Background and approach

Mindfulness practices teach simple breathing and attention skills to reduce tension in the moment. Tammy has 26 years of social work experience and practices in Louisiana. Her background includes work with people who have survived trauma and abuse, and she helps them find safety and steadiness again.

She also supports people dealing with relationship struggles, parenting stress, sleep problems, anger, and mood concerns. In sessions she listens for practical patterns and offers concrete tools. That can mean short exercises to try at home, communication strategies to reduce conflict, or ways to rebuild trust in oneself after hard experiences.

She keeps language straightforward so parents and busy adults can use ideas right away. She blends narrative ideas when helpful, inviting clients to tell their story and notice how it shapes daily choices. Tammy also uses trauma-focused techniques when past events keep affecting current life.

Her goal is to help people regain control over routines, relationships, and emotional reactions.

How Tammy’s approaches translate to online care

Tammy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. That approach is practical and focused, and it works well for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and mood regulation. Mindfulness Therapy is used to build simple attention and breathing habits that reduce stress and improve sleep; these skills are easy to practice between sessions and fit well into daily life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tammy will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She often combines tools and checks in regularly to see what helps, adjusting plans based on progress and feedback.

Online formats make getting support more flexible. Video calls let people meet face to face for skills practice and conversation. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option when video is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, quick coping prompts, or follow-up between longer sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy schedules and keep momentum between meetings.
