Background and approach
Tamar uses several practical approaches to guide sessions. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to challenge unhelpful thoughts. She also uses acceptance and commitment ideas to help people clarify values and take small steps toward them.
When relationship strain is present, she brings in emotionally-focused and Gottman-informed strategies to improve communication and connection. These methods focus on listening, understanding hurt, and rebuilding trust in everyday interactions. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
Tamar has eight years of professional experience as an LMFT and works with individual adults who want clear, practical support. She invites people to share what matters most and to try tools between sessions that reinforce progress.
Approaches to anxiety and relationship work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without fighting them and then choosing actions that fit a person's values. It can help when anxiety or stress gets in the way of daily life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and reduce avoidance. This approach is useful for social anxiety, phobias, and depressive thinking.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tamar will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them over time based on how the client responds.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging supports short check-ins or ongoing reflection between appointments. This mix makes it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, family, and daily life.
