Working with Tamara through BetterHelp has given me a space to slow down, reflect, and talk openly about what’s going on in my life. She listens with care and helps me see things from a different perspective, especially as I work on understanding myself and communicating better with the people I love.
Over the past year, we’ve built a connection that feels deeper than the usual therapist-client rapport. I genuinely feel that Tamara cares about my well-being, and that trust has made it easier for me to be open and do the work. She just “gets me” and I’m grateful for her support. 🙏🏾

Tamara's listening skills are incredible! It feels as if she is truly hearing what I am saying to her. Her responses are insightful, honest, and warm, never cliche'. She's obviously very experienced, yet very much in the present. We've only had a couple of sessions so far, but I feel like Tamara's already helped me to disentangle many emotional knots!

Tamara was absolutely incredible -- I was dealing with things that made no sense to me and I was genuinely embarrassed to talk about them, but she was so patient and thoughtful as I developed an understanding of them. She made me feel comfortable and after dealing with discomfort for a few years I cant explain what that meant to me. I really appreciated how she gave me a nice mix of small tangible things to do daily as well as some bigger, more thought provoking concepts to think about. I will forever be thankful for Tamara!

My therapist was really great I always ended my video sessions with even if I was in a tumultuous state before I got into therapy I found myself always being in a more relieved relaxed kind of state whenever my video session was over. I liked how caring and considerate she was of my emotions and of the things that I told her she was always very understanding with those things. I was able to feel like I could trust the person I was talking to and I could basically say whatever I wanted to say since it is a therapist and I was paying to be listened to. And again I always felt like I could say anything and whatever I said it would be understood and I would be cared for with what I was saying.

Tamara has helped me a lot and put me at ease in the process.
She has guided me really well and taught me about many things, the most notable are cognitive distortions and the cognitive behavioural model. Understanding what these are and what they mean has been invaluable to set me on the path of a more calm and better me.
Thanks for everything Tamara.
