About Tammi

LCSW Tammi Rider has 30 years of experience in mental health practice in Louisiana. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, trauma and related issues. Sessions draw on client-centered work, cognitive behavioral ideas, existential and Jungian perspectives, and mindfulness practices.

Tammi uses straightforward, practical tools to help people handle everyday problems. She offers concrete suggestions and coping strategies for things like anger, parenting strain, career stress, and recovery from substance use. She also addresses intimacy concerns, eating issues, and questions around identity and LGBT matters.

Her background includes inpatient and outpatient treatment, private practice, school settings, home health, and hospice care. That range informs how she approaches different life stages and problems. She brings decades of hands-on experience with grief, trauma, and behavioral concerns in adolescents.

In sessions she emphasizes getting to know each person as an individual. Conversations focus on what is useful now and on tools people can use between sessions. Tammi blends talk-based work with mindfulness exercises and practical behavior changes.

People who choose her can expect a direct, steady approach that balances insight and action. She encourages clients to set clear goals and practices that support change. To begin, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling details before booking.

How Tammi’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. It helps when someone needs acceptance, clearer personal goals, and a steady therapeutic relationship. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical skills and behavior change. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that cause repeated problems. Mindfulness Therapy uses attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase focus; it can help with stress, anger, and compulsive behaviors.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tammi will collaborate with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they will try techniques and adjust the plan based on what works in real life.

The biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm the current session options before booking. Many people choose remote sessions because they can fit therapy into work breaks, avoid travel time, or pick a quieter time of day. Online work also makes it easier to use written exercises, screen-shared worksheets, and short check-ins when that suits someone's schedule. Discuss format preferences during the matching process so sessions match practical needs and availability.
