How Tammy works
Tammy listens, asks clear questions, and helps people name what they want to change. She balances empathy with practical steps so clients can try new ways of coping between sessions. Tammy draws on a few different approaches to tailor work to each person.
She uses client-centered methods to follow a person’s priorities, cognitive behavioral tools to spot and shift unhelpful thoughts, and EMDR when trauma memories need careful processing. She also uses DBT skills for emotion regulation and existential ideas to explore meaning and life direction. Her background includes work with individuals, families, and groups across a range of life concerns.
Tammy describes the therapy space as open, nonjudgmental, and supportive. She helps people set realistic goals and practices that fit their daily life. Sessions can address both immediate problems and longer-term patterns.
Tammy invites clients to work at a pace that feels right and to try approaches that match their goals. If someone is ready to begin, she guides them through the next steps toward scheduling and starting care.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches you can access online
Tammy uses client-centered therapy to ground sessions in each person’s priorities, which means she listens closely and follows the issues that feel most important. This approach helps when someone needs a compassionate space to make sense of their feelings and set personal goals.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a practical method that helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is useful for worries, low mood, and many everyday problems because it focuses on small changes that add up.
EMDR is offered when trauma memories are a central concern; it supports processing difficult memories with a structured, paced approach. Tammy combines this with emotion-regulation skills from DBT when stronger coping tools are needed.
Deciding which approach to use is part of the work. Tammy will talk through options with each person and together they will pick methods that match goals, comfort levels, and what a person wants to change. That collaborative planning can change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions are available as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging work well for quick check-ins or during a busy day. These formats make therapy more flexible so people can fit sessions around work, caregiving, or travel.
