About Tammy
With 26 years of experience, Tammy draws on approaches that help people understand thoughts and behaviors.

She also uses mindfulness practices to build calm and Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves.
Tammy has worked with survivors of trauma and abuse and supports people coping with grief, anger, and issues like guilt, shame, or isolation. She also helps clients who face workplace stress, parenting challenges, and intimacy-related concerns. Her experience includes addressing mood disorders and symptoms such as obsessions, phobias, and post-traumatic stress.
Sessions focus on practical skills and clear goals. Tammy helps people set manageable steps and practices to try between meetings. She encourages honest conversation and aims to make progress feel realistic and measurable.
Clients in Louisiana find her straightforward style approachable. Tammy explains clinical ideas in everyday language. That makes it easier for people to try new ways of thinking and behaving and to see gradual changes over time.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Tammy commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions so clients can try specific experiments and measure results. Mindfulness Therapy is another tool she uses to teach simple attention and breathing exercises that reduce reactivity and improve sleep and focus.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tammy will listen to a person's goals, symptoms, and daily routines, then suggest a mix of techniques that fit those needs. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and adjusts methods based on what helps a person make steady progress.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different days and needs. Video is useful for full conversations and skill demonstrations, phone sessions work well when less bandwidth is needed, and messaging or live chat allow quick check-ins or short exercises between meetings. This variety makes it easier to keep momentum and practice new skills in real life.
