About Tammy
Dr. Tammy Freeman is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 21 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the challenges that come with life changes. Her work also addresses parenting questions, addiction and recovery struggles, trauma and abuse, and issues connected to adoption and foster care.
She began her career as an elementary school teacher and later moved into behavioral health. That path gave her a wide view of systems and people across ages and settings. She has worked in hospitals, non-profit agencies, and private practice, which informs how she supports clients today.
Her approach is practical and person-focused. Sessions emphasize listening and understanding first, then building manageable steps to change. She draws on client-centered methods to hear each person’s goals and uses solution-focused and cognitive behavioral techniques to test strategies that actually help. Psychodynamic ideas are used when looking at longer patterns that affect current behavior.
Dr. Freeman aims to create a calm space where a person can breathe, reflect, and try new ways of coping. She invites clients to define what happiness means to them and to take small, steady steps toward that vision. Her tone is direct, compassionate, and hopeful.
She works from New Jersey and provides services in English. People who want to start can use the site’s Start Therapy flow to match and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.
How different approaches guide online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on active listening and understanding a person’s goals. It helps people feel heard and shapes sessions around what matters most to them, which can be helpful for stress, life changes, and parenting concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and behaviors. It uses straightforward exercises and small experiments to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and address addictive patterns. This method often suits people who want clear tools to practice between sessions.
Psychodynamic therapy pays attention to longer patterns and past influences that shape current choices. It can be useful when someone wants to understand recurring relationship issues or deeper emotional responses.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That process is collaborative and can change as work progresses.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people try different ways of working without changing their daily routines.
