Tianna Pena, LCSW — Therapist in Nevada

Hi there, I'm Tianna!

I provide a therapeutic environment free of judgment where we collaboratively address your biggest concerns. I implement proven approaches based on both mind and body to help you heal and feel free of the ways trauma, depression, anxiety, and behavioral health concerns have been blocking you from reaching your potential.

My focus

I work with adults looking to work through past or current trauma of all sizes, and those navigating depression, anxiety, life phase stressors or changes, and grief and loss. Together, we develop a treatment plan that builds on your strengths and moves you closer to your desired goals.

My approach

I use brain and body-based interventions to help you identify and replace patterns that maintain barriers to healing. Through trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness, I teach skills to reach your goals and feel more in control. Treatment is individualized to prioritize your goals.

My communication style

You can depend on me to be approachable, calm, and clear. Some experiences and feelings are hard to express, and you can rely on me to be present, understanding, and caring. As you share what you need, I respond with empathy, validation, exploration, and skills to enrich your experience and further your healing and coping ability.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am a firm believer that people need people, and I could not imagine being anywhere but on the front lines of addressing lifelong traumas and reducing their impact. These experiences have shaped the importance of removing stigma, judgment, and shame, and highlighted the need to meet clients where they are.

My goals for you

Therapy is a journey where we build a partnership to work towards goals that are important to you. It's common for new goals to surface as you learn more about yourself and how to navigate tricky emotions and behaviors, which is why we can always adjust your plan. I am here to teach and guide you in ways to improve how you feel and function.

Our first session

During our first session, we will get to know one another to build a partnership toward your goals. We will explore why you're seeking therapy and your expectations. Beginning therapy can produce nervousness since it involves sharing and changes. This is normal, and I will help you navigate those feelings at your pace.
