How Tammy Uses Therapy Models Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name what really matters to them and take small steps toward those values. It’s useful for anxiety, life transitions, and for people who feel stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like depression or anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building trust so people feel understood while they make changes.

Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Tammy will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and past experiences to decide which methods to try first. She encourages collaboration and checks in regularly to see what is working and what should change.

Confirm the current online session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here.
