I have learned that I am not for everyone and everyone is not for me. I am a whole vibe professionally speaking. Therapy is a journey one in which the client is in the drivers seat and the therapist is in the passenger seat, shotgun! The client that wants to get to the root of the pain, hurt, awkwardness, craziness, sadness, the list goes on is a great match with Ms. Tam. The client that also pulls from hope, spirit, experience, the unknown is a match with me. Its helpful for the client to remain open throughout at least 3-6 sessions after the assessment in order to fully rate symptom change.

I am trained or certified in all of the following modalities: Person-Centered Therapy, CBT (Cognitive Behavior Therapy) SFBT (Solution Focus Based Therapy), DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy), Trauma Informed and EMDR. Your first appointment includes several assessments and interview questions to determine a diagnosis if applicable.

If you are looking for a diverse and inclusive minded therapist, with years of experience in life, education, social services, and mental health services consider myself. I will try to help you. All counseling sessions will be treated with strict confidentiality and is protected by state and federal laws.

I have a strong client base for issues with anxiety, depression, and trauma. The first session dives deep into what will scratch the surface and open certain doors to rooms and places the client wants and needs to explore; or not. I recommend minimum 3 sessions to build upon your toolbox to help manage your symptoms.
