About Tanya
Tanya Weekes is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in New York with 20 years of experience. She focuses on concerns such as anxiety, stress, depression, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and coaching. Tanya also works with panic disorder and social anxiety and phobia, and she addresses women's issues in her practice.
Her approach emphasizes practical work in sessions. She listens to what feels most urgent and helps people develop clear steps they can try between meetings. Sessions often include talking through reactions, practicing simpler ways of handling social situations, and building skills for managing panic symptoms.
Over two decades she has supported people dealing with long-term anxiety and the fallout of trauma. That background means she often combines short-term skill building with attention to deeper patterns that keep problems repeating. Tanya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide this work.
She frames therapy as cooperative problem-solving. The focus is on what someone wants to change, concrete methods to try, and checking what works. People who find public speaking, meeting new people, or being observed stressful will find the sessions oriented toward practical steps for those moments.

How her evidence-based approaches translate online
Tanya draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide online sessions. One common approach she uses is cognitive-based work that looks at thoughts and behavior patterns; this helps people notice unhelpful thinking in social situations and try different responses. Another common approach focuses on skills for panic - gradual exposure to feared sensations and short breathing or grounding practices to reduce intense symptoms.Finding the right mix of techniques is part of the process. Tanya collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and what they want to try. She will review what helps, adjust methods, and add new tools as needed so the work stays practical and goal-oriented.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since none are listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a day - sessions can be scheduled around work, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone practice social skills in the environments where they feel challenged. The therapist and client decide together how to structure sessions so they fit everyday life and the tasks the client wants to address.
