Together we can develop a plan for progress and get you, or your child, help immediately.
"How can I help my child?... What should I expect?... Are we the only one's who are going through this?... Will my child get better?... Is there help for this?..." I hear these questions very frequently from concerned parents who want the very best for their child, and perhaps you resonate with some, or all of these, as well. I offer support and safety to walk through the tough stuff and direction for real, positive change. Perhaps your child is struggling with anxiety, having difficulty making friends, or you just want to talk with a professional to make sure your child is on track. Whatever the circumstance may be, we are here.

I have experience in working with couples, children, adolescents, and families on a diverse set of issues.
One of the greatest things about life is the opportunity we have to truly discover ourselves whether it is alone or through close relationships. However, sometimes we get lost and we may feel alone, anxious, depressed, stressed, unimportant, alone or feel disconnected from the world. As much as we try to reach for life it can sometimes feel strange to feel or explain what is going on with us but counseling gives you the opportunity to feel safe. Seeking out help makes you strong, and gives you power to face your fears. This process may feel intimidating, but I strive to make counseling fit each persons unique experience.

I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I started my educational journey working with children who have special needs, focusing on Autism. The last few years, I have emphasized on working with young children, adolescents, and parents who have experienced multiple traumas. My outlook on working with clients' who have experienced trauma is focusing around the question of "What has happened to you". Assisting the client overcome their personal traumas and seeing the growth and positive outcomes of healing, has to be the most rewarding part of the therapeutic process.

I have experience working with a variety of individuals from children to adults from diverse cultures.
Life sometimes takes us in directions that are unknown, unwanted, unexpected and out of our control. When it does, it can appear overwhelming and difficult to face these issues and emotions by ourselves. Sometimes we feel that is the only option in order to succeed. What we tend to forget is life is a journey that we should take as a community and not individually. We can overcome theses issues together. My role would be to ride alongside with you, supportively and with an open mind to help you achieve the life that best fits you.

Hello. I am Tammy. I recently retired from school counseling. As a counselor in public schools, I have experience with children of ages 5-12. Although I have worked with children in the schools for 29 years and they are near and dear to my heart, I welcome a chance to also be able to counsel adults in private practice. Throughout the years I have noticed that the counselor and client relationship of trust and support favorably contributes to success.
