For over two decades, Tania has been driven by a desire to help
those who feel discouraged and need help to find their footing.

It is hard to look forward to your day when you feel stuck or burdened.   With your energy reserves drained and coping strategies stretched thin, you may feel raw or wonder how to stay afloat.  It doesn’t help when there’s plenty of advice suggesting “think positive” or simply “let it go.”  Those words just add insult to injury.

At Side By Side Counseling, you have someone in your corner with the expertise to help.  Whether you need clarity and direction, or ways to heal the impacts of trauma, there is the support you need to make the progress you want. Together we will develop a plan so that every step is designed to bring relief, build resiliency, and renew your sense of hope.

approaches

approaches

Two primary approaches are used to help you tackle the struggles that keep you weighed down.  Experiential in nature, we utilize your body and mind to allow deeper healing and change.

GESTALT

This is an experiential therapy that focuses on what is happening in the moment to address  the blocks that limit growth and contentment.  It involves awareness and active experimentation to open up creativity, and identify new possibilities. 

EMDR

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a therapy developed by Francine Shapiro that helps people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences.  Rather than just addressing the emotions or thoughts, this treatment taps into the brain’s natural healing process, creating enduring relief.

Tania has changed my life since I first entered her office.  Because of her empathic nature, her unyielding use of humor, and the commitment to help me, I look at her as one of the most important people in my life in getting me where I am today.   JP

Tania has helped me explore the good and the darkness inside myself.  She has done this as a skilled therapist and human being, reaching out to another while not being afraid to take risks to make a difference.  Her mixture of professionalism and humanity is not only therapeutic but inspiring. JK

Nothing is so powerful and fruitful as a therapist who understands your trauma and struggles because she has gone before you through some of those difficult times herself. Tania is the most dedicated, thoughtful, vulnerable, and staunchest of client allies one could hope for. She is a true professional and talented companion on an often difficult and challenging journey. MG

Tania transformed me.  I came to her not having a clue who I was, who I wanted to be or how to get there.  She has given me the most important survival skills and tools that will have a ripple effect for all the generations of my family.  MM

It has always been difficult for me to let people in, but Tania makes it so easy.  She is wonderful at what she does because she is so compassionate, caring, loving and understanding as an individual.  I am so blessed and truly lucky to have her in my life.  KGIt has always been difficult for me to let people in, but Tania makes it so easy.  She is wonderful at what she does because she is so compassionate, caring, loving and understanding as an individual.  I am so blessed and truly lucky to have her in my life.  KG

I feel extremely safe and comfortable with Tania and someone I can be honest about anything.  She has helped me in so many ways, with advice and practices. My urges have gotten much better, and I am figuring out ways to calm down my anxiety thanks to our work together.  AC

Tania creates a climate between us where I can feel safe to share the things I do.  Separate and apart from the work we do, I truly and genuinely look forward to our appointments because I enjoy our conversation, our banter and her sense of humor. PC
