About Tammy
Tammy Piazza is a licensed mental health counselor based in New York who helps people manage anger and related concerns. She keeps sessions straightforward and practical so clients can start using skills quickly. Tammy listens without judgment and focuses on what each person needs right now.
She uses a person-centered way of working, which means the conversation follows what matters most to the client. Tammy also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify the thoughts and habits that feed difficult feelings.
Background and approach
Dialectical Behavior Therapy adds clear skills for handling intense emotions and resolving conflict more calmly. Tammy has seven years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, depression, and mood disorders. She also supports those struggling with grief, sleep problems, parenting strain, and issues such as codependency and communication breakdowns.
Her background includes work with dual diagnosis cases involving substance use alongside mental health conditions. In sessions she teaches coping strategies, grounding and self-soothing techniques, and practical ways to reduce reactivity. Tammy can use eye movement desensitization and reprocessing when trauma memories are part of the picture.
She aims to create a steady, skills-focused process so people feel more in control of their responses. People meet with her by video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Tammy invites clear goals and regular check-ins so progress can be measured and adjusted as needed.

How Tammy’s approaches work in online sessions
Client-centered therapy keeps the focus on the client’s priorities and experience. In online sessions this means Tammy starts where the person is, listens closely, and builds the plan around their goals and comfort level. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify thought patterns and behaviors that fuel anger and anxiety, then practices new responses during and between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers clear skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication when feelings run high.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Tammy will discuss what feels most useful and may combine methods over time. Together the client and therapist set goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy makes regular work easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is low or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief coaching, skill reminders, and ongoing support between sessions. These formats give flexibility while keeping the focus on practical skill building and emotional coping.
