Tahnee Swanton, MA, LPCC. Integrative Holistic Psychotherapist offering Tele-therapy in Oregon and Colorado.

Hi, I’m TAHNEE.

It is my honor to walk with other women on this human journey of healing and growth. You aren’t meant to do this alone.

I believe in your innate wholeness that’s always guiding you back to alignment with your True Self.

“Symptoms” and maladaptive behaviors are just brilliantly ADAPTIVE coping mechanisms driven by a nervous system wired to keep you safe. You aren’t broken.

I support you in connecting with your Self and empowered to navigate difficult emotions with a kind of “users manual” for this human experience.

  • Mindfulness-based Transpersonal Therapy

  • Somatic Embodiment

  • Neuroscience-based tools

  • Internal Family System Parts Work

My Approach

I believe that therapy is most effective when it is co-created by client and therapist where you are an active participant in our work.

I take a non-pathologizing approach, meaning that you don’t need a diagnosis to better your life. I see your symptoms as the result of highly adaptive strategies for the instinctual needs of safety and belonging in childhood that can now be consciously healed and rewired.

I specialize in working with adult women in all stages of life and in the transitions between chapters.

I am fascinated by spiritual and existential questions of how we find meaning and purpose, and how this translates into a fulfilling life lived in alignment with your True Self.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • “Transpersonal” refers our transcending of the personal and include one’s whole experience beyond the mind and ego identity. Transpersonal therapy takes a more holistic approach, addressing mental, physical, social, emotional, creative, and intellectual needs, with an emphasis on the role of a healthy spirit in healing. To facilitate healing and growth, transpersonal therapy places great emphasis on honesty, open-mindedness, and self-awareness on the part of the therapist as well as the client. Transpersonal psychology enhances the integration of mind-body relations, spirituality, consciousness, and human transformation.

  • “Mindfulness” refers to the act of bringing our conscious awareness to focus on the present moment without judgment. This can be easier said than done in times of stress or conflict. I incorporate neuroscience insights and body-centered tools for managing our emotions as they move through our nervous system. The countless benefits are integrated on a body, mind and spirit levels.

  • Somatic therapy is a body-centered holistic approach to psychotherapy focusing on the mind-body connection, helping clients release trapped trauma, tension, and stress stored in the body. Unlike traditional talk therapy, it uses physical awareness, breathwork, and movement to heal emotional issues and regulate the nervous system.

  • “Internal Family Systems” (IFS) is a powerfully transformative model for working with our naturally occurring inner parts and inner conflicts. Our inner parts all have valuable qualities even though they may have become burdened by beliefs and patterns formed to protect us from painful circumstances in childhood. Our core Self knows how to heal, allowing us to become integrated and whole. The goal in IFS is for this core Self to consciously lead our lives with conscious responsiveness instead of the unintegrated scared/hurt/angry parts that can often react unconsciously with things like defensiveness and blaming. In IFS all parts are welcome and can return to their valuable essence when they have been healed and trust the core Self to lead.
