   About Tammy

   Tammy Bonnici is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who offers a steady, practical place to talk through difficult life moments. She invites people to bring issues like anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, and relationship or work stress into sessions and explores those concerns with openness and honesty. Tammy emphasizes meeting each person where they are in the moment and tailoring work to individual needs.

   She trained at the University of Colorado in Colorado Springs where she earned a Master’s in Community Counseling. Over 14 years she has worked with a wide range of concerns, including trauma from mental and physical abuse, anger management, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to identity and intimacy. Her background includes addiction-focused work and support for people facing HIV / AIDS-related issues.

   Tammy draws on cognitive behavioral ideas alongside client-centered and mindfulness approaches. She uses Motivational Interviewing as a conversational style to help people clarify what matters to them and to find practical next steps. Sessions are collaborative and focused on concrete goals like managing stress, improving communication, or reducing substance use.

   Her manner is compassionate and non-judgmental while remaining straightforward. Tammy aims to help people build new life experiences and to strengthen skills that work outside of sessions. She encourages prospective clients to consider what they want to change and to start with small, achievable steps.

   When someone is ready to begin, Tammy supports them through a matching and scheduling process so work can start at a pace that fits their life.

2. Therapeutic approaches and how they translate to online work

   Tammy commonly uses Motivational Interviewing to support people who want to make a change. This approach focuses on asking the right questions, listening carefully, and helping someone find their own reasons for change rather than pushing a plan on them. Client-Centered Therapy is another influence in her work and centers on creating an accepting space where a person’s own goals guide the process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replaces them with practical strategies for everyday life.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Tammy will collaborate with each person to figure out which mix of ideas and activities fits their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions so they focus on what matters most to the individual and adjusts methods as work progresses.
   
   The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many people find it simpler to try therapeutic techniques between sessions when work fits into their routine, and therapists can use conversational styles like Motivational Interviewing and CBT tools effectively in remote sessions.
