Tamara Sinclair, LPC

Tamara Sinclair is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin. She uses clear, practical techniques to help people name the problems they face and take small steps forward. Her approach is warm and person-focused, with an emphasis on practical tools and honest conversation.

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behavior patterns. Client-centered methods guide sessions so the person’s goals lead the work. Mindfulness practices are added when people want simple tools for grounding and managing intense feelings.

Tamara works with a broad range of concerns including anxiety, depression, bipolar mood challenges, and stress from life changes. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strains, caregiving stress, and the impacts of trauma and abuse. Additional focus areas include identity and LGBT concerns, gender dysphoria, HIV/AIDS, and explorations of kink and alternative sex culture.

Her style is interactive and collaborative. Sessions aim to be straightforward - identifying a concern, trying a concrete strategy, and checking what helped. She avoids labels and centers respect, sensitivity, and a person’s own values.

Tamara has five years of clinical experience and holds a Wisconsin LPC credential. She offers sessions in English and meets with people through a range of online formats. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session that fits their needs.

How Tamara’s Approaches Work Online

Tamara often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice thought patterns and try different behaviors. CBT offers simple exercises and homework people can use between sessions to reduce anxiety or shift low mood.

She also works in a client-centered way, which means sessions follow the person’s priorities. The therapist listens closely and helps shape goals that feel meaningful and achievable. Mindfulness techniques are added when people want brief grounding practices to manage strong emotions or stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tamara collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts strategies if something isn’t helpful.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and guided exercises, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports shorter check-ins, and messaging is helpful for quick reflections or ongoing support. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or busy schedules while using the same clinical tools as in-person care.
