About
Tetana
Greetings! My name is Tetana (pronounced Tah-Taw-nah). I am passionate about supporting clients as they navigate mental health challenges and support clients to develop a holistic understanding of wellness. I have experience working with clients facing anxiety, depression, adjustment difficulties, ADHD, OCD, life transitions, grief, and loss.
My approach to care is person-centered, eclectic, and collaborative. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where each client’s unique needs, experiences, and goals are respected and honored. I draw from a range of treatment approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), somatic and mind-body therapies, and mindfulness.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time in nature, listening to music, and traveling.
I identify as BIPOC, Indigenous, Two-Spirit, and a womxn.
