About Tambgra

Tambgra "Tam" Broadaway helps parents and families looking for clearer communication and calmer days at home. She is a licensed professional counselor with LPCC and LPC credentials. Tam writes and talks plainly in sessions so people can use what they learn right away.

Her style is steady and practical, aimed at reducing stress and improving relationships. Tam draws on 16 years of clinical experience to address stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and family challenges.

Background and approach

She also works with issues such as grief, trauma and abuse, intimacy problems, and LGBTQ concerns. Parents often seek her help for communication breakdowns, caregiver stress, and navigating divorce or separation. In sessions she connects the mind, body, and spirit to help people notice patterns that no longer serve them.

She helps clients identify triggers, try new ways of responding, and build on their existing strengths. Therapy is collaborative - goals and strategies are set together. Her methods include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy.

These approaches are used to teach practical skills like managing panic, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and repairing relationship bonds. Tam is based in North Carolina and works with individuals and families who want straightforward support for everyday struggles. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.

Practical tools and clearer relationships are central to her work.

Therapeutic approaches for online family and relationship work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It teaches values-based actions so clients can move toward what matters, even when emotions are strong. This approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them against real-life evidence. It teaches practical skills for managing panic, depression, and everyday worries through behavior change and problem solving. Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will work together with each person or family to choose methods that match their goals, preferences, and life situation. Sessions may combine elements from different approaches as needs change. Online sessions offer flexibility for busy families. Video calls can recreate face-to-face conversation, while phone, live chat, and text-based messaging provide shorter or more frequent check-ins. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, school, and caregiving responsibilities, and to continue progress from home.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
