About Tara
Tara Trammell is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in South Carolina. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Her style is warm and interactive and she aims to create a respectful space where people feel heard.
With 17 years of experience, Tara draws on practical approaches that help people cope with everyday struggles. She commonly uses client-centered work, cognitive-behavioral tools, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques.
Background and approach
These methods are used to address problems like relationship strain, grief, low self-esteem, trauma, and ADHD-related challenges. Tara spent many years working with the South Carolina Department of Mental Health, which shaped her direct, supportive practice. She tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs rather than using one-size-fits-all solutions.
Sessions focus on clear steps and workable strategies people can try between meetings. Clients can expect a collaborative process that balances practical skill-building with space to tell their story. Tara emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion while avoiding stigmatizing labels.
She helps people identify small changes that lead to better coping and clearer decision making. Outside of work she is a wife, mother, and soon-to-be grandmother, which informs her perspective on family life and caregiving stress. If someone is ready to take a first step toward feeling better, she offers steady support and guidance for that path.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience without judgment. It helps people feel accepted while they sort out what matters and decide on next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches practical skills to change reactions and behavior, which can be useful for anger, anxiety, and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy encourages simple present-moment practices that reduce reactivity and help people notice triggers before they act.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try strategies and adjust the plan until it fits the person’s life and needs.
Online sessions give flexibility for busy schedules and different circumstances. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can support quick coping reminders, brief check-ins, or ongoing contact between longer sessions. These options make it easier to use therapy around work, family, and daily routines.
