About Tyania
Tyania McConnell brings a decade of clinical experience to her work as a licensed social worker, drawing on her LCSW, CSW, and LMSW credentials across Georgia and Michigan.
Background and approach
She approaches therapy with respect for each person's strengths and life story, guiding clients through change with an emphasis on practical coping skills and personal meaning. Her background equips her to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, career challenges, compassion fatigue, and trauma-related concerns.
Her style blends active, evidence-informed methods with an empathic, client-centered stance. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns, and incorporates mindfulness and dialectical strategies to build emotion regulation and resilience.
Clinical experience also informs her work on adoption and foster care issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, communication and commitment difficulties, and other complex life transitions. McConnell frames therapy as a collaborative process, supporting people as they set goals, develop skills, and pursue more satisfying day-to-day functioning.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to distress and then developing practical skills to shift them; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and respect for the client's perspective, creating a collaborative space where personal goals and strengths guide the work. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings strategies for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness that can be helpful for intense emotions and relationship difficulties.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process; she works together with clients to match methods to individual needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration helps shape which tools and techniques are emphasized as therapy progresses, with room to adapt based on what is most helpful.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or manage care from different locations. These formats support ongoing skill-building, check-ins between sessions, and consistent access to a licensed professional while accommodating different communication styles and day-to-day demands.
