Dr. Tanya Harrell, LPC

Dr. Tanya Harrell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana. She brings seven years of counseling experience and a calm, compassionate presence to sessions. She aims to help people handle stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and other life difficulties including issues around addiction and self-esteem.

She uses an approach rooted in humanistic and existential ideas, which helps people reflect on meaning, values, and purpose. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques are also part of her work, focused on practical steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. These methods are applied in ways that match each person's needs and situation.

Harrell has worked with people from many backgrounds and with a range of challenges. Her experience includes supporting survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, working with homeless families and children, and helping people navigate trauma. That background informs a careful, respectful style in sessions.

She centers the relationship with the person she is helping and listens closely to their perspective. Sessions typically aim to build on a person’s strengths and identify clear, doable goals. Dr. Harrell also provides support for concerns such as parenting stress, attachment issues, body image, sleep and eating difficulties, and coping with major life changes.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then move toward actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and aims to build safer, more predictable ways of relating, which can help with abandonment or intimacy-related concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical strategies for changing unhelpful patterns, often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating issues.

Finding the right approach is often part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That shared process may include trying different techniques and adjusting the focus over time.
