About Tanja
Tanja Hoenscheidt is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 14 years of clinical experience in Texas. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and related concerns. Tanja aims to create an affirming, kind space where people can talk about what feels hard and figure out practical next steps.
Her style is person-centered and straightforward. Sessions usually begin by listening closely to what matters most to the person sitting across from her.
Background and approach
From there she helps identify patterns that cause trouble and introduces simple tools to try between meetings. Tanja draws on several evidence-informed approaches, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and mindfulness practices. She mixes these methods to match someone’s goals rather than using a single fixed formula.
The focus is on skills people can use day to day to reduce overwhelm and improve focus and mood. She works with people navigating relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, gender identity concerns, and caregiving stress. Other areas she supports include bipolar mood issues, panic, self-harm thoughts, impulsivity, and smoking or vaping cessation.
Tanja offers sessions in English and provides therapy by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Fees vary by location and a subscription model is used that can be canceled at any time. To begin, select the Start Therapy button, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to available times.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move someone toward the life they want, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related struggles.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors influence each other and teaches clear strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for panic, mood disorders, and managing impulsivity.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus. These practices can help with stress, emotional regulation, and staying present during distracting moments.
Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan based on what feels most useful for the person’s life and needs.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow a full conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a person prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging support shorter check-ins, written practice, and fast skill coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules while still using ACT, CBT, and mindfulness tools in real life.
