About Tamara

Tamara Prickett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Georgia with 20 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and LGBT concerns. She also supports those adjusting to big life changes. Tamara aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Her approach is practical and person-centered. Conversations are tailored to each individual's needs and goals. She listens for what matters most to the client and shapes the plan around those priorities. Sessions focus on clear steps people can try between meetings.

Tamara draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address mood concerns, worry, and grief. She works with issues such as attachment and abandonment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and communication challenges. She can also help with control issues, impulsivity, isolation, and questions about life purpose.

People who come for support may be facing divorce or separation, financial strain, midlife transitions, or problems linked to guilt and shame. Tamara offers a straightforward style that aims to make therapy accessible and useful. She encourages people to take small, manageable steps toward feeling better.

If you decide to begin, expect a collaborative process that updates as your needs change. Tamara asks about what works for you and adjusts the focus as progress is made.

How evidence-based approaches fit into online therapy

Many therapists use evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide work on anxiety, depression, grief, and life changes. For example, brief structured strategies focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing small behavior changes to reduce worry and lift mood. These techniques help with day-to-day symptoms and give concrete skills to practice between meetings.

Another common approach uses supportive, exploratory conversation to process loss and identity concerns. This style helps people make sense of what changed and to find new routines or meaning after a loss or major life transition. It can be especially useful when someone is coping with grief, adjustment, or questions about life purpose.

Finding the right approach is often part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose and adjust techniques based on your goals, preferences, and how you respond. Together you can try methods and shift direction when needed so the work stays practical and relevant.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow follow-up check-ins that keep momentum between appointments. It also lets people continue care through life transitions when changing routines would otherwise interrupt progress.
