Tamara Young

Living with anxiety, PTSD, or the effects of trauma can feel overwhelming, isolating, and exhausting. These challenges can affect your relationships, your work, your confidence, and your ability to enjoy daily life. You may feel caught in cycles of worry, fear, hypervigilance, or painful memories that seem difficult to quiet. Reaching out for support can be one of the hardest steps—but it is also the beginning of healing and lasting change.

My name is Tamara, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in the treatment of anxiety, PTSD, and trauma-related disorders. I work with adults who are struggling with persistent anxiety, the impact of traumatic experiences, relationship difficulties, or longstanding patterns that no longer serve them. My goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you can better understand your experiences, strengthen your resilience, and develop practical skills to move forward with greater confidence and peace.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based treatment, including trauma-informed therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Together, we will work to process difficult experiences, reduce emotional distress, build effective coping strategies, and foster healthier relationships. My hope is to help you regain a sense of stability, reconnect with your strengths, and create a life that feels more balanced, meaningful, and aligned with your values.

My approach to therapy is grounded in compassion, collaboration, and evidence-based care. I believe that understanding your story is an important part of the healing process. Together, we explore how past experiences, relationships, and life events may continue to influence your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and sense of self today.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, respected, and understood. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I work alongside each client at a pace that feels safe while helping them gain insight, develop confidence, and create lasting, meaningful change.

I incorporate therapeutic approaches such as EMDR, Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and a strengths-based framework to support meaningful and lasting change. Together, we work to identify patterns and build on your existing resilience, to develop practical tools to improve emotional regulation and daily functioning.

My goal is to provide a steady, supportive environment where healing can take place at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered as you move toward greater stability and confidence.

I understand how difficult it can be to break free from the grip of anxiety, trauma, and overwhelming experiences. Healing takes time, and it often begins with having a safe place to talk openly and honestly. My approach is rooted in empathy, patience, and respect for where you are in your journey.

In our work together, you can expect a steady and supportive environment where we move at a pace that feels manageable. We will work to better understand the patterns that contribute to your distress, develop practical coping skills, and process difficult experiences in a way that promotes lasting healing. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more confident in your ability to manage stress, and better equipped to handle life’s challenges.
