Tammara Sand

Tammara Sand is a licensed clinical social worker based in Florida. She holds both an LMSW - Licensed Master Social Worker - and an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and brings ten years of experience in mental health care. She tends to work with people facing depression, anxiety, ADHD, grief, trauma, and related concerns in straightforward, empathetic sessions.

Her style is practical and compassionate. She focuses on what is happening now and what can change. In sessions she listens closely, helps people name their priorities, and collaborates on steps that feel doable. Parents and caregivers often value her clear explanations and steady presence.

Clinically, she draws from client-centered therapy to keep the person’s experience central. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify patterns of thought and behavior that get in the way. For people who have experienced trauma, she incorporates elements of EMDR and emotionally-focused work when appropriate.

Tammara also brings mindfulness practices into many sessions to help with stress, sleep, and emotional regulation. She supports people dealing with addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, anger, and chronic health challenges. Her approach aims to be flexible to each person’s needs and pace.

Her background includes work with eating and sleep issues, parenting strain, compassion fatigue, and life transitions such as divorce and loss. People looking for a clear, steady clinician who explains options in plain language may find her approach helpful.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. It’s about building trust, reflecting what someone says, and shaping goals together to make therapy feel relevant and manageable.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It offers practical exercises and experiments to change unhelpful thinking and improve mood, sleep, and daily routines.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, addresses traumatic memories by combining focused recall with guided attention techniques. It can help reduce the intensity of distressing memories and the reactions they trigger.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on goals, history, and what feels comfortable for the client. Decisions are made together so the plan matches needs and pace.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm available formats when you book since the biography does not list them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on a work lunch break or during a quiet moment at home. Different approaches translate well to remote work, and a therapist can recommend exercises and homework that suit an online setting.
