About Tamara
Tamara Taylor is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and issues with self-esteem. She also works with people dealing with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, career questions, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related matters. Tamara speaks English and supports adults aged 18 and older.
Tamara listens first and asks questions that help people tell their story. She takes a practical, down-to-earth approach and aims to help clients find small, usable steps forward. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on building tools that fit everyday life.
Her practice mixes several therapy styles. She draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify goals and find their own motivation. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused ideas to support coping and change.
With 18 years of experience, Tamara emphasizes a holistic view of mind and body. She describes her role as both supportive and coaching when practical skills are needed. People can expect a nonjudgmental space and straightforward suggestions for managing symptoms and life transitions.
Tamara’s work includes a range of additional focuses such as aging and geriatric issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, body image, caregiver stress, fertility concerns, multicultural issues, panic attacks, and non-monogamous relationship dynamics. She aims to help people move toward clearer goals and healthier routines.

How Tamara’s approaches guide online work
Motivational Interviewing is a conversational method that helps people find their own reasons to change. It focuses on listening, reflecting, and supporting a person’s personal goals rather than pushing solutions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them and to take actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and offers practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns and build new habits.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most useful. That choice is based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences and can change over time as work progresses.
The therapist’s profile does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed. It also lets people use mindfulness exercises, behavioral plans, and coaching tools in their everyday context so skill practice can happen between meetings. -
