About Tanja

Tanja Hoenscheidt is an LPC based in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience helping people navigate a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns. She builds her practice around an affirming, person-centered ethos that emphasizes respect, empathy, and practical skills.

Background and approach

Tanja blends evidence-informed methods to address issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and concerns related to self-esteem and identity. Her work often includes developing coping strategies, improving communication, and strengthening self-awareness so clients can manage symptoms and make meaningful changes.

Tanja integrates approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside acceptance-based and mindfulness-oriented methods to tailor care to each individual's needs. She frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at clarifying values, reducing unhelpful patterns, and supporting recovery from mood and impulse concerns.

Clients can expect a warm, respectful clinician who prioritizes listening and practical tools. Tanja also works with issues such as bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, relationship difficulties, and specialized topics including adoption and foster care, aging concerns, autism spectrum issues, and smoking or vaping cessation.

Therapeutic approaches and online care tailored to you

CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through structured exercises and skill building; it is often used for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood regulation challenges. ACT emphasizes clarifying personal values and learning to accept difficult internal experiences while committing to meaningful action, which can be helpful for stress, avoidance, and living with chronic emotional pain. Client-centered therapy centers the relationship and the individual's experience, offering empathy and reflection to support self-exploration and growth.

Tanja treats the choice of approach as a collaborative decision. She will work with each client to explore which methods fit their goals, preferences, and presenting concerns, adapting techniques as the therapeutic relationship and needs develop.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide greater flexibility for scheduling and communication style. These formats can make it easier to access ongoing support without travel, accommodate busy routines, and allow for follow-up between sessions when useful. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches effectively across remote formats to help clients build skills, clarify values, and manage symptoms over time.
