About Tia
Tia Gross is a Maryland-based clinician who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and addiction. She supports adults facing life transitions, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, career shifts, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Tia is listed with the credentials MD and LCPC and brings 16 years of experience to her practice.
Tia draws on straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She works collaboratively with each person to identify strengths and small, manageable changes.
How Tia works
Conversations focus on skills that can be used between sessions and steps to ease day-to-day struggles. Her background includes work in correctional settings, outpatient clinics, and community programs. That mix of settings shaped a flexible approach to problem solving and a familiarity with many life circumstances.
She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Towson University and a Master of Science in Applied Psychology - Counseling from the University of Baltimore. Tia favors relational and strength-based work alongside cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques. This means she pays attention to the relationship in the room while teaching clear tools for thinking and behavior.
She adapts her style to match what each person needs at that moment. Sessions aim to build on what already works and to reduce what gets in the way. Tia encourages planning that leads to measurable progress and to new ways of handling stress, emotions, and relationships.
Her focus is on helping people move toward more meaningful and stable chapters in their lives.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care
Many clients benefit from cognitive-behavioral approaches that focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with small behavior changes. CBT-style work is useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and many everyday stressors. Solution-focused techniques emphasize setting short-term goals and building on what already works, which helps people move forward quickly with practical steps.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and history, then adjust methods as needed. That partnership makes it easier to try tools that fit the client's life and to refine the plan over time.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging let clients check in between sessions or use shorter, focused exchanges when that suits them. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, family, and other commitments.
