Hello, and welcome! My name is Tierra Allen and I’m a licensed therapist with over nine years of experience in the field of Social Work, having transitioned into therapy in 2020. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with children, teens, and adults, helping them navigate life’s challenges and develop healthier ways to cope. I specialize in working with men, women and teen girls, helping them regulate emotions, build resilience, and respond to stress in ways that promote growth and emotional well-being. My practice currently serves teens and adults. If you or your teen is struggling with overwhelming feelings or challenges in life, I’m here to support you in creating lasting change and finding peace amidst the chaos with a healthy RESET.

My goal is to provide a safe nonjudgmental space to help you work through what brings you here. I recognize that each person has a unique path to healing that is not for me to define but instead to use my clinical knowledge as a guide. Together we can find the tools that empower you to be your own best healer.

You don’t have to keep repeating the same painful patterns. As a licensed trauma and addiction therapist, I help individuals uncover the emotional wounds and subconscious beliefs that drive anxiety, depression, and self-defeating behaviors. Healing begins when we understand—not judge—why we do what we do.

I specialize in trauma recovery, addiction treatment, and emotional regulation, helping clients build healthier relationships with themselves and others. Whether you’re navigating PTSD, anxiety, codependency, or recovery from substance use, my goal is to help you move from survival mode into authentic healing and growth.
