can result in troubles with worrying, focus and attention, low self-esteem, feelings of isolation, and overwhelming negative thoughts. It's not easy. The good news is that despite these difficulties, counselling can help turn the tide around; it offers a safe space to gain new insights, coping skills, and confidence to overcome challenges and start feeling better.

I am passionate about helping people and supporting them as they evolve and develop through the ups and downs called "Life".

*CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* Navigating mental health struggles in young adulthood can feel overwhelming and isolating. As a queer individual, my lived experiences have led me to develop a warm, compassionate, and understanding perspective. As a counsellor, this enables me to hold a non-judgmental and thoughtful space for the people I work with and can help them feel seen, heard, and not alone.

I'm an Occupational Therapist, working primarily in mental health and in with autistic/ADHD populations. I do have ADHD myself, and find that to be a strength when working with other neurodivergent people. I see clients virtually on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. Typical topics covered are: self-compassion, executive functioning, distress tolerance, sensory sensitivities, education on neurodivergency and mental health, small goals to address your current specific needs (social, work, hobbies, sleep, self-care, physiological needs), and helping to connect to other resources.

You may face sadness, worry, repetitive thoughts, following experiences that are tough to talk about, violence and trauma resulting in numbness, isolation. Maybe you want to dig deeper, to better understand these events and how they are impacting your life now. You may feel increasingly ready to move through and beyond the difficulties you face, to embrace what feels more like the real you. I am trained to work creatively with folks who are in the midst of life’s challenges, to help them process and cope with their emotions. I know how to work with trauma, survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence, depression and anxiety.

I have been a registered social worker (RSW) in Nova Scotia since 2022 after immigrating from Los Angeles, California where I practiced as a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). Prior to HRM, I had been working with formerly unhoused veterans and their families in the Greater Los Angeles community through the US Veterans' Healthcare Administration for ten years. I currently work with adults and older adults (18+), veterans, military, and first responders. Those in the LGBTQ+, multicultural, and polyamorous/ENM communities. As well as many others struggling with mental health challenges.

When we are experiencing a stressful life event, a challenging medical diagnosis or chronic condition, or just facing a difficult period of our life, it is not uncommon that we may feel overwhelmed with new changes, unsettled thoughts and emotions, and need someone to talk to. Both individuals and caregivers may feel stressed and uncertain about the future. As we encounter life's difficulties, we all may need help coping at some point in our life. I am committed to helping my clients ease their distress, and find a healthy sense of well-being and more helpful and bonding connections in their relationships.

I'm glad to be offering free consultations and timely openings for new clients interested in virtual sessions. Healing and moving towards your goals is a path you don't have to navigate alone. Your self-discovery journey can be amplified and enriched through a meaningful therapeutic relationship.

Rooted in creating an authentic connection, I deliver therapy in a way that feels supportive for you to navigate the many facets of life with greater ease.

Healing from trauma isn't about "fixing" something that's broken within you; it's a profound unravelling of rediscovering and embracing the parts of yourself that have remained hidden in the shadows of fear and chaos. It's about dismantling destructive patterns created out of survival so that you can reconnect and come home to your authentic SELF. It's about learning to live with a full range of experiences and emotions and feeling as though you are capable, worthy, and enough.

Are you feeling a bit stuck in the daily grind, like life's just passing you by? Maybe you're finding it hard to focus, and those anxious thoughts just won't let up, making it tough to get a good night's sleep or stay present in the moment. And in your relationships, do emotionally-charged conflicts keep popping up, leaving you feeling lost when it comes to expressing yourself and putting your needs first? I get it. It's not easy to show up as your true, authentic self when feelings of guilt, shame, fear, or sadness are holding you back. But here's the thing – you don't have to do it alone.
