How Tammy’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s agenda. In this approach the therapist reflects what she hears and helps people name their priorities, which can be useful for issues like anxiety, parenting concerns, and questions around pregnancy and childbirth.

Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change. It uses open questions and reflective listening to build momentum toward goals like managing stress, addressing substance use, or making career shifts.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tammy collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs and goals. She checks in about what is helping and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. It also makes regular follow-up simpler for people juggling caregiving, work, or new parent responsibilities.
