About Tania

Tania Garcia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 18 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, grief, eating issues, anger, ADHD, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish and she accepts international clients.

Clients can expect a straightforward, client-centered approach that focuses on practical change. Tania uses conversation to identify patterns that keep problems alive. She helps people notice thoughts and behaviors, try small changes, and track what works. The work is grounded in clear steps rather than vague promises.

Her toolbox draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors. Emotionally-focused work helps people understand feelings and improve important relationships. The Gottman Method is used to address couple interactions when relationship patterns are part of the problem. Tania pairs these methods with everyday mindfulness and existential reflection when people are facing life transitions.

Sessions aim to reduce tension, increase clarity, and improve how someone handles anger and conflict. She also helps people sort parenting stresses, blended family dynamics, adoption or foster care concerns, caregiver strain, and body image or eating-related struggles. The approach covers both immediate coping skills and longer term relationship changes.

Getting started involves completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How sessions work

Approaches used in online sessions

Many of Tania's methods translate well to remote work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and building a shared plan so clients can work through anger, stress, and relationship worries. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that fuel tension and teaches specific exercises to test and change those patterns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name difficult feelings and change how they respond in important relationships, which can reduce recurring conflict.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tania collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, concerns, and preferences. That process often starts by trying a skill or two and then adjusting direction based on what helps most.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins between responsibilities, avoiding travel time, or joining from a quieter setting. These practical benefits help people keep momentum while practicing skills between sessions.
