About Tanay
Tanay Hudson uses a practical, skill-focused approach to help people manage everyday stress and big life shifts. She is a licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of experience and is based in New York. Tanay keeps sessions straightforward and focused on clear steps clients can try between meetings.
She often works with people facing anxiety, depression, grief, and trauma and abuse. She also helps with career concerns, self-esteem struggles, relationship and family stress, parenting challenges, and mood disorders.
How Tanay works
Additional concerns she addresses include body image, caregiver stress, panic attacks, seasonal affective disorder, and issues common to young adults and women. Tanay commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. She helps clients notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new skills that reduce worry and improve mood.
Sessions typically include goal setting, coping strategies, and short exercises to try between meetings. Her style is direct but warm. She creates a calm space for people to talk through difficult experiences without judgment.
Clients can expect practical tools, regular check-ins on progress, and collaborative planning. To start, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions based on Tanay's availability. Sessions are offered in English and can be scheduled in several online formats including video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging.

Online support options
Using CBT and online formats to manage stress and change
Tanay commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps people see how thoughts affect feelings and actions. CBT focuses on simple, practical exercises and small behavior changes that can reduce anxiety, lift mood, and ease stress. It is often useful for panic, social anxiety, depression, and pattern-based problems like negative self-talk.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tanay works collaboratively to match techniques to a person's goals and daily life. She reviews progress together and adjusts plans so the strategies fit what a person needs and prefers.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions require less bandwidth, live chat gives a shorter check-in option, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving routines while still using CBT tools and regular accountability.
