How Tammy's Approaches Work Online
Tammy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions often include practical exercises and step-by-step plans to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and improve daily routines. Tammy also uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who are wrestling with change or ambivalence; this approach focuses on clarifying values and building motivation for steps toward those values.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tammy will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on how things go, making decisions together about what helps most.
Online therapy offers ways to meet that fit busy lives. Video calls let people work face-to-face when more connection helps. Phone sessions can be better when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in fits a break at work. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief updates, wave-based check-ins, and ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep going with therapy while juggling family, work, and other demands.
