About Tamara
Tamara Mason is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in New York with five years of professional experience. She works with young adults and other clients facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes.
Tamara encourages people to name what feels hardest right now and to use their strengths to move forward. She approaches sessions as a collaborative conversation where the client’s perspective guides the work. The focus is on clear steps that reduce overwhelm and increase day-to-day coping.
Her sessions often blend client-centered listening with practical cognitive tools. That means Tamara listens first to understand a person’s priorities, then helps them test small changes in thinking and behavior. Mindfulness practices and motivational strategies are added when they fit the client’s goals.
She pays attention to issues common in early adulthood, such as feeling stuck after school, navigating first jobs, relationship uncertainty, identity questions, and workplace stress. Tamara also addresses concerns like panic attacks, self-harm thoughts, body image, and communication or commitment difficulties.
People can expect straightforward language, short-term goals when useful, and space to try things between sessions. Tamara asks clients to notice what works and what doesn’t, then adjusts the plan together. This practical orientation helps people break big problems into manageable steps.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. Online, this looks like conversations that start with the client’s goals and priorities and build from there. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. In remote sessions CBT often includes homework exercises and short skills practice between meetings. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices that can reduce anxiety and be used in daily life.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tamara works collaboratively to test methods and adjust them based on what the client notices. She discusses options, tries techniques in session, and refines the plan together so it fits a person’s preferences and goals.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people practice skills in the contexts where they actually live and work, which helps translate learning into everyday routines.
