About Tanea
Tanea Couther is a licensed clinician in Maryland with 11 years of professional experience. She holds an MD and is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, and she focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges. Her approach is practical and respectful, and she aims to tailor conversations and plans to each person’s situation.
In sessions she listens first and adapts to what each person needs. She uses common-sense methods drawn from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Mindfulness skills and elements of dialectical behavior therapy are added when they fit the moment. Tanea often helps people who are dealing with grief, anger, compassion fatigue, or life transitions. She also addresses attachment concerns, communication problems, control issues, and feelings like emptiness or shame.
Her work can include practical strategies for panic attacks, mood symptoms, and trauma-related reactions. Conversations are geared toward clear goals and small steps. She customizes pace and focus so people can try tools between sessions and report what worked or didn’t.
This makes sessions feel more like problem-solving and less like guessing. Therapy is offered in English and provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. People begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session based on therapist availability.
Tanea aims to be a steady, compassionate presence while people work toward greater balance and meaning.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and meeting people where they are. It emphasizes empathy, respect, and shaping sessions to each person’s needs, which helps when someone wants steady support for life stressors or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect feelings. It teaches specific strategies to spot unhelpful thinking, test new beliefs, and change behaviors that keep symptoms like anxiety or depression going. CBT is useful for panic, mood issues, and everyday stress management.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal communication. These tools can help people handle anger, impulsivity, and overwhelming emotions more effectively.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick techniques that match their goals, preferences, and life demands. That may mean combining client-centered listening with CBT exercises or adding DBT and mindfulness practices as needed.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or text are handy for quick check-ins or when scheduling short sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and try approaches consistently over time.
