Tyania McConnell

Tyania McConnell is a licensed social worker with ten years of psychotherapy experience. She emphasizes each person’s strengths and treats the client as the expert in their own story. Tyania aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and supported.

She holds LCSW, CSW, and LMSW credentials and practices in Georgia. Her work centers on common life stresses such as anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem concerns. She also helps people facing career strain, compassion fatigue, and the fallout from trauma and abuse.

Tyania uses practical, down-to-earth methods in session. She draws on client-centered techniques to follow the client’s lead. She incorporates cognitive behavioral strategies to spot patterns of thought and behavior that keep problems going.

Mindfulness tools and dialectical behavior ideas appear when clients need skills for emotion regulation and staying present. She also uses existential perspectives to help people find meaning when life changes or losses feel overwhelming.

Her additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, blended family concerns, first responder issues, and coping with disasters. These topics are woven into treatment when relevant to a person’s goals and daily life.

Tyania encourages clear, practical goals and regular check-ins. She supports clients who want coaching-style help as well as those looking for psychotherapy. Clients who choose to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions.

How therapy approaches are used online

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s priorities. The therapist reflects what matters most and helps people set goals that feel doable. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches skills to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Treatment plans are adjusted based on how someone responds and what feels most useful in day-to-day life.

Confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also accommodate people who want coaching-style support alongside psychotherapy. Ask about available session lengths and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire.
