About Tammera

Tammera Carbo is a licensed clinical mental health counselor with more than 30 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, anger, depression, ADHD, addictions, and a range of relationship and family concerns. Her style is straightforward and practical, focused on helping people make changes that matter in daily life.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients see how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and to test new ways of responding. Narrative Therapy is used to look at the stories people tell about themselves and to rewrite limiting themes. Solution-Focused Therapy helps set clear goals and build small steps toward them.

Carbo has worked across inpatient, residential, outpatient, and school settings. That variety informs a flexible approach that aims for clear, practical strategies alongside deeper reflection. She can integrate Biblical counseling into sessions when a client requests that perspective.

Sessions emphasize real-world problem solving. People can expect a mix of talking through current difficulties, learning coping tools, and trying behavioral experiments between meetings. The goal is to reduce overwhelm and increase manageable progress.

Her practice is based in North Carolina and she brings decades of clinical experience to common life challenges like parenting strain, career transitions, forgiveness, guilt, and compassion fatigue. She aims to help people find steadier footing and clearer next steps.

Approaches used in online sessions and how they help

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the client's goals; it helps people feel heard and guides them to their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills for changing unhelpful patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, anger, and ADHD-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is usually a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest approaches to try. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan over time so the work stays relevant and useful.

Confirm the specific session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice new skills in their everyday routines and bring real situations into sessions for discussion. Licensed professionals can adapt Client-Centered and CBT methods to online care to keep sessions focused on clear goals and practical change.
