About Tammy

Tammy Quarles is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Mississippi who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, ADHD concerns, career shifts, and other life transitions.

Background and approach

Drawing on 23 years of experience, she centers therapy on each person's strengths and helps clients build practical skills to manage obstacles that interfere with well-being. Her background supports work with issues such as self-esteem, grief, parenting challenges, anger, compassion fatigue, and relationship or family stresses.

In sessions she emphasizes collaboration and empathy, inviting clients to bring their own knowledge of their lives while offering tools and perspectives from client-centered, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused approaches. Tammy aims to create an environment where clients can explore feelings, clarify goals, and develop actionable steps toward change.

She values the courage it takes to begin therapy and guides people toward greater resilience, clearer priorities, and improved coping as they navigate personal and professional growth.

Approaches That Translate to Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on the client's perspective and values, offering a supportive space where the therapist reflects and helps clarify goals; this approach is helpful for people seeking validation, self-exploration, and clearer direction. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention skills that can reduce stress and anxiety and support better emotional regulation in daily life. Motivational interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented method that helps people resolve ambivalence and find internal motivation for change, which can be useful for career shifts, health behaviors, or managing ADHD-related habits.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist will work collaboratively with clients to determine what methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences. Sessions often begin with an assessment of what the client hopes to achieve, followed by adjustments to techniques and pacing as progress is made.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging provides practical flexibility for fitting sessions into busy lives and for maintaining momentum between meetings. These formats make it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations and let clients choose the communication style that best supports their engagement and consistency.
