Tirrany Thurmond, Founder & CEO
We need to get close enough to wrap our arms around those who suffer and affirm their humanity.
IDALTU COUNSELING & CONSULTING LLC
Captivated by the lived experiences of others, their resilience, and will, Tirrany’s career as a therapist is led by a commitment to supporting people as they engage in the meaningful work to (re)define their lives. With empathy, openness, and curiosity, she offers her clients a safe exploratory space to be heard, seen, and affirmed.
Because our personal experiences don’t exist in a vacuum, it’s important for clients to know they aren’t alone in their quest to make meaning and find purpose in some of the most difficult moments of their lives. No one makes it alone, contrary to popular belief. Therefore, in therapy, we will collaborate to strengthen your self-trust and intuitive connection, learn to self-soothe, and expand your emotional vocabulary.

the role of a therapist!
To provide a space that allows the client to (re)search themselves. To listen to the stories of the client and co-create solutions or goals for moving forward. To affirm, validate, and create a trustworthy relationship.
To offer room for the client to share themselves. To encourage clients to be open and curious about their becoming process and support them with creating a new narrative and increase their acceptance for what is.
To uncover the truth and develop the coping skills to navigate life’s unexpected encounters. To wrangle internal saboteurs, denounce mental health stigmas, and silence the shame associated with seeking help.
To integrate your beliefs, practices, identity, and cultural background into your care. To advocate for you and your community on the local, state and national level to ensure your concerns are addressed.
