About Tanya
Tanya Baker is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Indiana with 22 years of experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, low confidence, and major life changes. Tanya also addresses concerns such as career strain, guilt and shame, loneliness, and issues that arise in midlife.
Tanya focuses on practical conversation and clear steps. Sessions focus on understanding what keeps a problem alive now, and on small, doable changes people can use between meetings. She helps people name painful feelings and learn how those feelings affect daily choices.
Her approach draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood problems, panic, trauma reactions, and struggles with self-esteem. Tanya talks through options with clients and looks at what has worked and what has not. She helps people try new ways of coping that fit their life.
Tanya treats issues connected to relationships, sexuality, and workplace stress by helping people find clearer priorities and boundaries. She also supports veterans and people concerned about control, abandonment, or impulsive behavior. Conversations include practical tools and real-world problem solving.
Sessions are conducted in English and Tanya works with international clients as well. The process begins with a short questionnaire to match needs and schedule an initial session. Tanya aims to make next steps straightforward for someone taking the first step toward feeling less stuck.
Evidence-based methods and online sessions
Evidence-based techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and on building new coping habits. Cognitive approaches look at the thoughts that fuel anxiety, guilt, and low self-worth, and teach skills for testing and shifting those thoughts. Behavioral strategies emphasize small, practical steps you can try between sessions to reduce panic, improve mood, and increase confidence.Exposure-based or skills-focused methods can help with panic attacks and avoidance patterns by encouraging gradual, supported practice of feared situations. These approaches tend to be concrete and task-oriented, which makes progress easier to notice over time.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tanya will talk with each person about goals, past attempts, and personal preferences, and then suggest a way forward. She adapts methods based on what feels workable for the person rather than imposing a single technique.
