How Tammy's Approaches Work Online
Tammy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors that reduce anxiety or improve mood. She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the lasting impact of traumatic events and help clients build skills for managing triggers and painful memories.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tammy collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals and daily life. Together they try techniques and adjust the plan based on what helps most in short-term and longer-term work.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people have face-to-face conversations when schedules allow. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not desired. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or when someone needs flexibility during a busy day. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, caregiving, or other routines.
