About Tamra

Tamra Zeller is a licensed clinical mental health counselor (LCMHC) who helps people facing anger, relationship strain, trauma, and a wide range of life stresses. She frames therapy as a practical way to get unstuck and learn clearer ways of relating to others and to oneself. Tamra invites questions so prospective clients can judge whether she is a good fit before starting work together.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior, to help people spot unhelpful patterns and try new responses. She also brings Acceptance and Commitment Therapy into sessions to support values-driven action and emotional tolerance during difficult changes. Tamra emphasizes building trust and mutual respect as the foundation for useful therapy.

Much of her career has involved work related to sex offenders, victims, and domestic violence, and she has considerable experience with extreme emotional abuse and its recurring cycles. She notes that people seeking sex offender therapy must first complete any legally required program before pursuing additional counseling.

Tamra draws on 21 years of clinical experience to assist with parenting concerns, addiction and recovery challenges, grief, mood disorders such as depression and bipolar, ADHD, intimacy and attachment issues, and problems like codependency and communication struggles. She helps clients identify strengths and practical next steps they can try between sessions.

Outside of work she grows an organic garden, cooks with homegrown produce, and spends time outdoors skiing, camping, hiking, and kayaking with her rescue dog, Blue. She looks forward to meeting people ready to explore healthier, more authentic ways of connecting with themselves and others.

How Tamra’s approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take actions that align with those values even when emotions are difficult. It is often useful for anger, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing out new behaviors to change how people feel and act. This method can help with mood issues, sleeping problems, and patterns that keep people stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and can be useful for intimacy and communication concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tamra will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She explains options, invites questions, and adjusts techniques as therapy progresses so the plan fits the client’s life.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling around work and family demands, fewer travel needs, and the ability to fit brief check-ins into a busy day. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current options before booking so you know what is offered. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to carry forward the same ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work they would do in person, helping clients practice new skills between meetings and apply changes in daily life.
