Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Tamolyn commonly uses client-centered therapy, a collaborative approach that focuses on understanding each person’s experience and building a trusting relationship. In this style she listens closely, reflects the client’s concerns, and supports clients as they identify their own goals and solutions for issues like family conflict, caregiving stress, or feelings of emptiness.
She also integrates cognitive behavioral therapy - CBT - which helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT is practical and skills-focused, often useful for addressing anxiety, depression, stress management, and coping with life transitions by teaching tools to reframe thinking and change responses.
Finding the right approach is part of the work and is done collaboratively. Tamolyn will help assess a client’s needs, goals, and preferences and recommend strategies that fit those priorities. Together the therapist and client adjust methods over time to find what works best.
Online therapy with Tamolyn can be provided through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options offer flexibility for scheduling, make ongoing care more accessible across busy routines, and allow clients to engage in therapy from different locations while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can support progress and practical change.
