About Tania
Tania Patricca is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 27 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse.
Background and approach
Her approach starts with listening closely so people feel heard and can begin to untangle what’s getting in the way of daily life. She believes clients know their story best and brings active listening to move inner conflict into words.
From there she offers practical skills to reduce emotional suffering. That can include tools for managing panic, improving self-esteem, and coping with big life changes.
Tania uses a mix of approaches that match the person in front of her. She draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow a person’s pace, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and Mindfulness practices to build calm and focus.
She also uses elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and the Gottman Method where those approaches fit the needs presented. Her work often addresses attachment and communication problems, feelings of isolation or shame, dissociation, and compassion fatigue.
She helps people work through intimacy-related concerns and explore questions of life purpose and self-love. Beginning therapy is framed as a collaborative process.
Tania helps clients set clear goals and teaches skills they can use between sessions to feel more balanced and in control.
Online Approaches That Fit Your Life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on following the person’s lead and creating space to tell their story. It’s useful when someone needs acceptance and steady listening before trying new skills. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and the behaviors that follow, which can ease anxiety, depression, and panic. The Gottman Method brings specific communication and interaction strategies that can help people learn clearer ways to talk about intimacy-related concerns and relationship patterns.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals, concerns, and preferences and then suggest which methods to try first. Plans can change over time if needs shift, and techniques from different approaches may be combined to match those evolving goals.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls let a person work face-to-face from wherever they are. Phone sessions can fit into a lunch break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text sessions are useful for shorter check-ins, written processing, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help people keep therapy consistent around work, family, and daily life.
