Associate Counselor
Tamara Thompson- Her/She
Associate Counselor
Bio:
Creating a safe and supportive space for individuals to honor their needs, find their power, and speak their truth is my calling! As a master’s level trained mental health I enjoy building a rapport with clients. With psychodynamic psychotherapy and cognitive behavioral approaches, I assist in finding the pathology of unwanted behaviors then replacing them with healthier more productive choices based on my clients’ therapeutic goals.
​
I have experience with working with diverse groups to include children, adolescents and adults with specific behavioral and emotional disorders including depression, anxiety, eating, and obsessive-compulsive disorders.
As a woman of color, my perspective is unique to a specific group yet my humanistic approach reaches all people in love and individuality.
To add to my uniqueness, my ability to add light humor, quirkiness, with a hint of grace allows clients to self-actualize and have their desired break-through, in their own time.
