Trauma Focused Therapists in Harrisburg, PA

Hello! My name is Tiandra Humes and I am here to help you! Starting the journey of therapy can be difficult at times due to the unknowns and it feeling awkward to talk to a complete stranger about your life, but I can help make the process easier! I am a Licensed Practicing Counselor as well as a PA certified School Counselor. I am here to provide support, educate, advocate, and show you empathy throughout your therapy journey. Life can be hard and get us down or sometimes life throws us a curve ball the we weren’t expecting, but that’s okay! Reaching out for help is the best way to move through life’s obstacles. Lets talk about it!

One of the reasons that I choose to primarily work with children is my admiration for their incredible resilience despite some very difficult circumstances. I’m inspired by the resilience of children and their ability to “adjust their sails” when the tough winds of life blow. Despite their strength and determination, children often need a helping hand, a friendly face and a listening ear in order to develop resiliency. I view my work with children and their parents/guardians as “teamwork” as we seek together to identify what is needed to help children express themselves and improve their resiliency skills.

Hi, I’m Gabby! I'm a licensed and national board-certified counselor that has 12 years of experience in the human services field. I’ve previously provided individual, family/marital and group counseling in schools, communities, community agencies, residential homes/treatment centers, a juvenile shelter/detention center and an outpatient substance abuse treatment facility. My work with a variety of populations across settings has helped me to build skills working with many populations, but I specialize in treating anxiety, depression and other life issues in adults. I currently own and operate Total Wellness, a private practice.

If you’re navigating parenting, family relationships, and life’s challenges, I look forward to meeting with you! Throughout my training and experience, I have provided individual, group, and family counseling in community, child welfare, and substance use treatment settings. I work from a client-centered approach and consider myself a guest on your journey to hope, wellness, and strength.

We all want to be seen, heard, and have our feelings, thoughts, and life experiences validated. Treatment should be based on each individual needs and goals with a therapist-client relationship that is empathetic, genuine, respectful, and culturally sensitive. My goal is to implement a person-centered, strength-based, and cognitive-behavioral therapeutic approach that is tailored and empathic to your needs.

After asking your teenager countless times to clean their room, you walk in to see them playing video games with their dirty socks all over the floor! Now you’re seeing red. You’re either giving in to their bad behavior, snapping in frustration, and then feeling guilty about it. You know your kid needs extra support. His teachers have been throwing around “ADHD” as a diagnosis, but no one has any helpful advice. You’re in over your head. The habits he learns now will affect the rest of his life, and you feel like you’re failing him as a parent. You want what’s best for your child­, but this feels like more than you can handle alone.

As a psychotherapist with over 20 yrs of private practice experience, I draw upon a blend of cognitive, somatic and integrative therapies to help women assess and address their mental wellness goals. I believe... at the core of our "issues", lies invaluable wisdom to help us on this sojourn of life.

The work I do is unique to each individual. Your life story is your own and finding a place to feel empowered, validated, challenged, and grown in healthy and supportive ways is waiting for you. By utilizing numerous modalities, approaches, techniques, and skills, I am able to offer you a place to reconnect with or discover your worth and value. I typically see individuals ages 16 and over as well as couples.

In my practice I meet clients where they are using a person-centered and culturally competent approach. I have experience with depression anxiety, OCD, Bipolar, ADHD/ADD, PTSD, Adjustment disorders, Postpartum Depression, Sexual Identity Issues, Eating Disorders, Hoarding, Anger Issues, Divorce, Family Discord and Grief. I also have a special interest in older adults and end of life counseling.

Now more than ever, we know how important it is to reach out for help if you need it. If you are going through a difficult time and feel overwhelmed or simply want to make improvements, why not take the first steps to sit down and talk to someone? Our capable, nonjudgmental clinicians offer therapy services for all stages of life. There’s no problem too big or too small.
