We intend to raise awareness about mental health issues. Why is it important (glad you asked)? Because it affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices. Mental health is important at every stage of life, from childhood and adolescence through adulthood. Let’s reduce the stigma related to mental illness. The more we talk about mental health conditions, the more normalized it becomes. Starting the conversation is the first step. Let’s talk!

I have experience working with a wide range of concerns including anxiety and stress, depression and other mood disorders, relationships and interpersonal issues, adjustment and acculturation, body image and eating concerns, identity development, and academic issues. I consider myself a generalist and am comfortable treating a variety of presenting issues; however, I am particularly interested in helping clients explore concerns related to perfectionism, sexual orientation, romantic relationships, and racial or ethnic identity development.

Sometimes we feel overwhelmed by life. We don’t feel good enough. We can struggle with judgmental self-talk. We want to get rid of our inner critic and feel whole.

I strive to provide an affirming environment that uplifts your voice and centers your cultural values and beliefs.

Therapy is an opportunity to help people diminish pain, cope with challenges, and gain support through adverse experiences. Additionally, it challenges personal growth through insight development, compassion and attentiveness. I have 16 years of experience and my areas of expertise are anxiety disorders, religious trauma, perinatal and postpartum health, couples therapy and chronic illness. I often work with individuals struggling to cope with the day to day and who want to align their beliefs and values with the people around them; whether that's the family, workplace or a faith institution.

Have you ever felt self-doubt? Uncertainty about how to make changes or difficulty coping even if you know what you want to do differently? It can be hard to imagine the ideal life we want for ourselves, let alone figure out how to make it happen. Gaining both support AND skills in therapy can reduce feelings of worry, sadness, and the "stuckness" we all feel at times. I look forward to working collaboratively with you as you move toward your ideal life!

My name is Tyania (ty-an-nuh) and I am a Black, queer, cisgender licensed therapist (LCMHCA) offering individual therapy in Durham, NC. My approach is rooted in the idea that profound healing occurs in the context of relationships. Our lives are dictated by the relationships that we do or don’t have, and a large part of how we discover ourselves is through reflection and feedback - being seen and understood by another. Being your authentic self can be challenging for many reasons, which is why I strive to make our time together a place of refuge where you can be your true self (or have the space to figure out who your true self is).

As a therapist, I foundationally work from the belief that all humans deserve to feel safe and at home in their bodies. In this messy world, we can often find ourselves not trusting our bodies and wanting to change them. Sometimes within that mess, people may find themselves coping in ways that do not address their deep, underlying needs. I believe in this therapeutic process, you can reconnect with those needs and serve them more intentionally, healing the deepest parts of yourself. My goal is not only to help you find that healing, but to also enjoy and accept the messiness along the way.
