About Tammy

Tammy Curtis is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin who draws on 11 years of clinical experience to help people navigate a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

She focuses on building practical skills alongside clients so they can manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and complex family issues. Tammy blends evidence-informed techniques to guide clients toward clearer goals and more effective coping strategies.

Her practice emphasizes collaboration and strengths, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside motivational and narrative methods to reshape unhelpful patterns and clarify personal stories. Tammy also incorporates solution-focused and trauma-informed strategies when addressing addictions, parenting difficulties, attachment and adoption-related concerns, chronic illness, and other areas that affect daily functioning.

She approaches each case with respect for individual experiences and aims to foster renewed hope during difficult transitions. Sessions accommodate different schedules through video, phone, chat, or text-based messaging, and Tammy works with clients to tailor treatment plans to their needs.

Prospective clients in Wisconsin can expect a pragmatic, empathetic clinician who centers skill-building and momentum toward meaningful change.

Approaches that translate to online care

Tammy commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing into her online practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, client-centered way of exploring ambivalence and strengthening motivation for change, which can be especially helpful for issues like addictions or readiness to adopt new habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tammy works with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She frames treatment as a collaboration, adapting techniques over time based on what helps the client make progress and meet concrete objectives.

Online therapy in her practice is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These formats allow clients to attend sessions from different locations, fit therapy into busy schedules, and use shorter or more frequent contacts when that better supports momentum and skill-building.
