Tansey Kurth

My communication style

My style is compassion and gentle honesty. I'm steady enough to sit in silence and won't rush you past what you need to feel. I'm also direct enough to carefully name an old script about worth, perfection, or obligation when it's keeping you small. I'll ask the questions you may have learned not to ask, always at your pace, never mine.

My journey to mental healthcare

On a Colorado farm, I learned to hide my sensitivity; in a high-control church, I learned worth had to be earned. I know what it's like to seem fine while quietly falling apart. Years in community mental health, family therapy, and schools showed me how deeply we're shaped by what we're taught. Now I help others ask the questions I once couldn't.

My goals for you

You drive; I help navigate. We start with what you want more of in your life, then shape it together into clear, measurable goals so we can both see progress. When part of you wants change and part feels afraid, we explore both without judgment. Goals often shift as you grow, so we revisit them regularly and celebrate small wins.

Our first session

Our first session is about getting to know each other. We'll talk about what brings you here, what you hope will change, and whatever history you're ready to share; there's no pressure to tell it all at once. I'll answer your questions and explain how I work, and you'll leave with a clear sense of next steps and whether we're a good fit.
