Getting to know Tammy Ricker

Hi there, I'm Tammy! My goal is to offer a safe and supportive space where you can fully express your feelings and take steps toward personal growth. My focus Feeling anxious or just over it? Does it seem like you are just stuck in survival mode? You are in the right place. Together we can get to the root of what is keeping you stuck and develop a healthier, more present you. My approach I specialize in identifying patterns in relationships and helping you utilize your own strengths you already have to achieve your mental health goals. I have several years of helping Clients become mindful of their emotional piggy banks and learning how to keep them full for life's unexpected emotional withdrawals. My communication style I will meet you where you are and adjust with you at your pace. If you want to speed things up, we will. If you need to take it slower, we will do that as well. Your time is just as valuable as mine and I hope that will be evident in our connection. My journey to mental healthcare I've always had a passion about the family system and all the quirks and perks of long term relationships. Being a marriage and family therapist was a path that chose me after already having started my own family. I enjoyed working through family of origin wounds in my own personal therapy. My goals for you Explore the top reason you are seeking therapy now and identify where you would like to go in terms of relationships, mental health, and overall enjoying your life. Our first session 2-3 minutes of me ensuring that all legal and ethical requirements are reviewed and understood. We will have a little get-to-know-each other beyond what you wrote in the intake paperwork. We will then develop therapy goals, discuss likely timelines, and what approach (es) we will use. We will explore potential barriers as well as strengths.
