Tanya L. Tibby , LCSW

Tanya L. Tibby is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with more than 20 years of clinical and leadership experience. She has supported people facing a broad range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship and family issues, parenting challenges, self-esteem and career questions, as well as trauma and abuse. Her work also addresses addictions, grief, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes among other mood and adjustment difficulties.

Her counseling style is warm and relaxed, grounded in respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She avoids stigmatizing labels and focuses on each person’s strengths and goals. Tanya draws from a blend of approaches - including cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, narrative, strength-based, and solution-focused methods - and she adapts conversations and treatment plans to meet individual needs.

Tanya emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies while also attending to deeper patterns such as attachment and family-of-origin issues. Seeking a more fulfilling life takes courage, and she offers supportive guidance to help people make meaningful changes. She is currently providing sessions for existing and previously seen clients in Florida by appointment only; existing and new clients may message to complete a consultation and determine next steps.

Tanya holds the LCSW credential, which indicates licensure to provide clinical social work and psychotherapy services in Florida.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tanya integrates several evidence-informed approaches to meet a range of needs. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early bonds influence present relationships and helps people address abandonment and attachment issues to build more secure connections. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes the client's perspective, offering a nonjudgmental space where goals and pacing are guided by the person's values and preferences; it is often helpful for self-esteem, life transitions, and relationship concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing practical skills to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the therapeutic process. Tanya works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, try methods that align with their goals, and adjust the plan as progress unfolds. That joint exploration helps ensure therapy feels appropriate and useful.

Online therapy with Tanya can take place by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and varying comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care from home or other locations and to choose the format that best supports engagement and progress. Please note she currently provides sessions for existing and previously seen clients in Florida by appointment only.
