I provide trauma-informed care to women and men. I want to help clarify whatever it is you want to heal. What is it that you aren't getting from your environment that leads you to overwork, over think, isolate or continue habits you already know don't serve you? To communicate better in your relationships I will use what I’ve learned to help guide you in how to disagree without hurting, highlight what is already working, and uncover the struggles you face to get to the core reasons why we get stuck. I help individuals with ADHD, OCD, and other anxiety disorders. The label doesn't matter as much as you do.

Welcome — You Deserve to Feel Safe and Heard If you’re here, you might be feeling scared to reach out. Maybe you’re worried about being judged, or afraid you’ll end up with a therapist who only asks, “And how does that make you feel?” without truly helping. You may be: Feeling overwhelmed or like it’s hard to breathe. Carrying tightness in your chest from constant worry. Struggling with hopelessness and the sense that life is always against you. Hearing others dismiss your pain, telling you that you’re “overreacting.” Facing challenges in your relationship—whether it’s conflict, thoughts of divorce, or infidelity. Working through identity concerns (gender, body image, or self-worth). Feeling pressure to be perfect, or feeling angry, stuck, and stressed without healthy coping tools. If any of this resonates with you, I want you to know: you are not alone, and help is possible. Together, we can create a space where you feel safe, supported, and empowered to heal.

My clients are survivors — individuals who have endured family conflict, sexual abuse, and childhood trauma, yet continue to choose healing every day. Each person carries a story shaped by pain, resilience, and the desire to reclaim their sense of self. I honor the strength it takes to confront the past and the courage it requires to seek support. Many of my clients have spent years in survival mode, navigating feelings of shame, guilt, confusion, and loss. Through compassionate care and a safe, nonjudgmental space, they are learning that healing is not only possible — it’s deeply deserved. The healing journey is rarely linear. It may involve moments of grief, breakthroughs of self-awareness, and the slow rebuilding of trust — in others and in oneself. My work with clients focuses on helping them process their experiences, restore a sense of safety, and rediscover their inner resilience. Every client’s story is unique, but their strength is universal. They are breaking generational cycles, finding their voice, and learning to live beyond survival. Through therapy, community, and self-compassion, they are transforming trauma into growth and silence into empowerment. I believe that every survivor holds the potential for healing and renewal.

I received my B.A. in Psychology and Masters of Social Work from The University of Akron. I believe in a strength based and client centered approach, where your needs and goals are at the forefront of our work together. Recognizing that there is not a one-size fits all approach to wellness, I use an eclectic therapeutic technique, tailoring therapy to the individual.

Sometimes life is hard. Do you find yourself struggling to find your way? Maybe trauma, depression, anxiety, a major mental illness or a substance use disorder is standing in your way to a comfortable, successful life. As Rumi reminds us "When you start to walk on the way, the way appears". I am here to empower you to do just that; discover your strengths and your way to creating or recapturing the healthy life you deserve. In my practice I offer 3 services including psychotherapy for your healing needs, life coaching for meeting your goals and a Trauma Informed Martial Arts (TIMA) class to help you regain your personal power.

Hi there! I'm Tammy, a clinical counselor licensed in Ohio with over 25 years of experience in the helping profession. Three years ago, I realized my dream by founding Hearts To Minds, LLC, my private practice. I'm driven by a deep passion to inspire and provide a safe space for others. My mission is to empower individuals who are committed to helping themselves. Ms. Harmon-Rodriguez obtained Trauma-Focused CBT and Motivational training through the State of Ohio. She started her career as an MH Social Worker in 2002, working with dually diagnosed adults and children, which inspired and sparked her interest in the specialization of the dually diagnosed and family systems with evidence-based and cognitive-based treatments. She has dedicated herself to providing comprehensive care for individuals with co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders. This early experience ignited her passion for delving into the complexities of dual diagnosis, leading her to specialize in evidence-based and cognitive treatments tailored to individuals and their families.
