More about Tamolyn
- 18 years' experience
- Female
- Psychologist
I have a Masters degree in Counseling and hold a current License with the Minnesota Board of Psychology.
My approach in working with people is to try to help them understand how thoughts, behaviors and emotions interact and to look for ways to re-think the situation, create new behaviors, and to improve their emotional state to allow for better coping mechanisms.
I like to work together to define the issues and establish goals toward resolving them.
Along the way we would keep checking in about the difficult emotions that may come up during the process and look for ways to deal with them.
I also like to help people look for ways that they can use what is being learned here to help when other life issues arise (as they always do!).

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Tamolyn has been awesome! She went above and beyond in helping me.
Tamolyn has offered a lot of advice to me in ways that I could change things in my life to help make things easier. I was struggling internally and it was starting to show externally to the point where I couldn't really deal with it alone anymore. Tamolyn has been an important key in helping me overcome some of the anxiety and stress I've been dealing with and has been easy to talk to. I appreciate the texting platform greatly since my life is so busy as it is. She has offered helpful resources as well as advice and I appreciate that too.
Tomolyn is great! She responds quickly and knows a lot. She listens and provides support. Thank you for helping me out!
Tamolyn makes me feel heard, respected and a priority. She is so easy to talk to and comes to each session with prompts to help conversation flow. I love that she sends session notes and is accessible beyond our video calls. She makes a real effort to provide valuable resources.
