I offer Telehealth services. I provide a practical approach to therapy that focuses on integrating mind and body connection. I believe the best way to heal is to embrace our uniqueness and live from a place of creativity.

My clients are often seeking a supportive and nonjudgmental space where they can process their experiences, build resilience, and find practical tools for change.

With over 16 years of experience, I take a warm, collaborative, and affirming approach to therapy. I use evidence-based methods like CBT, EMDR, and solution-focused strategies, tailoring each session to your needs and goals. My style is grounded, compassionate, and direct—focused on helping you feel more empowered, emotionally regulated, and connected to yourself and others.

You feel weighted down, blocked, stuck, and numb with all the problems in life. Let's face it - a lot of times you're feeling exhausted, consumed by emotions & just want to get off the rollercoaster of worry, panic, and anxiety. At night, when you're trying to sleep, overthinking sets in, making it difficult to sleep; and when you do sleep, you're still tired, in a bad mood, or dread the day. You just get up, hold it all in, pretend it's okay. But it's not.

If you do share how you're feeling with family and friends, you feel like a burden, that nobody understands or is judging you. So often, you once again put on a smile, push how you're feeling down, tell yourself it's okay, but doesn't last long. The rollercoaster comes around again, emotions twisting and turning every which way, up and over, all around, and back into the same cycles of fear, worry, anxiety, and even frustration that you can't get off this ride so that you can just feel better with more peace and happiness.

I’m glad you found me. I'm Tammy Brooks LMFT. I'm here to help adults find joy again, to get off that rollercoaster of emotions once and for all. I'm here to not only help you feel better but help you make a long lasting change so that you regain control, feel empowered, & free again.

I know that right now, things might feel heavy or uncertain. But I also know that with the right support, life will and can feel lighter, not to mention more hopeful and far more manageable.

Whether providing short-term counseling, coaching clients through transitions, or supporting employees in enhancing their well-being, I am deeply committed to fostering an environment where individuals can address their challenges with understanding and care.

A particular area of focus for me is helping couples strengthen their relationships. I find great fulfillment in guiding them through communication issues, conflicts, and life stressors. I believe strong, healthy relationships are key to overall well-being, and I’m passionate about helping couples build lasting, supportive connections.

I also work with individuals dealing with a range of issues like depression, anxiety, family challenges, and work-related stress, always aiming to help them find balance and self-discovery. Additionally, I have contributed to wellness programs and telehealth services, equipping individuals and leaders with tools to thrive both personally and professionally.

I am dedicated to continuous growth, which is why I’ve pursued additional training in areas like Primary Care Behavioral Health and telehealth technology. This allows me to stay adaptable and ensure the care I provide remains effective and relevant.

In every aspect of my career, I strive to create a safe, open, and understanding space for people to explore their challenges and feel supported on their journey toward wholeness.
