About Tami
Tami centers sessions on each person’s strengths. She listens, reflects, and helps clients build new coping skills. That can mean trying small behavior changes, practicing calmer attention, or reworking stories people tell about themselves. She aims to be practical and steady while clients try new ways of handling old problems.
Her background includes work in local mental health settings and experience with trauma and abuse recovery. She notes particular experience with anxiety and self-esteem concerns and has worked with men, women, and teens. She identifies as LGBTQ affirming and welcomes people from different faiths and cultures.
Tami combines several therapy methods depending on what a person needs. She uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral tools, mindfulness exercises, narrative ideas, and psychodynamic listening to tailor sessions. The mix changes with each person and their goals.
She offers phone and video sessions by appointment and checks messages regularly during the week. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that fits. Tami describes therapy as a collaborative process and focuses on steady progress over time.

How these approaches work in online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects what she hears, and helps people notice their own strengths and choices. This approach suits concerns like low self-esteem, life changes, and relationship stress.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions link together. It uses practical steps such as small behavior changes and thought experiments to reduce worry and improve mood. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stressful life events.
Mindfulness Therapy brings attention and simple awareness practices into daily life. Short exercises can help with anxiety, overwhelming emotion, and building steady coping skills. These practices are mixed in when they match a person’s goals and comfort.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Tami works with each person to decide which methods to try first and adjusts based on what helps. The plan can shift over time as needs and goals evolve.
Confirm session options before booking since formats are scheduled by appointment. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow quick check-ins by phone or video, and reduce travel time. The focus is on practical ways to use therapy within everyday life, not on any single promised result.
