About Tammy

Tammy Greer is a California-licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who brings 19 years of experience to work with people experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, and parenting concerns. She emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore difficult feelings and improve communication patterns.

Background and approach

Tammy’s background includes attention to issues such as ADHD, attachment wounds, adoption and foster care dynamics, and trauma-related concerns like post-traumatic stress. Her style blends practical problem solving with empathy; Tammy uses tools drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy along with attachment-based and client-centered perspectives to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts, strengthen relationships, and build healthier coping strategies.

She also integrates solution-focused techniques to set clear goals and track progress. Tammy encourages clients to recognize the courage it takes to begin therapy and collaborates with them to shape a plan that fits their needs and values.

Tammy works with adults on matters related to family of origin, divorce and separation, communication problems, and self-love. She communicates in English and practices in California as LCSW 22816, offering a thoughtful, experienced approach to support lasting personal growth.

Therapeutic approaches and online flexibility



Tammy uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical coping skills for anxiety and stress. Attachment-based therapy is also part of her work to explore relationship dynamics and early bonding experiences that influence current communication and emotional responses. She complements these approaches with client-centered principles, offering empathetic listening and collaborative goal-setting to ensure the work reflects each person's priorities.

Deciding on the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Tammy treats that choice as collaborative. She will discuss options, try techniques together, and adapt methods based on the client's goals, preferences, and progress so treatment feels tailored rather than prescriptive.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and maintain continuity of care. These formats can support ongoing skill practice, timely check-ins, and steady momentum toward goals while allowing clients to engage from locations that work best for them.
