About Tammy
She brings 25 years of experience to sessions and often begins with a person-centered approach to get to know each client's needs. From there she blends methods to match the situation, commonly using cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical skills when helpful. This flexible way of working helps tailor sessions to someone's goals rather than forcing one method.
Sessions usually start by building rapport and mapping what brought someone to therapy. Tammy explains thoughts and behaviors plainly, and she uses short exercises and homework to make progress between sessions. She may offer brief check-ins during the first weeks to help establish a strong foundation.
Tammy has worked with many concerns, including addictions, trauma, parenting struggles, identity and intimacy issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and aging and geriatric issues. She also supports people facing career changes, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her focus is on practical tools that produce daily improvements.
People who prefer a direct, down-to-earth conversation and clear steps often feel most comfortable with her. Tammy aims to support clients in finding what is already working, noticing what causes distress, and taking manageable actions toward healthier routines and relationships.

How Tammy’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and helping people find their own answers; it is useful for building trust and exploring values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behavior and teaches clear skills to reduce anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds tools for managing intense emotions and improving coping during crises.Figuring out the right mix of approaches is part of the early work. Tammy will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences. That process includes trying techniques in session and adjusting the plan based on what helps.
The biography does not specify which session formats are offered for online work, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can guide homework, teach skills, and use brief midweek contacts to strengthen progress while keeping therapy practical and focused.
