Getting to know Tanny Purugganan

Hi there, I'm Tanny! As a Licensed Therapist and in the field for the past 30 years, I believe each person's mental health is their own, and it does not define you! Our own symptoms can be managed with the right therapist and the right tools and support! I will provide a safe environment for you to share openly so I can give tools and support to become the best you! My focus My dream client is you! If you are reaching out, then you deserve the best treatment, and that makes you a dream! My approach I want to give you hope as you learn more about yourself to manage your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to make your life fulfilling and meaningful again. My communication style I want my clients to feel safe and know they are welcome to challenge and react without judgment from me. Know that there is no wrong way, only what works. I work with the truth, and so it can be challenging at times. I try to be funny; well, I like to say I am, and I am an open book as long as it assists in your treatment. My journey to mental healthcare My journey to becoming a therapist started in junior high school as a "Peer Counselor" helping friends at school maneuver through those tough teen years. Working with a wide variety of people, from teens and substance use to federal inmates, showed me the joy of therapy. I strive to assist others to learn who their real selves are. My goals for you I work with adults and couples, providing tools to meet appropriate and achievable goals anywhere from communication to increasing mood or setting boundaries, and identifying and managing depression and anxiety. I want to meet you where you are and help you strive to achieve! Our first session In our first session, I will provide information about myself, then gather more information about your story and expectations of me. We will discuss a diagnosis and how it was determined, and hopefully then you decide to make another appointment with me! :)
