About Tammy
Tammy Chatfield is a licensed professional counselor with 20 years of experience practicing in Oregon. She centers her work on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. Tammy aims to help clients find practical steps forward and regain a sense of purpose and confidence.
Her style is direct and compassionate. She listens for patterns that cause repeated pain, such as abandonment, attachment wounds, or control issues. Sessions focus on clear goals and manageable actions, not long lists of theory.
How Tammy works
Clients can expect straightforward conversation and concrete tools to try between sessions. Tammy draws on several approaches to tailor care to each person. She uses Attachment-Based ideas to look at relationship patterns.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify thoughts that increase anxiety and replace them with more useful thinking. She also uses Solution-Focused and Narrative techniques to build on strengths and reframe personal stories. Tammy often works with people facing workplace strain, midlife questions, or trouble with self-worth.
She helps those dealing with divorce or separation, guilt and shame, and the search for life purpose. Young adults and women with social anxiety or issues around self-love also find practical support. In sessions she blends listening with clear plans.
Tammy encourages small experiments that produce measurable change. The aim is steady progress toward goals like improved coping, healthier relationships, or renewed direction.

Approach and online options for measurable change
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns show up now. Tammy uses it to help people notice repeating behaviors and build healthier ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It helps with anxiety, stress, and unhelpful thinking by teaching practical tools for changing responses. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, achievable steps and what is already working in someone's life to move toward clear goals.Tammy treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She discusses options with each person and shapes sessions around goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That collaborative process helps decide which mix of methods will be tried and adjusted over time.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules and different needs. Video calls allow full face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be used for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, and daily life while still getting structured, goal-focused care from a licensed professional.
