About Tammy
Tammy Quarles is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Mississippi who focuses on practical help for work and life stresses. She helps people who are overwhelmed by anxiety, career questions, parenting strain, or big life changes. Tammy emphasizes strengths and works alongside clients to find clear steps forward.
With 23 years of experience, Tammy centers sessions on the person in front of her. She listens with empathy and asks questions that clarify what matters most to the client. Together they map small goals and realistic next steps to reduce stress and build confidence.
Tammy uses client-centered methods to keep the pace and focus aligned with each person's needs. She weaves mindfulness practices to ground anxious moments and uses solution-focused techniques to find what works now. Motivational interviewing helps when people feel stuck or unsure about change.
In practice this looks like straightforward conversation, experiments between sessions, and tracking progress over time. Tammy helps people identify patterns that get in the way, try alternative behaviors, and name personal strengths they can rely on. She also supports those dealing with grief, compassion fatigue, body image concerns, and postpartum challenges.
Clients often come for help with relationships, anger, money worries, or life purpose questions. Tammy aims to make therapy useful and manageable, so people can return to daily life with clearer choices and less overwhelm.
How Tammy’s approaches fit into online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead. The therapist offers empathy and reflections so the person feels heard and can explore options at their own pace. This helps when someone needs space to sort through career decisions, parenting stress, or life changes.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple practices to notice thoughts and calm the body. Short grounding exercises and breathing techniques can reduce panic and steady attention, which is useful for anxiety, panic attacks, and overwhelm.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tammy will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, energy, and daily demands. Together they try techniques, watch what helps, and adjust the plan over time so progress feels practical and achievable.
If you prefer online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently available before booking. Many people appreciate virtual sessions because they can fit appointments into a workday, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Online work also makes it easier to practice mindfulness in the moment and to bring real-life concerns directly into the session for immediate problem solving.
