About Tammy
Tammy Piazza is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and mood concerns. She brings seven years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical skills people can use between meetings. Tammy meets clients where they are and begins from that starting point.
Her practice emphasizes clear, useful tools such as coping strategies, self-soothing techniques, and ways to handle intense feelings.
Background and approach
She uses a person-centered style that centers the client's needs and choices. Tammy also draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. When trauma is part of the story, she incorporates eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or EMDR, alongside emotion-focused and dialectical behavior approaches.
These methods are used to help reduce the hold of painful memories and to build emotional skills. Conversations are practical and paced to the client's readiness. Tammy has worked with people facing substance use concerns and co-occurring mood conditions like depression and bipolar disorder.
She also helps with parenting stress, grief, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her background supports addressing both immediate relief and longer-term coping. Sessions are designed to feel collaborative and respectful.
Tammy aims to teach tools that fit daily life and to help people regain a sense of balance and purpose.

How therapeutic approaches work online
Tammy uses client-centered methods that focus on the person's goals and preferences. This approach means the therapist follows the client's lead, listens closely, and helps tailor techniques that fit daily life. It supports work on stress, relationships, and general coping.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and practice small behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. For trauma-related concerns, Tammy incorporates EMDR to address distressing memories and lessen their emotional intensity while building new ways of responding.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Tammy will discuss options and try methods that match the client's needs and comfort level. Sessions are collaborative, with room to adjust pace and focus as goals evolve.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth discussion and skill work, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat works for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines.
