"My passion is helping others find meaning and connection during times of change, loss and overwhelm in their lives".

"To support the process of transforming these stuck and difficult places and experiences into opportunities for post traumatic growth. I am particularly curious about living the question of how those in helping and caring sectors can find ways of working whole heartedly. It was during a time of overwhelm and burnout in my own working life that I wrote “My Promise” which was an answering to why do I do what I do? And how do I sustain this for myself and others. I believe it is essential that we keep asking ourselves these questions".

Tahnee is the Founding Director at Reach Life, a practice she started 10 years ago built around her genuine care, connection and love of people, combined with a desire to find more creative and connected ways of delivering care.

She is clinically best known for her work in the area of trauma, emotional dysregulation and suicide prevention as well as working with Indigenous communities. Tahnee has trained in DBT, EMDR, Schema and transpersonal psychotherapeutic frameworks.

Tahnee commits to using personal presence, attentive listening, and warmth to create a safe and secure therapeutic space to cultivate growth and capacity building for her clients. Tahnee is passionate about supporting and developing our helpers and health professionals and provides clinical mentoring and supervision.

“My hope for my clients is that they experience validation, empowerment and reconnection with the things that make their life meaningful and enjoyable. That they are able to realise their unique potentials through being supported to manage the roadblocks that prevent them from experiencing satisfaction in their school/work/business and relationships and daily life.”

Tahnee is not currently accepting new client or supervisee referrals. She does offer small group supervision and well-being retreats.
