Welcome!

I’m Dr. Tania, a passionate and skilled Florida-based licensed clinical psychologist who provides personalized, knowledgeable, and compassionate mental health services. I weave together my strong clinical experience and my authentic presence with my client’s desire to make a change, enabling lasting growth and healing to occur.

I am an experienced clinician with a strong educational and training background. I have practiced in various settings, treating a broad spectrum of symptoms, concerns, and presentations. My experience and knowledge are well integrated with connection, relationships, and my genuine caring presence.

I am dedicated to helping my patients develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their relationships, and their strengths, and helping them understand and discover what drives their actions and behaviors. I treat children, adolescents, and adults in individual therapy presenting with a range of difficulties including Anxiety, Depression & Sadness, Trauma & PTSD, Eating Disorders & Disordered Eating, Body Image & Dysmorphia, Internet & Social Media Dependence/Addiction, Relationship & Interpersonal Issues, Obsessions & Compulsions, Perfectionism & Burnout and other psychological presentations. I also work with individuals struggling with Life Transitions, Communication Difficulties, Attachment Difficulties, Relational Concerns and challenging Family Dynamics. I also provide Couples Therapy and Group Therapy.

I am an independently practicing licensed clinical psychologist in Maryland (license #06995) and Florida (license #PY12013). I see patients in Maryland exclusively via telehealth. I see patients in Florida both in person and by telehealth.

In addition, I hold a PSYPACT license (APIT #15089) which is an interstate compact designed to facilitate the practice of telepsychology & telehealth across state boundaries, allowing me work with individuals who reside in 37+ states across the United States. I offer telehealth services for individuals in the following states: AL, AZ, AR, CO, CT, DC, DE, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, ME, MD, MI, MN, MO, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NC, OH, OK, PA, RI, SC, TN, TX, UT, VA, WA, WV, WI, WY.

Theoretical Orientation

I provide high-quality mental health services rooted in science and compassion and I create a friendly, accepting and inclusive environment for all clients. I received extensive training in a variety of therapeutic orientations, specifically psychodynamic and psychoanalytic psychotherapy and cognitive-behavioral treatments including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Mindfulness-Based Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (MB-CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also enjoy utilizing Positive Psychology, Interpersonal/Relational Therapy, Existential-Humanistic Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in therapy sessions.

I approach mental health from a holistic perspective, recognizing the interconnectedness of mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual facets. I am committed to providing a compassionate listening space where you are invited to reflect upon and explore yourself, your deepest challenges and gifts. Through patient listening, reflecting, shared inquiry, and various interventions, I aim to help you become more aware of your patterns and thoughts so that you may gain an increased understanding and awareness of yourself and your difficulties and become clear and skillful about making meaningful choices.

My Therapeutic Style
My approach to mental health in general is characterized by an accepting and caring environment which is collaborative in nature. I am known for my empathic style, gentle directness and healthy dose of humor. Therapy with me is a collaborative, action-oriented process providing you the opportunity to foster new perspectives, discover your inherent worth, tap into your inner resources, and develop your capacity for resilience and new skills.

I show up authentically for each client and I value transparency and provide my full presence. Clients who work with me can expect to explore feelings, beliefs, and behaviors, understand memories, process destructive relationships, and identify dysfunction, which will lead to a better understanding of themselves and others. During therapy, there is an ongoing effort to develop effective coping skills, decrease emotional distress, improve functioning, and resolve symptoms and problems. Each therapy session is a balance of meeting your present needs and long-term goals. Collaboratively, we will deepen your understanding of yourself, your reactions to various emotions and increase your psychological flexibility and create new perspectives.

My Wishes for You

I wish you a life full of love, happiness, fulfillment and health. I am committed to helping you build and find it!

It is an honor to be trusted and to become a meaningful part of my patient’s lives.

Warmly,
