Tyana Tavakol

I specialize in helping adults with complex PTSD work through symptoms of childhood trauma and anxiety holding them back from living a fulfilling, authentic life. I also have a deep understanding of and provide supporting working through the inherited trauma and identity challenges that come with being a BIPOC, child of immigrant family's trauma cycle breaker.

Drawing on advanced training in trauma-informed approaches and insight-oriented therapy, along with years of experience in community mental health, adolescent residential treatment, and private practice, I support clients in understanding how past experiences and current stressors impact their lives and relationships today. Together, we’ll uncover your true self beneath layers of anxiety, pain, and fear, empowering you to live authentically, aligned with your values, and discover what peace feels like.

Sessions will be a custom fit to you, how you like to work, and what you need. After our introductory session, sessions will be a mix of processing, self-insight growth, and skill building. Depending on what you come in with that day, we may just hold the space for whatever is taking up your mind and energy at the time, dig deeper into your past to see how we can link it to present patterns, work on building some skills to give you some control back on your anxiety and trauma, helping you regulate your emotions, or a mix of all the things!
