About Tanya
Tanya Mitra is a Houston-based certified life and relationship coach whose work sits at the intersection of cultural identity, self-worth, and relationships. A former VP in luxury fashion who once had the career, the house, and the life that looked perfect from the outside, she knows exactly what it's like to quietly fall apart inside a life that looks great on paper — because she lived it.
Raised as the only child of Indian immigrant parents in Toronto, Tanya spent her formative years navigating between two worlds: the cultural expectations of home and her own unfolding identity. When she lost her six-figure job and her marriage in the span of six weeks in 2018, years of personal development work helped her see the breakdown as an opening. She became a coach to help others find the same kind of clarity without having to hit rock bottom first.
Her approach centers on a core belief: most relationship and life struggles aren't random — they're rooted in cultural conditioning, family patterns, and early wounds that have never been examined. Through her signature 7C framework, she helps clients understand the *why* behind their stuck points before building anything new. She works with individuals through her RESET program and couples through RENAISSANCE, and brings particular attunement to multicultural and BIPOC clients navigating expectations from multiple directions.

What Clients Say
★★★★★
"Your ability to understand us, and get to our actual issue in 5 mins, through a screen & across an ocean is insane. I'll admit I was super skeptical, as T told you, but a year & a half later - I can say I was completely wrong."

★★★★★
"It's crazy to think how far we've come from where we were. I didn't think we were going to make it. The biggest change for us was setting our Relationship Vision and doing our Relationship SWOT. I think we just realized that we actually COULD change, we just needed to do the work. Thank you so much, Tanya."

"Working with Tanya felt deeply empowering. Her personalized coaching was so direct but empathetic at the same time. She helped me rediscover my inner strength and find the courage to stand up for myself while navigating a very difficult life transition. Since working with Tanya I left a toxic relationship, found new love, moved to a different country and changed careers - all of which felt impossible a few years ago."

★★★★★
"As a man, I only worked with male therapists before, so a female coach was new. But I met Tanya in person, and there was something like just she got it - she gets me. There's a comfort that I feel with her that helps me find feelings & thoughts that I would never go to on my own."

"I thought life was good before but I feel 10x better now and so much more in control of who I am and what I need to do. Working with Tanya was worth every penny! I trusted her completely and got the best guidance a Coach could provide. Sometimes it wasn't easy to hear but its exactly what I needed. I'm so grateful for her insight and encourage anyone looking for a Coach to work with her. Trust me, this is coming from a hard headed New Yorker! Thank you Tanya! I appreciate you more than you will ever know!"

★★★★★
"I was lost, not sure where the light was in my story. I was struggling in my marriage, I was hurt, depressed & angry. I tried traditional therapy and it wasn't for me - I knew I had to try something different. Coaching with Tanya is like coaching with someone I've known my entire life and can still have objective views on everything. It's helped me in ways I didn't expect. I learned myself again. Who I am, who I'm becoming, more aware of my emotions (learning my emotional regulation), I'm happier and can smile and can breathe. I'm taking steps forward in my life and moving on and looking forward to being completely free."
