Meet tennille tucker, lcsw

I'm Tennille, and I bring a deep commitment to empowering individuals to cultivate their most authentic selves. My work thoughtfully explores the habits and beliefs that shape our overall well-being, offering guidance towards a healthier and more enriching life, beginning with the fundamental role of nutrition.

I am particularly passionate about the intricate link between nutrition and mental health, understanding how our dietary choices significantly influence our emotions, energy levels, and holistic wellness. My extensive experience has shown me the tangible impact of food on conditions like anxiety, depression, and other health challenges. My personal journey toward mindful eating has been a continuous process of learning and growth, and I remain dedicated to making conscious choices that nourish my mind, body, and spirit.

My appreciation for wholesome and intentional living is deeply intertwined with my family history. As a second-generation Californian, I treasure the wisdom passed down by my grandmother, who instilled in me a love for fresh, homegrown food after moving from Alabama. Despite urban living, she created a connection to nature by raising chickens, gathering fresh eggs, and involving us in picking local fruits and vegetables – formative experiences that have shaped my perspective on nutrition and well-being.

As a therapist, I utilize a holistic framework for healing, recognizing the vital connection between the mind, body, and spirit. My goal is to support clients in achieving equilibrium in all areas of their lives. With over 15 years of experience within the forensic population and more than 20 years dedicated to supporting individuals facing trauma, depression, and anxiety, I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), adapting my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual.

I am honored to be a supportive presence on your journey toward greater wellness and self-discovery.

Warmly,

Tennille
