About

Tatiana Garcia, LPC

Hey there! I’m Tatiana Garcia, and I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor in New Jersey specializing in anxiety treatment. I’m passionate about helping high-achieving professionals decrease anxiety and create calm and balance in their lives.

You don’t have to sacrifice yourself to succeed.

I know from personal and professional experience how important it is to get to the root of your struggles when you struggle with anxiety, and how important self-care and balance are to living a fulfilling life and having a successful career.

I’m passionate about helping you feel calmer so you can heal from within.

I strive to guide you towards a life of calm and balance.

I believe that each and every person has the capacity for growth, improvement, and fulfillment in their lives. My hope is to help you through these challenging times so that you can feel calmer and achieve balance in your life.

I know it’s possible to have relief from your current struggles, and I want to help you understand exactly how it can be done. I do this by providing compassionate, non-judgmental support, along with education on techniques and skills grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Self-Compassion, and Positive Psychology.

My therapeutic approach consists of:

Education to help you understand yourself and your mental health more comprehensively, so you can feel empowered to care for your own mental health well into the future.
Actionable guidance and support to help you integrate what we discuss during our sessions into your daily life.
Providing feedback (including making observations about patterns I notice in you that you may not recognize in yourself) and also being open to receiving feedback so I can improve as a therapist.
Being an open-minded, non-judgmental, and accepting support for you (because I know talking about yourself and your emotions can feel uncomfortable, and I won’t push you to share anything you’re not comfortable sharing).

Qualifications

My Professional Background and Qualifications

I hold a Master of Arts degree in Forensic Mental Health Counseling from John Jay College of Criminal Justice, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in both Psychology and Criminal Justice from Rutgers University.

I am also a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional.

My ten+ years of experience working in the field of mental health includes my previous work in mental health agencies assisting adults, children, and families from diverse backgrounds. I originally began working in the criminal justice field assisting victims of trauma, and I have a background in trauma-informed approaches, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Cognitive Processing Therapy. Additionally, I have training in Structural Family Therapy and will utilize both of these modalities, when appropriate, in my individual sessions.

My current expertise is helping high-achieving professionals and entrepreneurs find relief from anxiety, including social anxiety, burnout, and high-functioning anxiety.

My Interests

When I’m not meeting with clients, I love reading thrillers, personal development, and business books. I enjoy going for hikes in the mountains, spending time with friends and family and doing anything creative!
