About
Tanya Mills is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Virginia who supports adults as they navigate relationship concerns, parenting challenges, depression, and struggles with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. She approaches therapy with the belief that each person is the expert on their own life story, and that meaningful change often starts by identifying strengths that may already be present but feel hard to access in the moment.
Seeking help can take real courage, especially when life feels stuck or overwhelming. Tanya works to create a supportive space where clients can explore what is getting in the way of feeling more fulfilled and steady, and where goals can be shaped into practical next steps. Her role is to encourage progress at a pace that feels manageable, while helping clients feel empowered as they move toward the changes they want to make.

Evidence-based tools, adapted for online therapy
Tanya Mills integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Therapy to help clients work through challenges like depression, self-esteem concerns, relationship stress, and major life changes.CBT focuses on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence one another. It helps clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice more balanced ways of thinking and responding. DBT adds practical skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication in relationships, which can be especially useful when conflict or overwhelm feels hard to control. Mindfulness Therapy supports greater awareness of the present moment, helping clients relate differently to stress, rumination, and self-criticism.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tanya collaborates with each client to clarify goals, understand what has and has not helped in the past, and choose strategies that fit the client’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible options, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This variety can make it easier to stay consistent, fit sessions into a busy schedule, and get support in a format that feels most comfortable.
