Alana Tassie

 Alana has over 12 years experience working with young people and families facing some of the most challenging and despairing life circumstances: terminal illness, grief, trauma, separation, violence and abuse, mental illness, substance use and incarceration.

Alana was driven to establish Crossroads from her inspiration of family relationships to persevere through adversity and her enthusiasm of adolescent mental health and development.

With her genuine warmth and attentiveness, Alana creates a bridge to connect with people of all ages. Alana encourages humour, creativity and self-expression.

Alana facilitates personal reflection and family reconnection by enabling clients to identify their strengths and find meaning in their experience at a pace that feels comfortable for each person.

As part of her clinical development, Alana has undertaken her own therapeutic process and is therefore familiar with the vulnerability that clients might experience in counselling. It is her appreciation of the client experience, together with and Alana’s empathy and humility, which enable her to walk alongside clients and families as they journey through challenging life transitions.
