About Tammy
Tammy Mayer is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Oklahoma with seven years of experience in the mental health field. She has supported people after crises and through tough life transitions. Her background includes work in residential programs, outpatient settings, in-home care, and school-based services.
Tammy speaks English and brings a calm, down-to-earth presence to sessions. Tammy's path into counseling began after witnessing her community cope with an F-5 tornado.
Background and approach
Seeing people who could not name or talk about their trauma led her back to school to study counseling and pursue licensure. That experience shaped her focus on helping people process trauma, loss, and sudden change. In sessions she uses clear, practical methods to help people manage anxiety, stress, mood swings, anger, and grief.
Tammy draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to break unhelpful thought patterns and from mindfulness to teach simple breathing and grounding skills. She also uses attachment-based ideas to build safer relationships and solution-focused steps to set small, achievable goals. Her style is warm, interactive, and respectful.
Tammy emphasizes building trust so people feel comfortable talking about hard things. She adapts interventions to fit the needs and learning style of each person, aiming to make therapy active and engaging. Tammy offers several online session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.
Sessions operate through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling is arranged after completing a short matching questionnaire.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Tammy uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often focuses on practical exercises and homework that can reduce anxiety and lift mood. She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for intense feelings or impulsivity.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tammy collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and how they prefer to learn. She adapts pace and tools so therapy feels manageable and relevant to everyday life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for in-depth conversations and skill work that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging allow for quick check-ins, brief coping reminders, and ongoing support between longer sessions.
