About Tammera

Tammera Carbo brings more than three decades of clinical experience to her work and focuses on helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, grief, depression, anger, addiction concerns, ADHD, and relationship or family difficulties.

Background and approach

She practices from North Carolina and draws on a long history of work in inpatient, residential, outpatient, and school settings, which informs a pragmatic approach to common life challenges like parenting, career transitions, intimacy concerns, and coping with major change.

Her style emphasizes understanding how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact to shape mood and choices, and she relies heavily on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a central tool. Tammera also blends client-centered principles, narrative perspectives, and solution-focused techniques to tailor care to each person’s circumstances and goals.

She holds licensure as an LCMHC and an LMHC and frames counseling as a collaborative process aimed at practical skills, clearer thinking, and gradual improvement in daily functioning.

Combining Practical Approaches with Online Access

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the individual’s experience and emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration to help people explore their concerns and identify their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and emphasizes skill-building and practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe and make sense of their life stories, separating problems from identity to create new possibilities and improve relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and this therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best. Together they assess needs, preferences, and goals and may combine elements from different approaches so the work reflects the client’s priorities and circumstances.

Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to enhance flexibility and access. These options allow scheduling that fits work or family commitments and make it easier to maintain momentum between appointments while using the approaches described above to practice skills and address daily challenges.
