Tammy Ricker

My communication style

I will meet you where you are and adjust with you at your pace. If you want to speed things up, we will. If you need to take it slower, we will do that as well. Your time is just as valuable as mine and I hope that will be evident in our connection.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've always had a passion about the family system and all the quirks and perks of long term relationships. Being a marriage and family therapist was a path that chose me after already having started my own family. I enjoyed working through family of origin wounds in my own personal therapy.

My goals for you

Explore the top reason you are seeking therapy now and identify where you would like to go in terms of relationships, mental health, and overall enjoying your life.

Our first session

2-3 minutes of me ensuring that all legal and ethical requirements are reviewed and understood. We will have a little get-to-know-each other beyond what you wrote in the intake paperwork. We will then develop therapy goals, discuss likely timelines, and what approach (es) we will use. We will explore potential barriers as well as strengths.
