About Tammy
Tammy Curtis is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people navigate stressful and painful moments. She focuses on practical skills for handling anger, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and parenting challenges. Tammy writes simply and listens closely to what matters most to each person.
She brings 11 years of counseling experience in Wisconsin to the work. In sessions she combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Narrative Therapy and solution-focused ideas. That mix is used to identify patterns, reframe difficult stories, and build small, doable changes that add up.
Background and approach
Tammy often helps people manage grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, and the strain that comes with caregiving or career change. She also supports those facing adoption and foster care questions, blended family dynamics, attachment issues, and first responder stress. Her practice attends to both immediate coping needs and longer-term shifts in thinking and behavior.
Her approach is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions usually focus on what a person wants to change, steps they can take between sessions, and ways to measure progress. Tammy emphasizes strength-based perspectives so clients can use their existing resources while learning new skills.
People who choose her often want direct tools they can try right away. Tammy prefers clear goals, short-term strategies when helpful, and deeper work when the situation calls for it. She aims to help people leave sessions with tangible steps and a clearer sense of direction.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Tammy uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, anger, depression, and situations where small changes in thinking can change how someone feels and acts.She also draws on Narrative Therapy to examine the stories people tell about themselves. That approach helps reframe painful experiences and makes room for different outcomes in relationships, parenting, or work. Solution-Focused Therapy is used alongside these methods to set clear, short-term goals and build practical steps toward them.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Tammy will work with each person to pick methods that match their goals, history, and comfort level. Together they review what is working and adjust the plan as needed so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful when more face-to-face interaction is wanted, phone sessions use less bandwidth, live chat can be a quick check-in, and text messaging supports brief updates or continued reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and to keep momentum between meetings.
