About Tania
Tania Patricca is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 27 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, family conflict, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and depression. She also assists with grief, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
She frames clients as the experts on their own stories and listens actively to help move internal conflicts into the open. That straightforward listening is paired with practical skills training. Clients learn strategies to reduce strong emotions and improve everyday communication.
Tania uses methods that emphasize clear thinking and behavior change alongside emotional regulation. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try different responses. She also uses client-centered work and mindfulness practices to slow down reactions and notice what matters most.
Her work includes elements from Dialectical Behavior Therapy for managing intense feelings and the Gottman Method for relationship communication. Sessions often focus on learning small, repeatable skills that people can use between meetings to feel more stable and connected.
People who prefer a pragmatic, structured approach find this style useful. The emphasis is on plain language, step-by-step techniques, and practicing skills like breathing, grounding, clearer speaking, and cognitive reframing.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Online work can use structured methods to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns of thinking and testing small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety, panic, or depression. It can be helpful for stress, panic attacks, social anxiety, and coping with life changes.Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes active listening and the client's own goals. In sessions this looks like reflective listening and gentle questioning to help a person clarify priorities and values. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) brings concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improved communication, which is useful when feelings feel overwhelming.
Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which approaches fit the person’s goals and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying CBT exercises, practicing DBT skills, or using mindfulness techniques between meetings.
