I believe that every client is different and love to pull from all psychological theories in order to best help the individual I’m working with. I truly enjoy working alongside a client in order to develop skills that work best for them and helping them to foster growth in all aspects of their lives.

Healing is an ongoing process of discovering YOU, embracing YOU, and daring to re-introduce yourself to a world that is unfamiliar with the “new” you. Wherever you are in your journey of discovering your identity, I am happy to meet you exactly where you are. My therapeutic style centers around creating a safe and authentic relationship. I will ask you to explore your strengths, your past, your childhood experiences, your internal and external connections. From learning these patterns, you can get to a place of shifting the ways you can cope, manage life stressors, and place new power in the values that serve you moving forward.

Taking the initial step to find the right fit for therapy can be a challenging decision, and I will meet you exactly where you are at in this moment to get you to the right place. Focusing on the whole-self by integrating mindfulness and holistic techniques, I provide a soft place to land as you make meaning of the struggles and triumphs that have shaped you into the person you are today. I hope to help you reclaim inner strength and guide you to improve communication skills, understand how your attachment style allows you to relate to the world and heal unresolved trauma. You are worthy of love and belonging, and you are not alone.

My ideal client is someone who is seeking a safe space to land where they can feel comforted, affirmed, and valued. I know your journey has been unique and nuanced, and I would love to become your trusted ally in healing as you learn how to construct a life you can truly enjoy.

Together, we can work to cultivate a space within you where you can feel truly loved exactly as you are. Your vulnerability will never be taken for granted in the therapy room!

Connection & Sense of Belonging: We all want to be accepted and know we matter. Challenging life experiences disrupt these connections and leave you feeling isolated and alone. My first priority is creating a meaningful relationship through respect and non-judgement by listen to your story and what brings you to seek support and guidance. People I work with struggle with anxiety, depression, and often have negative core beliefs from past experiences that inform present decisions and actions. I help people find relief and re-define beliefs in a more positive direction.

Grounded in experiential and existential orientations, I work to understand the meaning you make of life. I walk with you to help identify purpose, values, and behaviors to live more authentically and deliberately. I foster a supportive, interpersonal therapeutic relationship, and my holistic approach taps into the body's innate wisdom to promote adaptive responses and facilitate healing.

Well hello there! I'm Tammy, and it's so good to meet you! I’m a dedicated, fully licensed, and board-certified professional counselor who’s passionate about supporting individuals on their journey to wellness. I use "talk therapies" to provide therapeutic support, guidance, clinical insight/education, and advocacy for those I serve.

As a counselor, I believe that working through issues such as depression, anxiety, co-dependency, addictions... in present time is very important, along with examining wounds from childhood that are barriers to moving forward. Through this work, healing can occur with understanding, self-compassion, authenticity, and positive change. Most people come to therapy related to feelings based on fear or pain. I provide a warm and compassionate place that allows my clients to openly share and have a voice that is respected and heard. I look forward to hearing your story.

My purpose is to create a safe nonjudgemental space for people that struggle with sadness or depression, and or feel overwhelmed with stress or anxiety.

Learning to manage life can be a challenge. When complicated by life transitions, performance pressures, chronic health conditions, mental health diagnoses, or a host of other unforeseen obstacles, it is important to seek guidance. I have shared this journey with individuals & families for over 22 years. My clinical training, the use of research supported treatments, such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), & Sports Counseling have allowed me to successfully work with individuals of all ages (children, teens, adults, & geriatrics), athletes, & business professionals who are confronted with a variety of concerns.
