Tami is absolutely awesome. Ive always struggled with finding a therapist that I really connected with. not only does she make you feel valid she also tell you like it is when needed. She's going to be the biggest advocate for your mental health and happiness. She does a variety of different things during therapy, and when you feel like some thing isn't working she is more than happy to accommodate and switch things up! I've been working with her for at least almost a year now and by far out of the 13 different psychologists I've been to she is by far my favorite and my go to

Tami is not only an amazing therapist but also a wonderful person. I have been seeing her for years and she has gone above and beyond what I could of ever hoped for or expected. Tami has a natural ability to be empathetic to you while also being able to steer you into a different prospective and solution. Sometimes I just need to talk and be heard and other times I need direction and she always seems to know which one I'm needing. I believe that this flexibility allows me to feel like I'm being guided through the process by a loving, caring human being. I feel that this approach helps in her ability

I transferred here after a horrible experience with another office, and I could not be happier! My appointments always start on time, I have no issues with booking, and I love the patient portal. I can book my own appointments and pay co-pays online which is a huge plus. I have Tricare Standard, so I get a little antsy with co-pays being processed properly, but I haven't had an issue with billing. Because I had to switch therapists mid-way I was nervous about going through it again, but my therapist (Tami) is amazing. She is very personable, friendly and easy to talk to, which helped make the transition

Tami is hands down the best therapist I’ve seen and worked with! She is so easy to talk to and open up to, and makes you feel comfortable enough to be yourself. She has been amazing over the past year and a half that I’ve been seeing her, and always delivers the best advice and answers to my personal situations and development. Highly recommend Tami and LifeCompass Therapy!

Tami is truly wonderful. I've worked with her for several years now and I have grown so much, learned so much about myself and learned how to better care for myself. I spent years and years working with so many therapists and they all failed...something with Tami just clicked. It felt less clinical, more real, more like she cared about my over all well being. I highly recommend Life Compass Therapy and Tami!

I have been doing counseling with Tami for months now and she is so sweet. She is always a wonderful listener and most importantly no matter what, she does not judge you. She admires growth and positivity and she is a wonderful person. I chose her to be my counselor because she is well rounded in many things. You won’t be disappointed with a session with her. Thank you for understanding me, and helping me cope through life!

Tami has been my therapist for almost 2 years now. She is honestly the best therapist I have ever had (and I've had many). She has helped me get through and overcome so much. I wish I had the words to express my appreciation for her and all that she does. As someone who has dealt with mental health issues for most of my life, I know how hard it is to find a therapist that makes you feel comfortable and understood. I highly recommend Tami. I would (and do) refer anyone to her!

Tami is the absolute best! I've had other therapists before who really didn't understand or took the time to understand what I had been through, but Tami does that and goes far beyond it. She doesn't tell you what the answer or resolution is, she encourages you to find it while she is there guiding you with the best practices to make it happen. She is wonderful and definitely puts the time and effort into each session
