Getting to know Albena Tzaneff

Hi there, I'm Albena! My name is Albena Tzaneff, and I have been a licensed professional counselor since 2011 and fully licensed since 2014. I earned my Master’s in Counseling from Liberty University. As a foreign-born immigrant from Bulgaria, I work especially well with people from collectivistic cultures like my own. If you desire transformation, I offer supportive skills balanced with authentic, collaborative techniques aimed at identifying patterns that keep you from showing up as your best self. My approach I create a safe, affirming space where clients explore experiences and gain clarity on strengths and potential. Together, we address workplace dynamics, develop strategies for challenging relationships, and tackle discrimination and implicit bias’s impact on mental health. I combine evidence-based modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness with a culturally sensitive approach, ensuring clients' identities are honored and celebrated. I’m committed to supporting clients toward personal and professional fulfillment, resilience, and advocacy for equity. My communication style My style is straightforward and empathetic—I keep it real while helping you find practical solutions quickly. I aim to create a space where you feel truly understood, and we work together to make meaningful progress that fits who you are. My goals for you My goal-setting approach is collaborative and clear. Together, we break down goals into actionable steps that feel doable and authentic. I help create goals that resonate—beyond “check-the-box” tasks—meaningful to where you are now. We stay flexible and adjust as needed, focusing on progress over perfection so you feel empowered and supported at every stage.
