Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Tammy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and observable change. One common approach involves cognitive work that helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice alternative thoughts and behaviors. This kind of work can help with anxiety, guilt, and low self-esteem.Another approach emphasizes behavioral strategies such as breaking tasks into small steps, building routines, and rehearsing new responses. These techniques are often useful for addictions, depression, and impulsivity because they focus on what to do differently in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tammy collaborates with each person to set goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. The plan evolves from the client’s needs, preferences, and progress rather than being fixed at the start.
