“I feel stuck in my thoughts, like I can’t turn off my mind.” “The anxiety is exhausting—I can’t remember the last time I truly felt at ease.” “I don’t know how to move forward.” Healing doesn’t mean erasing your past—it means learning how to navigate it in a way that no longer holds you back. Anxiety, depression, and trauma can make you feel disconnected from yourself and the world around you. You might find yourself caught in cycles of overthinking, self-doubt, or emotional overwhelm. But you don’t have to go through it alone. Together, we will create a space where you feel safe, seen, and empowered to move toward healing. I specialize in helping individuals manage anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and emotional dysregulation. Using CBT and mindfulness, I support you in building coping skills, managing distress, and reconnecting with yourself. My approach is warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental—you’re the expert in your life, and I’m here to support you. If you're ready to take the next step toward healing, I invite you to reach out. Message me today to set up your free consultation. Let’s begin this journey together.

“I feel hopeless, anxious, and I worry all the time.” “I am a people pleaser and I am exhausted.” “I don’t know how to navigate big feelings/emotions; they’re too much.” Does this sound familiar? I am here to help as you deserve to live a life that makes you look forward to waking up each morning! Feeling hopeless, anxious, and full of worry can be debilitating, overwhelming, and lonely. Oftentimes, our belief in our own resiliency gets buried during these times. I have had the privilege of walking with people of all ages on their life's journey, uncovering their resiliency. There has always been an innate desire to help others achieve their potential and see their own greatness; realize their past doesn’t define them, and their future is theirs to create. If you are ready to uncover your greatness and create goals for a future you create, you can call me or send me a message. I look forward to meeting you!
“I wake up feeling a sense of dread daily”… “Why do I keep avoiding opportunities for change and growth?”… “I often feel like I have no control over my emotions”… “Alcohol has taken control of my life” … If any of these statements feel familiar, I am here to help. Mental health complexities such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and addiction don’t have to control your life. I have witnessed the impact that emotional understanding and healing can have on the quality of life of countless individuals. A new mindset and greater sense of self is possible to enhance your lived experiences. You are deserving of a bright future filled with hope and aspirations rooted in a general sense of wellbeing. Please give me a call or send me a message so we can begin the process of hope and healing together.

