Meet Tammi

I believe the relationship between client and therapist is extremely important therefore I hope to foster the healing process by providing an authentic safe, caring, secure, and non-judgmental atmosphere where you can feel heard. Therefore, my main goal is to focus on the client and meet them where they are now. While empowering clients to recognize the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I take a compassionate and collaborative approach to helping clients on their journeys toward healing and happiness.
