I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and Board Certified in Neurofeedback. She offers psychotherapy services in her practice Wings of Change located in Naples, FL. I bring more than 20 years’ experience to my practice. Due to COVID-19 I am offering my services through telehealth. Please visit Wings of Change website: www.wings-of-change.com Going to a strange office (even virtually!) and talking about your most personal issues with someone you’ve never met, can be a difficult, sensitive task. I appreciate that people experience problems and challenges in their life. My approach with clients is to work to help them feel comfortable, respected and hopeful about their situation. Depending upon the problem or challenge, I utilize best practice strategies to help clients find solutions to their problems and build a path to success. That may take the form of cognitive behavioral therapy, play therapy, structured sensory trauma focused therapy, relational therapy, and learning strategies to overcome overwhelming emotions.

I like challenging situations. My style of counseling is very eclectic, depends on the client and their unique set of problems. This can range from client centered, solution oriented or cognitive behavioral as many people are coming to therapy to learn new ways of thinking and alternative coping strategies. given some of the events of the past year, many people are experiencing additional stressors, particularly the LGBTQ community and am very interested in providing services to this population. I am looking forward to learning along with you.

My name is Tami and I am licensed in Florida with 12 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, LGBTQAI+-related issues, & relationship issues, and so mush more. In my vast experience of working in a facility and private practice, there are few issues that come to me now, that I haven't seen and counseled before. I worked at an addiction facility for approximately 3 years, doing evaluations in the jail, to get people out of jail and into treatment where they belonged. Because I believe no one should be in jail for an addiction issue. I do free counseling for combat veterans through a program called Give An Hour. I am probably not your traditional counselor, in the sense that I don't only use a single approach or a particular counseling theory, I use a more eclectic view, wherein, I gear the approach to each client individually, meeting them where they are in their life. Experience has taught me that each and every client I have had the honor of working with, is an individual and there is no cookie cutter approach that works for everyone. So after I meet each client for the first time, I decide what approach will work best for them. I am of the theory of treating a person holistically because people aren't just a condition or disorder they have, they are a person independent of whatever issues they are experiencing. I work with my clients to create an open, honest, and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change, in order to become the best version of yourself. My job is to offer you the tools you need and help you gain confidence in yourself to make the changes that you want to see and be able to move forward without the need of a counselor in the future. I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you.
