Hello y Bienvenidos
Hello! I am Tabbie Marcella. I’m a therapist based in the Truckee/Tahoe area, offering in-person and online therapy to folks across California.
También ofrezco terapia en español y disfruto trabajar con personas y familias de habla hispana, conectando en el idioma en el que se sientan más cómodas.
A Free Teen Support Group for March 2026
In recent months, our Truckee community has experienced profound loss and shock. Events that feel unimaginable have touched families, schools, and friend groups in ways that ripple far beyond what we see on the surface. Teens often carry more than they show.
​
This free, month-long grief group is an offering to our community — a space for young people to process, create, connect, and not feel alone in what they are holding. Whether grief feels big and loud or quiet and confusing, there is room for it here.
​
Please call if you have any questions or would like to bring your teen in.
I love to work with:
Self-Esteem, Identity & Healing After Trauma
Woman's Health & Perinatal Support
Grief & Life Transitions
Teens & Young Adults
Family Communication
Couples/Parent Coaching
My Approach
I take a trauma-informed, nervous-system aware approach to therapy. That means we move at your pace, prioritize emotional safety, and always center your sense of choice and control in the process.
​
I draw from a few core frameworks that shape my work:
Narrative Therapy
I help clients explore the stories they carry about themselves and their lives, and gently work toward creating narratives that feel more accurate, empowering, and compassionate.
Family Systems & Relational Therapy
I look at how relationships, family dynamics, and early experiences shape the way we connect, communicate, and protect ourselves. This work often includes understanding patterns rather than placing blame.
Trauma-Informed Therapy Practices
I approach trauma work with gentleness and care, focusing on safety, stabilization, and nervous system regulation before diving into deeper processing. You are always in control of the pace and depth of our work.
