About Tanya
Tanya Morrow is a licensed social worker with a long career in community mental health and independent practice. She earned a Bachelor’s degree from Ohio Wesleyan University and a Master of Science in Social Administration from Case Western Reserve University. Tanya brings 39 years of experience to her work and currently maintains licenses as an Ohio LISW and an Arizona LCSW.
Her style is practical and straightforward. Sessions focus on clear goals and developing skills that help with daily challenges.
Background and approach
She emphasizes self-understanding and small, steady changes rather than quick fixes. Tanya often supports people facing anxiety, stress, depression, trauma, grief, and issues with self-esteem. She also works with concerns such as addiction, bipolar mood challenges, compassion fatigue, and parenting-related stress.
She has a particular interest in supporting people who identify as female or who feel marginalized. Her background includes long-term work in community mental health and a 24-year tenure at a child and family services organization. Since 2017 she has worked in independent practice, seeing adults and adolescents.
Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods, chosen to match each person’s needs. In sessions she uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral and acceptance-based approaches, plus attachment-informed perspectives and EMDR when appropriate. Conversations cover coping skills, communication, decision-making, and adjustments for life changes.
The goal is clearer thinking and more effective behavior, guided by the client's values and priorities.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify personal values and take small steps toward them even when emotions are intense. It focuses on building flexible responses to hard thoughts and feelings rather than trying to eliminate them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and behavior in current relationships, and it helps people develop more supported ways of relating and communicating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and improve mood and behavior.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, personal preferences, and what has or hasn't worked in the past. Together they choose or adapt methods so sessions feel useful and match real-life needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to work together. Video calls let people see nonverbal cues and do deeper conversation. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, coping prompts, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into school, work, parenting, and other commitments.
