About Tammara
Tammara Rood is a New York licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of professional experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, parenting challenges, self-esteem, and anger. Her work also covers trauma, grief, addiction concerns, sleep problems, and mood disorders.
Rood focuses on straightforward conversations about what is happening now. She invites clients to name the behaviors and patterns that cause the most trouble. Sessions are practical and talk-based, with attention to how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact in daily life.
She uses several evidence-informed approaches to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is part of her work for addressing unhelpful thinking and changing behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take actions that align with those values.
Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are available for learning emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Client-Centered Therapy informs the way she listens and responds so people can lead the pace and focus of their work.
Practical problem solving is part of what she offers for parenting, communication problems, and blended family issues. She also helps with caregiver stress, codependency patterns, and managing work-related strain. To start, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the practice portal.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches are used online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people name what matters most to them and then practice small actions that align with those values. It is useful for anger that comes from feeling stuck or conflicted about choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers concrete exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, and reactive anger. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relationship patterns and how earlier bonds influence current responses, which can be helpful for couples issues and recurring trust or intimacy struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will discuss goals, test different techniques, and set short practical steps together. She aims to be collaborative so the client helps choose which methods fit their situation and daily life.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Many clients use virtual sessions to practice skills in the context of real life and then bring observations back to the therapist for adjustments.
