About Tamara

Tamara Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 18 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem, life changes, relationship concerns, parenting strain, career questions, ADHD, and related issues. She also supports people from LGBT backgrounds and those facing compassion fatigue or bipolar mood concerns.

Her sessions focus on listening first. She encourages people to tell their story and talks through what matters most. Practical steps and short-term tools are part of the work, alongside reflection about goals and values.

Tamara uses a mix of approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness techniques, Solution-Focused methods, and motivational interviewing. In practice this looks like identifying patterns that cause distress, trying small behavior changes, and building skills to manage strong feelings.

She describes her role as both therapist and coach at times, helping clients develop concrete coping strategies. Sessions may include skill practice, goal-setting, and problem-solving exercises aimed at everyday challenges like work stress or life transitions.

Tamara’s background emphasizes adult care and practical support. People who want straightforward, skills-based help with anxiety, depression, grief, or major life shifts may find this approach useful. Sessions are offered in English and she works with adults age 18 and older.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and practice small actions that match those values. It is often used for persistent anxiety, low mood, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and teaches concrete skills for reducing symptoms like panic or depression. Mindfulness techniques teach simple attention and breathing practices to manage stress and emotional reactivity.

Choosing the right approach is part of the early sessions. The therapist and client will talk about goals, preferences, and what feels practical. That conversation guides whether more ACT, CBT, mindfulness, or a mix is used, and adjustments can be made as work continues.

The original biography did not specify which online formats are used, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people practice skills in real-life settings between sessions. Licensed professionals typically adapt exercises and homework for remote sessions so the therapeutic work remains practical and focused.
