Tanner loves what he does and it shows. He’s got a big heart for people, and he takes his work so seriously that he brings it home with him.
Outside of Inspire, Tanner’s internationally known for mental health education to young people on TikTok with nearly 2 million followers. He also recently published a self-help book with the world’s largest publisher. The most important thing about Tanner though, is how much he cares for his clients.
Teens, College Kids, and Young Adults
Being young is difficult! Tanner knows this both by being young himself, and through working extensively with young people as a therapist. Tanner spent the last few years providing counseling to youth in the community with a wide variety of different difficulties.
Tanner’s down-to-earth, approachable, and relatable demeanor helps him to meet young people where they’re at and empower them as they learn to work through life’s challenges.
Parents and Families
Sometimes the people we love the most are also the most challenging. Tanner understands this better than anyone. When it comes to teenagers, half the time it’s difficult to understand them and the other half of the time they don’t understand themselves!
By being nonjudgmental, understanding, and encouraging Tanner provides a comfortable atmosphere for families as they work to find solutions that bring them closer together.
For Fun…
Outside of using his free time to serve others, Tanner loves to spend quality time with his girlfriend and go on adventures in the city with her. He also enjoys playing video games with his lifelong friends, connecting with his family, and going for walks with his Siberian Husky Balto.

![Did you catch my last post on how to make new friends as an adult woman?I’ll be the first to admit, talking to new people can be nerve-wracking, so I came up with a few easy icebreakers to get the conversation started: 🧊"I noticed your [bag/shirt/shoes, etc.]. That's really cute! Where did you get it?"🧊"My child is starting at this school/daycare next week. Where does your child go?"🧊"I've been looking for something new to read. Do you have any recommendations?"🧊"Have you tried any new restaurants or coffee shops in the area lately? I'm always looking for new places to check out."🧊“I’m prioritizing staying healthy right now. What kind of exercise do you do?”🧊“What shows are you loving right now? Mine are [tell them your favorite shows].”🧊“Do you listen to podcasts? Which ones are your favorite?”🧊“Do you have any interesting hobbies?”“Where are you vacationing this summer?”🧊“I’m interested in volunteering, do you have any organizations you can recommend?”Remember, icebreakers are meant to be light conversation starters - a good place to start is to simply introduce yourself, shake hands, and smile. For best results, always try to choose an icebreaker that has some context to the situations you’re in.Finally, it’s 100% normal to feel awkward and you can rest assured that most people feel the same when they’re meeting someone new. Embrace whatever feelings you’re having and just be yourself.#mentalhealth #mentalhealthmatters #therapist #relationshippodcast #icebreakers](https://inspirecounselingcenter.com/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
