About Tammy
Tammy Person is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She greets clients with empathy and straightforward support. She aims to help people find practical ways to improve daily life and relationships.
Tammy creates a calm space for honest conversation. She listens for what matters most and helps clients sort priorities. Her work focuses on making changes that fit real life, not just theory.
Background and approach
Her sessions mix cognitive behavioral methods with client-centered listening and acceptance-focused ideas. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try new actions, and clarify personal values. She also draws on mindfulness and narrative techniques when useful.
Tammy has supported people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, trauma, and sexual intimacy concerns. She also addresses family and parenting challenges, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and body image problems. Additional areas include aging and caregiver stress, blended family issues, and relationship communication problems.
In session she offers tools, feedback, and space to practice new skills. She works directly with clients to set goals and track progress. Sessions aim to leave people feeling more able to handle tough moments and move toward what matters to them.
How Tammy's approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, committed steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and solve problems. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, depression, and anger concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship where the therapist listens and reflects so the client can find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Tammy will discuss options, try techniques together, and adjust based on what feels most helpful. The focus stays on the client's goals, preferences, and everyday realities so the plan fits their life.
Online formats - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. These options allow people to access regular support from home or while traveling, keep continuity across life changes, and use brief check-ins or longer sessions as needed.
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.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
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.