Everyone needs a safe space to share without fear of judgment—I hope to be that for you. My job is to support you unconditionally in your unique quest to be happier, healthier, and more fulfilled. I am passionate about counseling those struggling with anxiety, depression, neurodivergent challenges, family/relationship complications, and LGBTQIA+ issues. I believe YOU are the expert of YOU. Together, we can unravel the tangled interconnection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and work towards establishing a healthier inner voice that will empower you toward your goals. Using evidence-based methods, we will develop a treatment plan together that is unique and right for you. If you feel we may be a good fit, don’t hesitate to reach out for a consultation.
“I feel stuck and alone” “I want to feel better but I don’t know how to get there” “I am tired of the way I have been living and I need something to change” “I don’t know why I feel this way” You are not alone. I am here with you and want to support you through this. Therapy is not always the first idea that pops into our heads when it comes to dealing with life’s stressors; and asking for support in some of our most hardest times can be challenging. Or maybe you have tried and had a not-so-helpful experience. Each one of us has lived different life experiences and faced hardships that can leave us feeling alone, lost, overwhelmed, and possibly even helpless. While I don't aim to “fix” or “solve” these hardships, I do aim to validate each experience and emotions that comes from these challenges and support you in gaining control of your life again through increasing your self awareness and self-acceptance to help you reach whatever “better” look and feels likes for you.
It’s okay if you’re not sure where to begin. Life can feel overwhelming, and sometimes it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what’s causing the discomfort, whether it’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or a major life transition. What matters is that you’re ready to start, and I’m here to help you figure out the next steps, no matter how small. Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back and find a way forward that feels more aligned with who you truly are. I work with individuals, couples, and families who are ready to get curious about themselves and create change that sticks. My goal is to help you feel safe enough to be real, and supported enough to take meaningful steps forward. I’ll bring honesty, and the occasional nerdy metaphor. You bring your story, your goals, and whatever you’re ready to unpack. No matter what you're going through, there’s always hope for growth, change, and healing. If you’re ready to begin, I’d love to hear from you. Reach out by phone or message, and together, we can start working on the steps that will bring you closer to the life you envision.
Seeking support can feel vulnerable, and I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. From the moment we begin working together, my goal is to create a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where you can safely explore life's challenges, build self-awareness, and move toward meaningful change at your own pace. With nearly a decade of experience in the mental health field, I work with adults of all ages navigating anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, self-esteem challenges, and the impacts of addiction. There is a particular place in my heart for emerging adults as they find their footing through identity development, relationships, career pressures, and the significant changes that come with early adulthood. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and I approach every person I work with as exactly that: an individual. Drawing from a range of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectal Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness, and narrative therapy, I meet you where you are and build a holistic, individualized therapeutic experience that feels supportive, collaborative, and tailored to your unique needs, strengths, and goals. Recognizing that each person's experiences, challenges, and healing process are different shapes everything about how I show up for you. My aim, as a person-centered and trauma-informed therapist, is for you to leave each session feeling empowered, supported, and more connected to yourself as you navigate life's complexities. Graduating with my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Adams State University in 2023 marked the beginning of a career rooted in purpose. Upon earning my LPC credential, I began providing outpatient therapy in the Boulder area, offering individual counseling to adults seeking support in managing their mental health and building a fulfilling life. At the heart of this work is a deep belief in the strength and resilience of the human spirit. Whatever you are navigating, I am here to walk alongside you with care and understanding.
Hi! I’m Dr. Tahaney. I specialize in helping adolescents and young adults navigate stressful life transitions as well as with specific emotional and behavioral difficulties including alcohol or drug use, eating disorders, anxiety, depression, grief, and ADHD. My goal is to create a non-judgmental, supportive, accepting, validating, and compassion-filled environment for you to begin to heal from and learn to cope with the difficulties life has thrown your way. I offer diagnostic evaluation and individual therapy for adolescents and adults. All services are offered in-person in Boulder, CO or via video conference. I'm happy to set up a brief initial consult call to see if I may be a good fit for you. Feel free to request a consult through my website or by calling or emailing me. As of September 2025, I am a PSYPACT authorized provider.
As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I specialize in anxiety, trauma, identity exploration, emotional overwhelm, and relationship challenges. With several years of experience, I work with adults navigating some of life's most complex terrain, helping you find your footing when anxiety feels unmanageable, when past experiences weigh heavily on the present, or when relationships and sense of self feel uncertain. Empathy and authentic connection are at the heart of how I work. If you're looking for a thoughtful, attuned partner in your care, I look forward to helping you feel more connected, balanced, and at ease. My approach is gentle, grounding, and collaborative. Sessions are designed to be a safe, restorative space where you can slow down, tune into your nervous system, and begin creating meaningful, lasting change. Using relaxation techniques and nervous system-focused strategies, I help you reconnect with yourself and build a sense of balance that carries beyond our time together. Every person's needs and goals are different, and I tailor my approach accordingly. Whatever you're working through, you can expect a space that is supportive, unhurried, and shaped around you. A natural empathy for others and a deep desire to support people through life's challenges first drew me to this work. That pull became a purpose, and over time it shaped my commitment to providing warm, supportive, and empowering care. Authenticity and compassion guide every session. Whether you're working to restore a sense of well-being, process difficult experiences, or simply find more meaning in your daily life, I'm here to walk that path with you. Outside of sessions, you'll likely find me on a yoga mat, out on a trail, or setting up camp somewhere with my dog by my side. These practices of mindfulness, movement, and time in nature are part of how I stay grounded, and they deepen my appreciation for the quiet power of simply slowing down.

You don’t have to do this alone. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in depression, or carrying the invisible weight of trauma—there is a way through. I help individuals untangle painful experiences and reconnect with a sense of safety, strength, and clarity. Therapy isn’t about ‘fixing’ you. It’s about helping you rediscover the parts of yourself that hardship tried to silence. It is time to be heard. I work with individuals who are ready to create a change. My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and collaborative. I believe healing happens when you feel safe to show up exactly as you are—no masks, no pressure to “have it all figured out.” Whether you're new to therapy or returning, we’ll move at your pace.
