About Tania
Tania Garcia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 18 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, and grief. She also works with depression, eating and anger issues, coping with life changes, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish, and she accepts international clients.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral techniques. In practical terms this means she pays attention to feelings and patterns in relationships, listens for what matters most, and offers tools to test new ways of interacting. Conversations are direct and focused on small, usable shifts that a person can try between sessions.
Tania draws on a mix of approaches when needed, including existential ideas about meaning and the Gottman Method for relationship patterns. She often combines exploring emotions with concrete skills for communication and managing intense reactions. Sessions can include coaching-style work to set short-term goals and track progress.
Her background includes long clinical practice across individual and relational concerns, with experience related to adoption and foster care, aging issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, codependency, and family of origin problems. She describes therapy as a collaborative process focused on clearer thinking and improved interaction.

How her approaches adapt to online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on identifying and reshaping emotional patterns in relationships. It helps when people feel stuck in cycles of withdrawal, blaming, or disconnection by naming emotions and trying new ways of responding.Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s perspective. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps clients clarify their own priorities and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors into actionable steps and offers skills for managing anxiety, mood, and difficult reactions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work with Tania. She discusses goals and preferences with each person and adjusts techniques over time. That collaborative process helps decide whether more emotional focus, skill-building, or practical coaching will be most useful.
The biography does not list explicit session formats, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can use video to observe interaction patterns and use phone or other allowed formats when less bandwidth or a quicker call is preferred.
