About Tammara
Tammara Rood is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in New York with 14 years of clinical experience. She helps people with relationship trouble, family conflict, parenting challenges, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. Her practice also addresses anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and other life changes.
Her approach is straightforward and person-focused. She listens to what matters most and works with clients to set realistic steps. Conversations aim to make daily life easier, for example improving communication at home or managing overwhelming feelings.
Tammara uses several therapy methods that fit different situations. She draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at how past relationships shape current reactions.
Sessions can include skill-based work from dialectical behavior therapy when strong emotions or impulses get in the way. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques are used to help people notice values and commit to small, practical actions. Client-centered elements guide the pace and focus of sessions based on what the person brings.
Clients often come with combined concerns, such as parenting strain plus sleep problems or anxiety with relationship issues. She will help prioritize what to work on first and revisit goals over time. The emphasis is on clear, doable steps rather than long, abstract plans.
How her approaches translate to online work
Tammara commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values, which can reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current behavior and helps people notice and change repeating relationship cycles. Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and day-to-day life. That means trying techniques, reviewing what helps, and adjusting plans as needed so sessions stay practical and relevant. Confirm the exact session formats before booking, since current options are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep momentum between sessions. It also allows for shorter check-ins when needed, and for people to choose whether to be on video or use other supported formats if those are available. These arrangements are discussed and agreed on at the start so sessions fit into everyday routines.Areas of expertise
