My therapeutic approach is holistic, collaborative, and person-centered, encouraging active participation in the healing process. When appropriate, I am also equipped to incorporate faith-based interventions in alignment with the client's preferences. In my role as a psychotherapist, I strive to offer steadfast support and empathetic guidance as clients work toward their therapeutic goals. Together, we will engage in a meaningful and transformative process aimed at dismantling generational patterns, addressing intrusive thoughts, and fostering a deeper understanding of emotional experiences, behavioral responses, and interpersonal dynamics. It would be a privilege to accompany you on this journey of personal growth, as you work to reshape your narrative and cultivate a more balanced and fulfilling life.

You've made an important decision to start therapy. I'm glad you're here. It has been said therapy with me is like talking to your "auntie". I will help you see yourself but in such a nurturing way you receive it, and it allows you to do your work. My gifting is in assessment and working with adults and couples. I have always worked in some form of mental health assessment in my career. Most recently I spent 5 years in Grady’s Psychiatric ER. Allowing me to quickly assess needs and develop a life plan with the client. Couple work is also a skilled area for me. Especially when communication has broken down evidenced by constant arguing. Therapy can break couples out of the destructive tit-for-tat cycle. Broken trust, infidelity and unforgiveness are also areas I specialize in. Women’s concerns and issues are important to me. I’ve done extensive work in healing their “father wound”. Tapping the spiritual relationship for healing. Topics include relationships, self development and growth. Another very successful service is my therapeutic walkthrough of popular books. Titles have included RC Blakes’ Queenology and Sophia Nelson’s The Woman Code. Currently, I am authoring The Majestic Woman Mindset, which comes from a woman’s empowerment curriculum I developed.

Starting therapy is always a great decision!!

Welcome! Thank you for checking out this space. My name is Tammy. If you have struggled with traditional talk therapies and feel like they haven't always met your needs then you are at the right spot. I use several different evidence based modalities to help reset your nervous systems, update the way your mind had been processing information to clear out trauma or lingering emotions that have been stuck on. I believe we all have had those times where we ask ourselves; why can't I just get myself to start or stop doing (______) fill in the blank. It is because where we are conscious of things is not where things are being caused. Ready to develop skills and understand yourself in a way that helps you move into the desired behavior you have been wanting, release emotions and energy that no longer are serving a purpose for you greater good. Then let's meet to discuss your personal needs further and go from there!

Do you feel like you need to work out some of your thoughts and feelings? Are you not sure where to start? Hi! I'm Chelsea and I know that feeling all too well. In my therapy practice, I utilize an egalitarian approach while working with people. This means that the therapist and the client are the experts of their own experience.

I think it is okay if someone is not ready or is not sure if they are ready; we all start somewhere! I enjoy watching people evolve and grow into their authentic selves; which includes knowing who they are and what they value. I value self-awareness and introspection, for myself, and want to help others on their path to their wellness.
