Tanya Roberts, LCSW - Therapist in California

About Tanya

Tanya Roberts is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 20 years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. She offers a calm, straightforward style that puts practical problem-solving first. Tanya listens closely and helps parents and individuals break big problems into manageable steps.

Her approach is warm and interactive, with respect and sensitivity at the center of her work. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Background and approach

Tanya blends that with natural and holistic ideas when appropriate. Sessions can be directive when a clear plan is needed or more exploratory when someone needs space to process feelings. She may use gentle humor to make difficult topics easier to talk about.

Tanya has supported people across a wide age range, and she is experienced with grief, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, and intimacy-related issues. She also works with career questions, midlife changes, and mood disorders including bipolar conditions. Additional areas of focus include cancer-related concerns, guilt and shame, isolation, life purpose, and women's and young adult issues.

She practices in California and conducts sessions in English. Tanya emphasizes matching the treatment to the person, not the other way around. She offers steady support while helping clients set realistic goals and try small changes that add up over time.

Tanya encourages anyone taking the first step to reach out. She aims to listen, guide, and help people find workable strategies for everyday life.

CBT and practical therapy online

Tanya commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings and then builds simple, practical steps to change them. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress-related issues.

She also brings natural and holistic ideas into sessions when that fits a person's needs. That can mean adding lifestyle and self-care strategies alongside CBT techniques to support mood and energy levels.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tanya works collaboratively with each person to decide what methods fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. She adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around parenting, work, and other demands. They also allow consistent contact so skills can be practiced between meetings and progress can continue from home.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
