About Tania
Tania Johnson is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, depression, and major life changes. She presents a calm, respectful approach and aims to make first steps feel manageable. Tania focuses on building a working relationship that matches each person's needs.
She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts conversations to what each person brings. Sessions are tailored to practical goals, such as improving daily coping, stabilizing mood, or increasing confidence.
How Tania works
Tania emphasizes clear, compassionate communication in sessions. Her work also extends to concerns like attachment and abandonment issues, body image, commitment and control problems, and relationship communication struggles. She supports people dealing with caregiver stress, divorce and separation, cancer-related distress, and the lingering emptiness that sometimes follows big life changes.
Tania brings three years of professional experience to her practice. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort and adjusts plans as progress unfolds. People can expect straightforward conversation and concrete steps between sessions.
She offers sessions in English and provides several online formats to fit busy schedules. The aim is to help people build skills that feel useful in everyday life and to support them as they move toward more stable routines and clearer goals.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques are used to keep sessions practical and focused. One common approach emphasizes structured conversations and skill practice to manage mood and anxiety; this helps people build tools they can use between sessions. Another approach focuses on understanding attachment and relationship patterns so people can change how they relate to others and reduce repeated hurtful cycles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will listen to each person's goals and preferences, then recommend or adjust methods together. This collaborative process helps tailor the plan as progress is made or priorities shift.
Online therapy offers flexibility and multiple ways to connect. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief updates, ongoing support between sessions, or a lower-pressure way to start therapy. These options make it easier to fit sessions into work, caregiving, or treatment schedules while keeping therapy consistent and accessible.
