About
Drawing from my African American identity and lived experiences, I offer a therapeutic space where your journey is not only understood but genuinely affirmed, allowing us to navigate your path to healing together from a culturally grounded perspective.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 39 years of experience providing mental health and addiction counseling to children, adolescents, and adults. I specialize in treating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, adjustment concerns, work- and relationship-related stress, and substance use and behavioral addictions, including gambling, pornography, and video gaming.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from Howard University. My approach to treatment is eclectic and evidence-based, drawing from person-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and motivational interviewing to support meaningful and lasting change.
I strive to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe, respected, and understood. I work collaboratively with clients to identify goals, build effective coping skills, and foster healing and recovery. I invite you to take the next step and begin your therapeutic journey with me.

As a woman of color who has struggled with ADHD her entire life, I understand how life changing getting the help we need to change our life can be, and I would love to help you on your journey back to yourself.
Hi, I’m Tanya Lorenzi, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience, licensed in both Georgia and South Carolina. I specialize in working with women navigating ADHD, trauma, and relationship challenges. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or like they’ve lost a sense of who they are. My work focuses on helping them reconnect with themselves, build emotional clarity, and create meaningful, lasting change so they can feel grounded, confident, and like themselves again.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I integrate evidence-based methods like EMDR alongside practical tools to help clients process painful experiences, regulate emotions, and move forward with greater clarity. Clients can expect a supportive space that balances depth, structure, and compassion.
I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can exhale — where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to grow. If you’re ready to reconnect with yourself and create meaningful change, I’d be honored to walk alongside you in that process.
You deserve dedicated time with a mental health professional — it can be life-changing.

Anxiety therapy helps people better understand and manage their anxiety. Anxiety therapists at Thriveworks in Savannah, GA can develop a treatment plan that will help you better manage your day-to-day anxiety or your anxiety disorder.
Anxiety therapy involves talking to a therapist about symptoms, potential causes, and more. Thriveworks Savannah therapists will then work with you to determine where your anxiety might stem from and teach you effective coping mechanisms.
One of the best ways to deal with anxiety is to learn about your own anxiety: your symptoms, what triggers it, and what coping mechanisms have been effective in the past. When you learn what your anxiety is tied to, it can help you be mindful of what’s really happening as well as prevent and mitigate symptoms by processing and working through the issue in therapy. Other strategies that have been shown to help manage anxiety are meditation, challenging anxious thoughts, exercising, and journaling.
Common symptoms of anxiety include:
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be incredibly effective in treating anxiety and anxiety disorders. Other effective techniques include exposure therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and EMDR therapy.
Anxiety therapy is conducted both in person and online, depending on the individual’s preferences and their therapist’s availability. We suggest choosing the option that best suits your needs.
On average, people can tend to attend 15 to 20 session of anxiety therapy (five or more months). However, this number is heavily dependent on the type of anxiety that’s being treated and its severity, with many choosing to attend anxiety therapy for a longer period of time to ensure its effectiveness long-term.
Yes, it is worth going to therapy for anxiety. If you are struggling with regular anxious thoughts and feelings that are affecting your day-to-day life or you suspect that you have an anxiety disorder, you should seek expert anxiety help.
It’s common to experience anxiety sometimes—to feel nervous or worried. Say, when your boss asks about your progress on a pressing task, or when your brand-new car breaks down on the interstate. When your partner calls saying you two need to talk, or when you’re waiting to hear back from a potential employer. Sometimes, though, these nerves and this worry are heightened—it can be better described as a debilitating fear instead. And you experience it often, not just occasionally. Additionally, you struggle with other harmful feelings like panic, impending doom, and fatigue. Worst of all, you can’t control it. This is when anxiety becomes a problem. This is an anxiety disorder, which doesn’t just pass, but often requires asking for a little help and receiving treatment.

Symptoms of anxiety vary depending on the anxiety disorder one is dealing with. There’s generalized anxiety disorder, which is characterized by excessive worry and fear in a variety of situations, and then there are anxiety disorders that have more specific triggers. For example, social anxiety disorder is characterized by anxiety that arises in social situations. That said, there are common symptoms of anxiety, including:
The symptoms one experiences can vary. Additionally, anxiety disorders vary in severity. However, regardless of your presentation and the severity of your condition, an anxiety counselor can help. They can help you manage your symptoms, better understand where your anxiety comes from, and how to best move forward from here.
We just discussed how anxiety can vary in presentation and severity. Because of this, anxiety counseling also varies—as it is based on your symptoms, the severity of your disorder, and your overall needs/goals in counseling. Once your counselor touches base with all of these considerations, they can design treatment to best help your situation. That said, here are more specific examples of how your anxiety counselor can help you:
Remember that while the above are characteristic of anxiety counseling, the exact path of treatment will depend on your symptoms and needs.
