More about Tamara
- 20 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am licensed in New Jersey with 20 years of professional work experience. In addition to being a therapist, I am a certified parenting coach, childcare author, and media expert for shows such as Good Morning America, The Today Show, CBS, and Fox News. I wrote a book called "Secrets of the Nanny Whisperer" which helps parents take their child's developmental needs and match them with an ideal caregiver/daycare. I am passionate about helping others strengthen themselves and their relationship.s I created Therapeutic Parenting Method to help parents understand their children and, ultimately - better communicate with them and advocate for them. I use this formula for the entire familial lifespan for children to aging parents helping logic supersede emotion and chaos, so families can better bond and communicate.
I have experience helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe in being supportive and nonjudgemental to patients so that therapy can make them feel unconditionally accepted and cared for, and it's a positive experience they enjoy. I have worked with families for 20 years and I know the first step of signing up is hard, but I see how many people feel safe and supported as soon as our work together begins. I can't wait to meet you!

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.
