About Tammy

Tammy Mayer is an LPC with seven years of clinical experience in settings that have included residential programs, outpatient care, in-home services, and school-based work.

Background and approach

She chose counseling after witnessing her community's response to an F-5 tornado and seeing how trauma went unspoken; that experience motivated her to return to school, earn her degree, and pursue licensure to better support people in crisis. Tammy practices in Oklahoma and holds licensure in both Oklahoma and Texas as reflected in her credentials.

Her approach blends practical skills training with relational sensitivity, drawing on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment-informed techniques, DBT strategies, mindfulness, and solution-focused interventions. Tammy emphasizes creating a warm, interactive space where clients can build trust and learn how thoughts, emotions, and stressors influence behavior.

She designs personalized interventions and uses methods that engage adolescents and young adults who have not always found traditional therapy helpful. Clients work with her to develop tools for managing anxiety, anger, mood instability, grief, and life transitions while exploring what helps them feel more in control and connected.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Tammy commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and mood instability by teaching practical coping skills. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns and how early relationships shape current emotional responses, which can help with issues like grief, attachment concerns, and difficulties forming trusting connections.

She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when appropriate, teaching techniques for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness to support clients facing intense emotions or impulsivity. Deciding which approaches to use is collaborative; the therapist and client work together to determine which methods fit the client’s goals, preferences, and presenting concerns and then adapt the plan as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing school, work, or family commitments and allow licensed professionals to deliver skills-based interventions and ongoing support in a variety of interactive ways.
