About Tammara
Tammara Sand is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker and an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker practicing in Florida with 10 years of experience. She works with adults who are coping with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and related challenges. Her caseload has included people dealing with ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and eating and sleeping difficulties.
She focuses on clear, direct conversations about what is causing distress. Sessions look at patterns that drain energy, such as people-pleasing, trouble saying no, or staying in caretaking roles. Tammara helps people notice what keeps them stuck and what small changes could protect their time and priorities.
Her approach blends Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, EMDR, and mindfulness practices. That mix means sessions can include talk-based exploration, practical skill-building, emotion-focused work, trauma processing when needed, and mindfulness exercises. She adapts techniques to the person in front of her rather than using a single method for everyone.
Tammara has worked across clinical settings and with a wide range of concerns connected to family of origin, abandonment, codependency, chronic illness, and coping with life changes. People often focus on improving boundaries, reducing anxiety, managing mood swings, or recovering from difficult relationships.
To begin, she asks straightforward questions about current struggles and daily routines. The first meetings usually clarify immediate goals and set simple steps to try between sessions. Those first steps help decide which therapeutic tools to use next.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the person. Online sessions using this approach let someone talk through daily struggles, relationship patterns, and priorities while the therapist mirrors concerns and helps clarify goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions CBT is used to teach practical skills - such as spotting unhelpful thinking, testing assumptions, and trying small behavioral experiments between meetings. This approach helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating-related patterns.
EMDR is an approach used when people bring trauma or strong emotional memories. In an online setting it involves structured processing steps combined with focused attention and grounding practices to reduce the intensity of distressing memories.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That choice can change as therapy progresses, with different tools used at different stages.
Please confirm the specific session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - for example shorter check-ins during a lunch break, avoiding travel time, or choosing a session type that does not require being on camera. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and emotion-focused work to a remote setting so therapy can continue when in-person meetings are not feasible.
