About Tammy
Tammy Quarles is an MS LPC - a licensed professional counselor in Mississippi with 23 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, career questions, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting strains, anger, and compassion fatigue.
She focuses on helping people cope with life changes. Tammy looks for the strengths people already have and uses those as a starting point. Sessions are collaborative and practical. She aims to help clients identify obstacles and find everyday tools that make life more manageable.
Her style draws on client-centered ideas, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. That means sessions often centre on listening, noticing patterns, setting small goals, and trying concrete steps between meetings. People can expect straightforward conversation and strategies they can test in real life.
Tammy has supported clients through transitions such as starting new jobs, adjusting after loss, navigating parenting challenges, and managing panic or social anxiety. She also addresses issues like body image, guilt and shame, money stress, and postpartum mood struggles. Her background supports both emotional coping and practical problem solving.
For someone in early adulthood feeling behind or overwhelmed, Tammy offers a calm, direct way to sort things out. She helps people set short-term goals, practice new habits, and take the next small step toward steadier daily life.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what feels most important to the client. Online sessions using that approach typically emphasize understanding concerns, naming strengths, and deciding what to work on together. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple noticing and grounding practices that can be tried between sessions to reduce reactivity and heighten focus. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their own goals and resolve mixed feelings about change by using guided conversation and small achievable steps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tammy will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences, and then together they’ll choose methods and short-term targets to try. That collaborative process helps keep sessions relevant and focused on what the client wants to change now.
The practical benefits of online appointments include fitting sessions around class or work schedules and reducing travel time so check-ins can be easier to keep. Confirm the current session formats before booking, since specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it simpler to practice mindfulness exercises between meetings and to design small experiments that fit into everyday life.
