Let’s be honest, life doesn’t come with a manual. But that doesn’t mean you have to figure it all out alone. Hi, I’m Tammy, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes that therapy doesn’t have to feel like a chore or a courtroom. It’s more like a conversation with someone who really gets it (and happens to be trained in evidence-based strategies that actually work).

I provide services to young adults and adults experiencing issues with anxiety, depression, life transitions, adjusting to new/different life situations, relationships, addiction, and trauma. I focus on identifying existing strengths and unlocking some new ones to move towards a more fulfilling life. If you find yourself having difficulty with managing the day-to-day, finding direction and balance, engaging with what brings you meaning, or feeling at conflict with your values, I believe my diverse background working with individuals, families, and addictions allows me to use a tailored approach to address your needs.

I want my clients to feel welcome, comfortable, and truly seen. In my practice, you are the expert on yourself. My role is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can be as honest as you’re ready to be. Together, we’ll explore your experiences and work toward meaningful change at your own pace. I draw from a combination of evidence-based modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and strengths-based counseling. I also integrate somatic skills and creative outlets like art to help process emotions in a way that feels natural to you.

There are moments when we realize our emotional and mental health needs more care and attention than we’ve been able to give it. Life can shift suddenly, and what once felt manageable can start to feel heavy and uncertain. You might find yourself trying to hold it all together while quietly feeling overwhelmed or disconnected. These experiences don’t mean you’re failing, they’re simply signs that you deserve support, understanding, and space to heal.

You’ve spent so much time holding it all together, but inside, it feels like something’s stuck. You might be processing trauma, living with anxiety, or carrying shame about parts of yourself you’ve learned to hide. You’re tired of surviving your way through life and ready for space to breathe, feel, and make sense of it all. You want therapy that feels safe, collaborative, and real: a space where you can show up fully as yourself.

Life can be full of challenges and it can be a greater battle to ask for help. At times we may not know how to ask for help and that is okay.

As a therapist I am here to help you on that journey of achieving your goals.

Many people experience points in their lives where they feel stuck, challenged, inadequate, and/or like they are unsure how they can continue on with living. One thing that people have in common is that we desire to be able to live our best lives and up to our fullest potential. When conditions and circumstances in life make this difficult, such as: depression, anxiety, ADHD, life transitions, LGBTQ+ challenges, and trauma, it can feel like there is no clear path to living up to our fullest potential.
