The Soul Goals, Episode 48: Tammy

Being a skilled psychotherapist, Tammy has been witness to many people’s obstacles and hardships.  But along the way, Tammy ignored her own needs in order to help others heal first.  She recalls feeling disconnected and isolated in her own skin as a teenager, beginning patterns of addictive coping mechanisms while still operating as a functioning  individual.

Healing her own life became paramount when Tammy realized that treating others while still wrapped in her own addictions had to end.  This is when the hard work began and Tammy dove in to follow through on her promise to herself that she was meant for more than what she was experiencing in her daily pain.

Tammy’s conviction led her to a place of peace as she left her traditional counseling position for a more holistic-minded way of treatment.  She holds space for others to heal as she facilitates retreats that focus on writing, creating art, and being in your own skin among multiple other modalities.  Her belief that “it’s happening whether we are aware of it or not” is a foundational piece that helps to empower as she works to her clients uncover the best parts of themselves that deserve love, forgiveness, and personal healing.

Tammy has written two books on her own personal recovery and vulnerably shares her path for others to connect with.  Her retreats are second-to-none and involve multiple holistic means for balancing and creating space and ease in life through meditation, movement, art, astrology, dreamwork, and group talk and support.  Tammy’s gift of a generous spirit and her empathic nature are refreshing and nurturing to a population that so desperately needs unconditional support.  She is moving souls with her work!

Everyone has a story, and every story matters!
