About Tania
Tania Griswold is an MA, Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Massachusetts with 20 years of experience. She works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and relationship difficulties. She also helps clients dealing with low self-esteem and questions about life purpose and direction.
Tania focuses on straightforward, practical support. She helps people build self-love, improve communication, and clarify what matters next after a big life change. Sessions address panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, and the everyday impact of isolation and social anxiety.
She also helps with issues tied to relationships such as divorce and separation, control struggles, guilt and shame, and forgiveness work. Body image concerns and persistent worry about social situations are part of her caseload. The work often mixes talking through patterns and practicing new ways of relating to oneself and others.
Tania is fluent in English and Portuguese and brings that language flexibility into her conversations when needed. Her style is collaborative and person-centered, focusing on practical tools and clearer decision-making rather than abstract theory.
People often come seeking direction after career shifts, relationship changes, health events, or when long-standing patterns feel stuck. She guides clients in small, concrete steps toward clearer choices and steadier daily routines.
Therapeutic approaches you may use online
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques here are used in plain, practical ways. For example, approaches that focus on changing unhelpful thinking help people notice patterns of worry and practice different responses. This is often useful for anxiety, panic, and negative self-talk.Another common technique concentrates on processing traumatic memories in manageable steps and teaching grounding skills to reduce overwhelming reactions. That work supports people dealing with post-traumatic stress and panic symptoms.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and decide together which methods fit the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. This collaborative process includes checking how techniques feel in real life and adjusting them as needed.
Confirm the session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, make it easier to join from work or home, or let them have a shorter check-in when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt pacing and techniques for virtual meetings to focus on practical tools and clearer next steps.
