More about Tamara

  • 20 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in New Jersey with 20 years of professional work experience. In addition to being a therapist, I am a certified parenting coach, childcare author, and media expert for shows such as Good Morning America, The Today Show, CBS, and Fox News. I wrote a book called "Secrets of the Nanny Whisperer" which helps parents take their child's developmental needs and match them with an ideal caregiver/daycare. I am passionate about helping others strengthen themselves and their relationship.s I created Therapeutic Parenting Method to help parents understand their children and, ultimately - better communicate with them and advocate for them. I use this formula for the entire familial lifespan for children to aging parents helping logic supersede emotion and chaos, so families can better bond and communicate.

I have experience helping clients with relationship issues, family conflicts, parenting issues, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I believe in being supportive and nonjudgemental to patients so that therapy can make them feel unconditionally accepted and cared for, and it's a positive experience they enjoy. I have worked with families for 20 years and I know the first step of signing up is hard, but I see how many people feel safe and supported as soon as our work together begins. I can't wait to meet you!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
