Getting to know Tammy Allan
Hi there, I'm Tammy!
Whatever path led you to choose therapy, I’m genuinely glad you’re here. Everyone needs help at some point. No matter the issues you are struggling with, I’m here to listen, understand, and partner with you to sort out what can be resolved or restored, heal what can be healed, and develop your internal strengths and external support to bring relief and promote meaningful and lasting change. I specialize in working with adults and teens with complex or co-occurring problems. If you have many problems simultaneously or are overwhelmed, I may be a good match for you.
My approach
If we decide to work together, our initial conversations will help me understand your current needs and challenges, background, values, support system, and goals for therapy. From there, we’ll explore the best therapeutic options for you. With nearly 30 years of experience, I draw from a broad range of therapy approaches tailored to your needs and preferences. Therapy may involve reflective learning experiences, emotional awareness and expression, and reshaping thought patterns. It can also address trauma, grief, communication, or other skills for personal growth or to improve relationships. Depending on your goals, I may incorporate mindfulness, narrative work, expressive arts, storytelling, education, or practical problem-solving. Your progress is my priority—I’ll adjust our pace and techniques as needed and collaborate with other providers when appropriate. I’m open, flexible, and committed to creating a supportive space where your feedback is always welcome.
