Tammy Greer is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people navigate anxiety, stress, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. She writes in a direct, calm way and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable for busy parents. Tammy practices in California and offers sessions in English.

With 19 years of experience, Tammy focuses on practical tools that can be used between sessions. She often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. She also uses client-centered methods to listen closely and tailor conversations to each person's needs.

Tammy pays special attention to attachment and family themes. She helps people untangle issues that come from adoption, foster care, abandonment, or family of origin wounds. Topics such as communication problems, divorce and separation, and parenting stress are common focuses in her work.

Sessions typically involve clear goals and step-by-step strategies. Tammy mixes short-term solution-focused steps with deeper conversations about how past experiences shape current relationships. She also supports people working through attention-related challenges like ADHD while keeping goals realistic and concrete.

Her approach is straightforward and compassionate. Tammy encourages clients to set small, achievable changes and checks in about progress. She invites people to begin by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a slot that fits their calendar.

How Tammy’s approaches translate to online therapy

Tammy often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, stress, and attention-related challenges by breaking problems into small, changeable steps.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps with communication problems, relationship strain, and issues tied to adoption or foster care by connecting past experiences to present behavior.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tammy will discuss goals and preferences with each person and combine methods that fit their needs. Together they set clear targets and revise the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different routines and comfort levels. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, and school schedules while keeping the focus on practical change and steady progress.
