About Tanya
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 22 years of experience. Tanya Parra focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. She helps people who are managing hard situations and looking for practical ways forward.
Tanya draws on two decades of work in clinical settings. Her background includes time in a detox program and work in a jail-based setting with inmates. That experience informs how she listens and what she notices when people describe crises or ongoing struggles.
She approaches sessions by treating the client as the expert in their own story. Tanya looks for the strengths a person already has and helps them use those strengths to respond differently to problems. Conversations are direct and focused on what a person wants to change and how to get started.
Tanya’s work centers on practical, evidence-based techniques applied to everyday problems. Sessions typically involve learning strategies for managing stress and anxiety, addressing patterns linked to substance use, and responding to the effects of trauma and depression. She also helps people plan for life transitions and cope with change.
People who choose Tanya can expect an emphasis on clear goals and steady progress. She offers straightforward guidance and checks in about what is working. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Tanya’s approaches translate to online sessions
Tanya uses practical, evidence-based techniques that help with symptoms and daily functioning. Cognitive-based techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying out clearer ways of thinking and acting. These methods are commonly used for anxiety and depression and aim to teach skills you can use between sessions. Behavioral strategies focus on changing routines and responses to cravings or stress. These approaches help with addictions and coping during life transitions and recovery.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tanya collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what is helping and what is not, so the methods evolve with the client’s situation.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking. The practical benefit of online work is that it can fit into a busy life more easily. Online options can reduce travel time, make it simpler to have brief check-ins during a break, or allow sessions when leaving home would be difficult. Talk with Tanya during the matching process about how sessions can be scheduled to fit day-to-day routines.
