About Tatiana

Tatiana Mitchell is a licensed professional clinical counselor with seven years of experience. She focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and other life changes. Tatiana speaks English and Russian and practices in Ohio as an LPCC.

She works with respect, sensitivity, and compassion in sessions. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. She tailors conversations and plans to each person's needs rather than using one fixed method.

Background and approach

Sessions are built around what someone wants to change and what feels doable for them. Tatiana encourages small steps that add up to meaningful progress. Tatiana draws from evidence-based methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy.

She can also incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and client-centered techniques when helpful. These tools are used to manage symptoms and build practical coping strategies. She brings experience helping with a wide range of concerns beyond the core issues, including grief, parenting challenges, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication problems, and body image.

Her work also includes support around LGBT issues, immigration-related stress, and mood or anxiety disorders. Tatiana aims to create a welcoming space where people feel heard and understood. She helps clients set clear goals, test out new coping skills, and track progress over time.

When someone is ready to begin, she guides them step by step through scheduling and starting therapy.

Approaches and online options that fit your life

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful when stress, anxiety, or life changes make it hard to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new ways of responding, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and mood symptoms. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people understand and express core emotions and strengthen emotional responses that support change.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tatiana works collaboratively to choose which methods fit a persons goals, preferences, and the problems they bring to sessions. She adjusts techniques over time so the work stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and continue work between meetings. Using a mix of formats lets people pick what feels most accessible while still learning skills and tracking progress.

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.

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.

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.
