Tanya McClung, LCMHC, LCPC

Tanya McClung is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in West Virginia with ten years of counseling experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strains, relationship concerns, and major life changes. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than labels or jargon.

She trained in social work at Concord University and holds a master’s degree in professional counseling from Liberty University. Tanya uses approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and client-centered therapy to guide conversations and plan small changes. Her work also draws on existential and Jungian ideas when those perspectives help a person make sense of meaning and identity.

Tanya helps people who are coping with trauma and abuse, attachment and family of origin issues, and complex circumstances like chronic illness or co-morbid presentations. She also lists blended family issues, adoption and foster care concerns, and parenting difficulties among her focus areas. Her style is focused on identifying patterns and testing practical alternatives to unhelpful thinking.

In sessions she talks through immediate problems and looks for underlying causes that keep the same difficulties repeating. She uses skill-building from CBT and DBT alongside reflective, client-centered conversations. Where helpful, she can pull in Jungian or existential ideas to address identity, meaning, and life transitions.

Her background includes group facilitation and experience with a range of clinical methods. People interested in starting therapy are asked to use the site steps to match and schedule a first session.
