Getting to know Tammy Carson

Hi there, I'm Tammy! I genuinely love helping people help themselves. I enjoy supporting individuals in changing perspectives when needed and stepping out of their comfort zones to make the changes necessary for personal success. My approach I use a holistic perspective with a strengths-based approach. I focus on what the client can do in situations to create positive changes for themselves. I incorporate a psychodynamic approach to understand the client’s history but emphasize a person’s strengths, resources, and capabilities rather than solely focusing on problems or deficits. My focus In psychotherapy sessions, I believe the focus is meeting people where they are in real-time and taking it from there. The goal is to help people understand, identify, perhaps implement, and better manage their daily lives and relationships. I enjoy helping people take control and get the best out of life for themselves and their future. My communication style I tend to be very direct—with love. I believe the truth sets us free in many ways. I am delicate and aware of others’ needs and will meet you where you are with your perception and narrative. My journey to mental healthcare I have always been interested in helping others and worked in many helping roles—case manager, shelter provider, assisting the homeless, working in detox, psychiatric units, and more—before realizing how I could best help others: by being a clinical social worker. As an adult, I attended a Christian college for my undergraduate social work degree and then earned my Master’s in Social Work at Simmons University in Boston. My goals for you I keep meeting clients where they are and what they need at the time of each session. We will set goals together with your lead and discuss them each session—how you feel, how you are doing, what can be done differently, what is working, and what is not.
