More about Tamara
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 25 years of experience in behavioral health. As a therapist, I have helped adolescents and young adults with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, academic/work struggles, and other developmental concerns. I have advanced training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing. I earned my Master’s Degree from the Indiana University School of Social Work and earned a graduate certificate degree in Mind, Brain, and Teaching from Johns Hopkins University. My therapy style is strengths-based, engaging, and very supportive. We all have potential to change, are resilient, and possess the ability to live the life we want to live.
When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family, hiking on a nature trail, digging in the garden, meditating on my deck, walking the dog, or being silly on stage at Whole World Improv Theatre as an apprentice cast member here in Atlanta!

About online counseling

- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
