Tanya Carcamo , LMFT

Tanya Carcamo is a California-licensed LMFT - a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - with 13 years of clinical experience supporting people through difficult transitions and emotional challenges. She works with adults facing stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and struggles with motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Tanya also focuses on communication difficulties, forgiveness, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.

Tanya approaches each person with respect for their knowledge of their own life, believing that clients are the experts on their stories. She centers therapy on the strengths individuals already possess and partners with them to build skills and clarity that move toward a more fulfilling life. Seeking change takes courage, and Tanya aims to support and empower people as they take those first steps toward growth and healing.

Her work emphasizes practical, evidence-informed strategies tailored to each person's goals and circumstances. Tanya creates a compassionate and collaborative space where clients can explore losses, process painful experiences, and cultivate greater confidence and purpose in daily life.

Evidence-Informed Care and Online Support

Tanya uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques tailored to the concerns she treats. For stress and anxiety she employs skills-focused work that helps people identify unhelpful patterns, build coping strategies, and practice techniques to reduce day-to-day distress. For trauma, abuse, and grief she applies trauma-informed and loss-focused approaches designed to help individuals process painful experiences at a pace that feels manageable and to integrate those experiences into a renewed sense of self. She also supports the development of self-esteem and purpose by helping clients explore values, strengthen self-compassion, and set achievable goals that align with their priorities.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tanya works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as therapy progresses so that the plan fits each person’s life and healing journey.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility for engaging in this work. Through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, clients can access consistent support without the constraints of travel, and can choose the communication style that best suits their schedule and comfort. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to deliver effective, structured care that meets clients where they are.
