Tianna Burroughs (she/her) , LCSW

Tianna Burroughs is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of clinical experience working across community and inpatient settings. She earned an undergraduate degree in Human Development and Family Studies and a Master of Social Work from Indiana University in 2009, and has applied that training in home-based services, schools, youth shelters, residential programs, and inpatient psychiatric hospitalization.

Her practice draws on a broad range of experience with clients of all ages facing depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, substance use concerns, divorce, parenting stress, and crisis stabilization. Growing up in an under-resourced area of northern Indiana shaped her empathy and motivates her commitment to practical, strengths-based care. She describes her therapeutic stance as warm, compassionate, and nonjudgmental while also being honest and direct, honoring clients as experts on their own lives.

Tianna uses solution-focused and strength-based strategies alongside evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients understand how thoughts influence feelings and behaviors. She incorporates mindfulness and breathing techniques to support emotional regulation and invites ongoing feedback so therapy adapts to each person. On a personal note, she took several years off to raise twins and a teenage niece, has lived in Indiana, Texas, and Tennessee due to her spouse's career in mental health, and enjoys outdoor adventures, yoga, and interior design. She is not currently accepting new clients.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tianna integrates several evidence-based methods to support change in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and the behaviors those thoughts drive, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and improve daily functioning. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and developing psychological flexibility so clients can take meaningful action even when difficult emotions are present. Attachment-Based Therapy explores patterns formed in early relationships to improve current connection, trust, and relational coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tianna works collaboratively to determine what fits best for each person based on their needs, goals, and preferences. She values client feedback and adjusts methods to support practical progress.

Online therapy with Tianna is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity of care across life changes, and access support from home or other convenient locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who tailor treatment to individual circumstances.
