About Tanya
Tanya Morrow is a licensed social worker with nearly four decades of clinical experience. She holds a Master of Science in Social Administration from Case Western Reserve University and practices in Ohio as an LISW and LCSW. Tanya moved into independent practice in 2017 after a long career in community mental health, including 24 years at Beech Brook.
She uses clear, straightforward talk in sessions and focuses on practical tools clients can apply between appointments.
Background and approach
Tanya draws on several approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR, to help people manage mood, anxiety, trauma, and addiction concerns. She also brings attention to identity and empowerment for women and people who identify as minority or disenfranchised. Tanya often helps people navigate parenting challenges, relationship stress, grief, and major life changes.
She also works with issues such as ADHD, chronic illness, caregiving strain, and body image. Her background includes work with adoption and foster care matters and attachment-related concerns. Sessions tend to be collaborative and goal-oriented.
Tanya listens, reflects what she hears, and suggests concrete steps to try between visits. Over time she and the person seeking help shape a plan that fits that person’s life and priorities. Her training includes Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.
Tanya offers services through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging, and she works in English.
How Tanya’s approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on identifying personal values and taking concrete steps that match those values while allowing difficult feelings to exist. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, and stress by making choices that matter to the person rather than getting stuck in avoidance.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, mood challenges, and coping with life transitions because it gives clear exercises to practice between sessions.
Tanya treats approach selection as a collaborative process. She will listen to each person’s goals, try different techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. Finding the right fit is part of the work rather than a one-time prescription.
Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These options let people connect from home, use brief check-ins between appointments, and pick the format that feels most comfortable. The variety of formats supports ongoing work and makes regular follow-up more achievable for many people.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
