LPC, 15 years of experience
Hi, I’m Tamela! I’m a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC), Certified Professional Supervisor (CPS), and Sexuality Educator dedicated to helping adults heal, grow, and thrive. Whether you’re navigating a tough season, exploring your sexual wellness, or simply ready for change — I’m here to help you move forward with clarity and confidence. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and collaborative. Together, we’ll uncover what’s holding you back, strengthen your self-awareness, and build tools to create the balanced, fulfilling life you deserve. Let’s make this next chapter your best one yet.
In the first mental health therapy session, clients will encounter a welcoming atmosphere fostering trust and rapport. I will conduct an initial assessment, exploring the client's history, concerns, and goals collaboratively. Together, we will set clear treatment objectives, ensuring a focused therapeutic approach. Throughout, the client's thoughts and emotions are explored in a non-judgmental space. Expectations for future sessions, including homework assignments, are established, fostering collaboration and accountability.
I'll be your mental health advocate, empowering you with coping skills and education to navigate challenges effectively.
I enjoy working with individuals and couples who want to be one step closer to a new you, where you feel empowered and on a positive path to growth and well-being.
I bring over a decade of experience in utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques. I will do my best to support you in developing the skills necessary to effectively manage your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
I have more than ten years of experience applying Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) methodologies. I will do my best to guide and empower you in cultivating adaptive coping strategies and enhancing emotional regulation skills through education and support.
Utilizing Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), our emphasis will be on addressing the present moment. Together, we will concentrate on identifying and implementing practical solutions to your current challenges, fostering a proactive approach towards achieving your desired goals.
With over two years of experience using EMDR, I help clients safely process painful experiences, release emotional blocks, and build healthier ways of thinking and feeling. My approach combines compassion, structure, and empowerment—helping you move from surviving to truly thriving.
