Tianna Burroughs (she/her)

Tianna Burroughs is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who focuses on helping people manage anger and related struggles. She offers a warm, straightforward style that aims to make people feel heard and respected. Tianna seeks to create a calm space where clients can talk about hard experiences and figure out practical next steps.

She brings eight years of clinical experience across settings such as home-based care, schools, youth shelters, residential programs, and inpatient psychiatric hospitalization. That range means she has worked with many problems people commonly face, including depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, parenting challenges, and crisis situations. Her background growing up in northern Indiana shapes how she understands hardship and resilience.

Tianna uses client-centered and strength-based work to let each person guide the pace and focus of therapy. She often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helping clients notice how thoughts affect feelings and actions. She also draws on mindfulness and breathing exercises to help with emotional regulation.

Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental while remaining honest and direct when needed. She asks for feedback and adjusts methods if something is not working. The goal is practical change - building on skills and everyday strengths clients already have.

Outside of practice, Tianna has taken time raising twins and a teenage niece and has lived in Indiana, Texas, and Tennessee. She enjoys outdoor activities, yoga, and interior design when she is not working.

How certain approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking small committed steps toward them. Online ACT can help people reduce struggle with difficult emotions and reconnect with what matters day to day. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. CBT exercises and thought records adapt well to remote sessions and at-home practice. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on understanding how early relationships shape current patterns and can be useful for addressing trust, closeness, and relationship-related anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's goals, needs, and preferences. If one approach doesn't feel helpful, she will adjust what she does and invite feedback so sessions stay useful and relevant.

Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten travel time, and allow work around childcare or job hours. Some formats also let people choose a shorter check-in when they need quick support or pick a session style that matches their comfort with video or phone contact.
