About Katiuska
Katiuska Tanner is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) who uses a cognitive behavioral approach to help families and individuals manage stress and find more balance. She writes plainly and focuses on practical steps parents can use at home. Katiuska aims to help people feel safer, reduce anxious thoughts, and build healthier daily habits through short, concrete goals.
She has been working in mental health since 2006 and providing therapy since 2012, bringing a decade of experience as a therapist.
Background and approach
Her background includes work in outpatient settings - both in homes and hospitals - inpatient care for stabilization, and the school system where she led group, individual, and family sessions. Before becoming a therapist she supported people with mental health and substance use concerns as a Case Manager.
Katiuska helps with common family and parenting challenges like stress, parenting strain, relationship tension, and grief. She also supports people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, addictions, eating issues, anger, self-esteem struggles, career stress, bipolar mood concerns, and intimacy questions. Sessions may use video, phone, live chat, or text messaging so families can choose what fits their routine.
Her work emphasizes clear coping skills, awareness of patterns, and steady small changes that add up. She practices in Florida and works in English. The focus is on helping people take practical steps toward stability and a more manageable family life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with more useful ones, focusing on actionable steps that ease anxiety and depressive patterns. This approach is practical and goal oriented, which fits well with video or phone sessions where homework and skill practice are reviewed together.She also draws on skills-based work that teaches coping tools for stress, anger, and parenting challenges. These tools are explained simply and practiced between sessions so parents can try them during daily routines and report back on what worked.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try strategies together, and adjust methods over time based on what helps most. That means the first sessions often include checking what feels doable and changing the plan if needed.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy families. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction when that is helpful. Phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging provide options when schedules or childcare make video harder. These formats make it easier to fit regular care into a family routine while keeping the focus on steady, practical progress.
