Tanya Younce

Tanya Younce is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, anger, grief, or big life changes. Tanya focuses on practical steps people can use to manage emotions and get through hard moments.

She sees therapy as a guided journey. Tanya listens closely, points out patterns that get in the way, and helps people try different ways of responding. Sessions often include talking through relationship and family concerns, working on self-esteem, and managing work or caregiving stress.

Tanya draws on several approaches to meet each person where they are. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at how close relationships shape feelings. Client-Centered methods keep the conversation focused on the person's priorities and experience. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors.

Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from James Madison University and a Master’s degree in clinical counseling from Xavier University in Cincinnati. That education is paired with two decades of clinical work across different mental health settings.

In sessions, Tanya aims for clear, realistic steps. She supports people working through trauma, family-of-origin issues, divorce and separation, parenting stresses, and intimacy or communication struggles. Her approach is practical, grounded, and focused on building skills people can use after therapy ends.

How her approaches translate to online work

Tanya uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how people connect with others and how those patterns affect emotions and reactions. This approach helps when relationship dynamics, intimacy issues, or family-of-origin concerns are part of the problem. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the conversation focused on the person's experience and goals, creating space to be heard and to set priorities for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy targets the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers clear tools to shift unhelpful patterns.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Tanya will talk with each person about what feels most useful and adjust methods as goals evolve. Together they decide whether to emphasize relationship patterns, present-moment coping skills, or changes in thinking and behavior.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example, it can reduce travel time, allow check-ins between commitments, or make scheduling during a work break more practical. Many people find this flexibility helps them maintain consistency and apply what they learn between sessions.
