Dr. Tandrea Elmore

Therapist

Virtual • Montgomery, AL


Hello, I’m Dr. Tandrea Elmore, and I am honored to support you as you begin or continue your counseling journey. I believe that seeking help is a courageous step, and I am committed to providing a compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can work toward healing and personal growth. I have over 20 years of experience in working with children and families, but I have been a licensed counselor for almost 8 years.

I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Auburn University, a Master of Science in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Community Agency Counseling from Troy University, and a Doctor of Education from Northcentral University. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor (LPC-S), National Certified Counselor (NCC), Certified School Counselor, and Certified Vocational Forensic Evaluator. These credentials, combined with my experience, allow me to provide comprehensive, evidence-based care tailored to each client's unique needs.

My mission is to help individuals achieve greater mental and emotional wellness. As a dedicated therapist, I am passionate about promoting both mental and physical well-being and empowering clients to navigate life's challenges with confidence and resilience. I believe it is okay to not be okay—but you do not have to stay there.

My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, life transitions, and overall mental and emotional wellness. I look forward to partnering with you on your journey toward healing, balance, and a healthier, more fulfilling life.

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Fort Payne, AL


I provide experiential-based counseling services for all ages. It is important to me that you have an experience in therapy that is uniquely yours. Standard talk therapy is not for everyone and that is why I offer other options that you may find more therapeutic and beneficial. During your intake consultation, I will help you choose a path that will best meet your needs.

Therapist

Virtual • Alabama


For 30 years, I've been in the room with people who were tired of the same cycles — anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in grief, or strained in their closest relationships — and wanted something to actually change. I'm an LPC licensed in Alabama offering telehealth sessions, and I work with individuals, families, and adolescents on a wide range of life challenges. What you'll get with me is straightforward: an experienced counselor who is direct without being cold, solution-focused without being dismissive of what you've been through, and genuinely invested in helping you build tools that last.
