About Tammy

Tammy Chatfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience helping people through stressful and painful life moments. She practices in Oregon and focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Tammy listens closely and helps clients name what feels overwhelming so they can begin to move forward.

She guides people dealing with anxiety, stress, grief, and low self-esteem. Career questions and big life changes are also common topics in sessions.

Background and approach

Tammy pays attention to how early relationships shape current reactions, and she works with issues such as attachment, abandonment, and control concerns. In sessions she blends narrative-based work with client-focused and problem-solving methods. That means clients tell their stories, look for patterns that no longer serve them, and then try different ways of responding.

Cognitive strategies are used when helpful to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Tammy recognizes that guilt, shame, and the need for forgiveness can block progress. She offers a steady presence while people test new perspectives and rebuild self-worth.

The goal is clearer purpose, healthier coping, and more confidence in everyday choices. People who reach out usually want straightforward guidance and a therapist who values both practical change and personal meaning. Tammy supports those seeking direction in work, relationships, and identity as they work toward steady, manageable change.

How narrative and practical therapies work online

Tammy often uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe their life stories. In this approach clients tell the events that matter, look for recurring themes, and experiment with new meanings. It works well for issues tied to identity, life purpose, and patterns that keep repeating.

She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. This work helps people recognize triggers, improve self-soothing, and form steadier responses to stress. Client-Centered Therapy is part of her style too, offering a calm, listening-focused space where clients set the pace and priorities.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapy process. Tammy collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean trying an idea for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more accessible. Video works well for deeper conversations, phone can fit a busy schedule or lower bandwidth, and messaging is useful for short check-ins or ongoing support. These options let people fit therapy into work days, parenting routines, or different time zones while working with licensed professionals.
