About Tamra

Tamra Priestley is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in Utah who helps people struggling with depression, anxiety, relationship problems, and trauma. She focuses on practical skills people can use right away. Tamra writes straightforward guidance and supports clients as they learn new ways to cope and relate.

She brings eight years of clinical experience and a background that includes private practice work and employee assistance services. That work extended to first responders, law enforcement, and older adults facing end-of-life concerns. Tamra also draws on life experience as a single parent and someone touched by adoption, divorce, and caregiving responsibilities.

Sessions emphasize clear, doable steps such as skill practice between meetings. She integrates client-centered listening with approaches that target thoughts, behaviors, and emotions. That mix is used to address depression, anxiety, self-esteem, addictions, grief, and many relationship challenges.

Tamra has supported people who have experienced trauma and abuse and those coping with life changes like divorce, blended family issues, and caregiving stress. She often addresses issues related to body image, eating struggles, and codependency while helping people build motivation and confidence.

Her work also includes coaching-style support for goals around career, parenting, and self-mastery. Tamra encourages collaboration so clients leave with specific tools and homework to keep progress moving between sessions. She practices in Utah and offers services in English.

How Tamra’s Approaches Fit Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaboration, helping people feel heard and understood while they set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches straightforward tools to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, useful for stress, mood struggles, and coping with life changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tamra works with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That decision is collaborative, and she adjusts pacing and focus as clients try techniques and report what helps most.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand, and remove travel time so people can use their available minutes more efficiently. Many people appreciate that sessions can be paired with homework and real-life practice between meetings, which supports steady progress.
