Dr. Tanya Harrell

Dr. Tanya Harrell supports people as they move through life’s transitions, acknowledging that moments of happiness and struggle often come together. She draws on seven years of professional counseling experience to offer guidance when external insights and support are needed.

Her clinical work spans individuals from diverse backgrounds and includes counseling adults and children, people affected by domestic violence and rape, survivors of other forms of trauma, and families experiencing homelessness. These experiences have shaped an accepting and informed understanding of the human experience.

Dr. Harrell’s therapeutic approach blends existential and humanistic perspectives that encourage clients to explore purpose and meaning, alongside techniques grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy. She emphasizes a compassionate, empathetic relationship with each person she works with, aiming to understand concerns from the client’s point of view and to tailor support to their specific needs.

Her areas of focus include stress and anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, self-esteem, addictions, LGBT matters, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, eating and sleeping disorders, anger management, career difficulties, bipolar disorder, depression, ADHD, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. She practices in Louisiana and holds a Louisiana professional counseling license (LPC number 5628).
