I am committed to guiding individuals towards building healthier relationships and habits in every aspect of their life. My holistic approach focuses on addressing and exploring the relational and behavioral patterns that impact mental health. I believe that every person has the inherent capacity to make positive changes in their life, and sometimes it just takes the right support and guidance to take the first step towards growth.

Hi there. Firstly, my name Siobhán is Irish & pronounced like sha-v-on. And I am glad you are here. As you have the sense for mental well-being is vital for navigating life. And having someone in your corner with expertise and compassion provide a one-on-one educational possibility to increase the ease of life with practical skills. I approach everyone as a fellow human & use my bubbly personality, genuine curiosity, & compassion to develop rapport. My specialities include grief, loss, life transitions, sexuality, and neurodivergence. Basically: all of the existentialism of simply being human on this wild life we call life.

Choosing a psychotherapist can feel daunting. People often enter therapy during times of vulnerability. At a time when you are potentially feeling overwhelmed with stress, anxiety, anger, sadness, or depression it can be challenging to trust a stranger with all these feelings and intimate details about your life. I view my role as a therapist as being able to fully understand your experience and to use that understanding to help you think through situations that have become increasingly challenging. I believe in creating a safe space for my clients, and working collaboratively in order to help you regain a sense of strength, confidence, and control.

I've worked with a wide range of individuals and couples over my 30+ years of practice. The center of my work is to provide a safe and supportive environment for you to sort out what concerns you, to discover what influences(past and present) may keep you stuck and repeating dissatisfying patterns or relationships, and to move beyond them to feel more in charge of your life.
I offer a warm and interactive style, supportive of you and what you want to achieve.
As I strongly believe that my clients should be able to afford therapy, I offer reduced fees to make this available.

Does your life today reflect your hopes and desired choices -- and satisfy your own needs? Or is the life you live defined by others' needs and expectations -- or by outdated expectations for yourself? To face life's challenges today and tomorrow requires greater self-awareness. If you wish to learn more about yourself, to not only come up with solutions to the problems you face today, but to have tools with which to meet the future, we can work together well. I can be of special help in working through relationship concerns, whether seen as a couple or as an individual.

My role as a therapist is to help you reach your potential. I work with individuals and couples who want to feel more connected and fulfilled in their relationships. Often what holds people and relationships back is a pattern of unhelpful thoughts, behaviors and interactions. Identifying these patterns and developing strategies to overcome them can empower you to get unstuck and move toward your goals. I support couples to gain the insight and skills to overcome conflict, improve communication and find connection. I help individuals grow in awareness, heal from the past and conquer the barriers keeping them from the life they want.

My style is direct, transparent and positive. All work is supported by solid psychodynamic theory. I am comfortable with challenges. Most of my clients come in to address relationship issues, career and life-stage transitions, depression and anxiety. However, I have considerable experience in areas of disordered eating, addiction, and (Complex)PTSD. I believe that in order for successful transformational work to occur, the therapeutic relationship is central. Therefore, I offer an initial free 20 minute meeting to test for the ineffable 'fit.' I am a private practice out-of-network provider. WEBSITE: tamaratuckermft.com

I see children, adolescents, and adults in individual psychotherapy and psychoanalysis who are struggling with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship problems, life cycle challenges, and trauma. At times the way people cope with and manage their past or present difficulties create additional barriers to feeling good, and fulfilling their hopes and goals. As a conscientious, professional, and compassionate clinician, I strive to provide a therapeutic relationship in which together we can think about, understand and help you work through those feelings and thoughts that are troubling, confusing and worrisome.

I want to assist you in examining why you feel like your life is not where you think or sense it should be. Why you have a nagging feeling that perhaps you're wasting time and not living your life in a more deep and fulfilling manner. You may think you're “not good enough,” or “if only this would have/not have happened," life would be different. The activities you do feel banal, going to work/school is dreadful, relationships and family are difficult, and the values and beliefs that once held you have lost their ground. You feel lonely, depressed, anxious, and perhaps substance use is worsening. You’re wondering about doing therapy.
