Hi there! I'm Tammy, a seasoned clinical counselor licensed in Ohio with over 25 years of experience in the helping profession.

I'm living proof that anything is possible, and I'm here

After over 30 years in the field, I am reducing my practice to working with LPC's who are interested in supervision or consulting. I have received awards for my practice as well as supervision from both local and state organizations. "The Portable Supervisor," is a book that I wrote and was published in 2023. It is for practicum students and supervisors, and can be found on Amazon. The book is being taught in higher education institutions for practicum. If you a client and are still here reading (!), I have a intern who is looking to work with you.

Beyond this, I am further interested in working with women who suffer from anxiety/depression during pregnancy or postpartum and those who struggle.
Difficult, uncomfortable, and unexpected circumstances happen in life. Relationships may struggle or sometimes come to an end. Stress, grief, hurt, anxiety, and depression are often a result. In our society, where people hesitate to talk openly about death and dying, relationship troubles, financial strain, or women's issues, it is crucial that you have a place to go where you feel safe to do so. Counseling is a powerful asset to help you work through a variety of issues and is also one of the best preventative healthcare measures. Collaboratively, I can help you accomplish your personal goals in a comfortable and private setting.

I love using play therapy to help kids and their families. Play is the free expression of what is in a child's heart. Young children who struggle academically and socially may be lagging in the skills they need to succeed. Others who have experienced loss or trauma may find it difficult to verbally engage with a caring adult to work through their pain. It is within the safety of a therapeutic child-centered playroom that these children use their natural language of play to heal, build coping skills, and learn to make sense of their world. It is my honor to facilitate this process at Trettin Play Therapy Services.

Life is difficult. Those words, originally penned by psychiatrist and author M. Scott Peck in his book The Road Less Traveled, suggest what is perhaps the most compelling reason to seek therapy. Life can indeed be difficult for all of us - therapists included. And yet growth and change are always possible. It is unfortunate that working with a mental health professional can sometimes carry a stigma. In truth, prioritizing your mental health is just as important as attending to your physical health.

Female Therapists
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, this is not an important factor, as there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or ingrained beliefs about how people of different genders think and behave. Exploring the roots of such preferences and considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether their therapist’s gender truly matters to them.
Should I see a female therapist?
Many people—not just women—prefer to see a female therapist, either because they believe that a woman will be able to relate to their specific challenges (for example, sexism in the workplace) or because they imagine feeling more comfortable disclosing sensitive information to a woman. Such beliefs may not turn out to be accurate, however, and adhering too rigidly to a gender preference can at times hinder a client from finding the best therapeutic match.
Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists—both men and women—may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK—even encouraged!—to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
