About Tyania

Tyania McConnell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with ten years of experience as a psychotherapist. She holds social work credentials listed as CSW and LMSW and practices with a focus on adult concerns. Her stated areas include stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, career challenges, ADHD, and coping with life changes.

She works in a straightforward, person-focused way. Sessions are meant to identify practical steps and clearer thinking. She listens for strengths and habits that can be changed to reduce overwhelm. Work can include short-term coaching or longer therapeutic conversations depending on the situation.

Tyania uses several common approaches to guide sessions. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her practice and keeps the conversation focused on each person's priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps break unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into manageable parts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Mindfulness tools are also available to teach emotion regulation and present-moment awareness.

She brings clinical experience gained across a range of concerns, including caregiver stress, adoption and foster care questions, chronic illness, and blended family issues. The tone of sessions aims to be practical and direct, with clear options to try between meetings.

Sessions are offered for adults in English and are based in Georgia. Prospective clients are asked to use the site flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to begin.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's priorities and keeps the therapist listening for what matters most. This approach helps shape online conversations around immediate problems and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down thoughts and actions into steps you can work on between sessions, which can be useful for stress, anxiety, and mood concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for regulating intense emotions and handling conflict, which suits people needing tools to reduce reactivity.

Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on what feels most useful. Clients and the therapist check in on progress and switch strategies when needed so work stays practical and goal-focused.

Confirm the current session formats before booking since this profile does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. It also lets people practice skills in real-life settings between meetings. Talk with the therapist during the matching process about the session length and style that best fit everyday routines.
