Tanya Garner

Maybe you have never considered working with a therapist because finding the right one feels intimidating. Sharing your struggles and vulnerabilities with strangers can initially be strange or awkward, but I am passionate about supporting clients like you. I look forward to working with folks who are facing everyday issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, LGBTQ+ issues, relationship strain, parenting, vocational transitions, as well as children or adolescents who are having difficulties with school or disabilities. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor Associate, which means I will work closely with my supervisor, Sharyn Delgado, LPC-S. I have almost 20 years of experience in special education. First as a teacher, and finally, the last 13 years of my career as a behavior intervention specialist addressing the needs of students with the most difficult behaviors for a large school district. I have been raising my family, with my husband, in Amarillo for more than thirty years. My husband, two dogs, three kids, and I built a life in this community and love the hope it offers. Helping others has always been part of my journey. I use an integrative approach, client-centered and trauma-informed therapeutic interventions and develop a treatment plan to your specific needs. I want to help you achieve your goals to promote healing and personal transformation. I look forward to embarking on this journey with you to empower you to understand the underlying roots of your challenges, embrace your strengths, cultivate resilience, and achieve meaningful and lasting change in your or your children’s lives.
