As a military veteran, her understanding and experiences are valuable in her work with veterans and military families.  Tammara works with an array of issues and is experienced with anxiety, substance use, grief and loss, illness, trauma (intimate partner violence and domestic violence), depression, self-harm, suicide, relational issues, and life transitions. Tammara’s theoretical perspective is a faith-based, systemic lens and integrative approach which includes family systems theory, trauma-informed, solution-focused, and client-centered interventions: Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Bowens Family Systems Theory (BFST). 

Tammara utilizes these techniques and interventions to assist her clients with processing their issues, but first she provides a support space built on active listening, empathy, unconditional positive regard, and compassion to establish a healthy rapport and relationship. Tammara’s goal is for clients to utilize their inner strength and knowledge to foster their healing and growth.
