About Tamara

Tamara Prickett is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 20 years of clinical experience. She supports people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and LGBT-related concerns. Tamara focuses on practical steps that help people cope with life changes and the everyday strain those changes bring.

She aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions are tailored to each person's needs, with conversation and goals adjusted as progress is made. Tamara pays attention to the practical problems people bring, such as trouble with communication, feelings of isolation, or struggles with body image and self-worth.

Over two decades of work have included helping people facing illness, chronic pain, caregiver stress, and relationship transitions like divorce or separation. She also supports people working through control issues, guilt, shame, and questions about life purpose. The approach is hands-on and focused on everyday coping rather than abstract theory.

Tamara works with people who are dealing with impulse control, money and financial worries, and midlife concerns. She helps clients name patterns related to abandonment and attachment and then try small changes that can shift those patterns. The goal is steady, manageable progress toward clearer choices and less overwhelm.

To begin, prospective clients follow the site's Start Therapy flow and complete a short matching questionnaire. Tamara then schedules sessions based on availability and shapes the plan to fit each person's goals and circumstances.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online work

Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on clear goals and practical skills. One common approach teaches coping skills for managing anxiety and stress, such as breathing exercises, pacing activities, and breaking problems into smaller steps to reduce overwhelm. Another emphasis is on grief and loss work, which helps people name painful feelings, create routines that support healing, and try small behaviors that restore a sense of control.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of therapy. The therapist will work together with each person to decide what methods feel most helpful based on their needs, goals, and preferences. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing sessions during a break from work or between errands. Some formats can be a shorter check-in when schedules are tight, or allow people to join without needing to be on camera. Ask about current options and scheduling to see what fits your routine.
