ABOUT
Care rooted in the body, the breath, and the community that shaped us.
Tiarra Abu-Bakr is a licensed psychotherapist, holistic wellness practitioner, clinical supervisor, and founder of True Self Holistic Therapy. With over 20 years of heart centered service, she specializes in supporting high functioning women who have learned to survive by being strong, capable, and dependable, often while quietly carrying trauma, anxiety, emotional exhaustion, and relational disappointment.
Her approach blends evidence based psychotherapy with somatic and holistic practices to help women regulate their nervous systems, reconnect with their emotions, deepen self-trust, and create a more compassionate relationship with themselves. Through her Way Home Framework, Tiarra helps women move beyond simply functioning and begin the gentle work of returning home to themselves.
Tiarra is licensed to practice in DC, Maryland, Virginia, and Florida and is a Board Approved Supervisor in Maryland. She is a Certified Trauma Therapist, Certified Psychedelic Assisted Therapist, Level 2 Gottman trained clinician, 200 hour trained yoga teacher, and Reiki Master.
