More about Tamara
- 11 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Social Worker licensed in Virginia with over 10 years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including: anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges. I specialize in working with POC and persons within the LGBTQ+ communities. My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines ACT, psychodynamic, and motivational interviewing. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Gave goals the I mastered, set goals for each session. Had encouragement when progress was made.
Tamara has changed my life and I can’t thank her enough for everything she has helped me through. I am finally growing into the better me I’ve always wanted and will continue to work with her to make sure I stay here and only go up from here. The matching process on Better Help nailed it when matching her with me, she’s the therapist I needed.
Tamara has a very light friendly energy that makes it so comfortable for me to confide in her. Through speaking with her, I can tell that she truly understands by the insight that she gives. She asks very powerful questions that leave me delightfully pondering, that helps me to give myself grace. She is also very encouraging and I leave the sessions feeling relieved and positive. Thank you Tamara!
Good suggestion. Good empathy Really like her
