About Tyrenia
Dr. Tyrenia Cross helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, angry, or stuck find clearer ways forward. She works with adults who are wrestling with stress, anxiety, anger, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and problems with self-esteem.
Her straightforward style focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. With 20 years of experience, Dr. Cross brings steady guidance to difficult life changes.
She holds an MA and is a licensed mental health counselor - LMHC - in Florida.
Background and approach
Her work often supports people facing chronic health challenges, workplace strain, caring responsibilities, and the fallout of trauma or abuse. Her sessions center on developing skills that reduce reactivity and improve daily functioning. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients recognize unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors.
That approach is paired with coaching on communication and coping strategies that people can practice at home. Dr. Cross pays attention to the whole picture - past wounds, current stressors, and routines that keep problems going.
She helps people manage addictions, process grief, address family of origin issues, and work through anger in ways that feel safe and manageable. She also offers support around career transitions, caregiver stress, and forgiveness work. People who choose her often want clear tools, steady feedback, and a plan they can follow.
In sessions she focuses on concrete goals, step-by-step strategies, and building confidence so clients can handle everyday challenges with less overwhelm.

How CBT and online sessions work together
Dr. Cross uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot the thoughts and habits that feed anger, anxiety, and low mood. CBT involves identifying specific thoughts, testing whether they are accurate, and trying small behavior changes to see what helps. It is useful for stress, worry, anger management, and solving day-to-day problems.She combines CBT strategies with coaching on communication and coping so clients get both skill practice and real-time feedback. Choosing an approach is a team effort; the therapist and client review goals and try methods that match the client’s needs and preferences. Adjustments are made as progress is tracked so the plan fits the person over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care easier to fit into life. Video calls let people work face-to-face from different locations, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be useful for shorter check-ins. Live chat and messaging are helpful for quick updates, tracking progress, and getting feedback between longer sessions. These options support flexibility, consistent contact, and continued skill practice even with a busy schedule.
