About Tammy
Tammy Piazza is a licensed mental health counselor based in New York who helps people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and addiction-related issues. She focuses on practical skills to reduce overwhelm and improve day-to-day functioning. Tammy aims to create a calm, straightforward environment where people can start from whatever feels manageable.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and work with strong emotions. Tammy also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to shape sessions around each person's priorities.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy inform the concrete tools she teaches for coping and mood regulation. Tammy has seven years of experience working with people who face overlapping mental health and substance use challenges. Much of her work addresses anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma and post-traumatic stress, and the strain that grief or caregiving can bring.
She also helps with sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, and symptoms of ADHD. In sessions, Tammy focuses on teaching coping skills, self-soothing techniques, and clearer communication strategies. She tailors interventions to fit the person's pace and needs rather than following a rigid plan.
Practical homework and simple skill practice are commonly part of her approach. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Tammy works with people who want to move past trauma, reduce substance-related harm, or build steady daily routines and emotional balance.

Online support
How Tammy’s approaches work online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people notice and name strong emotions and then use that awareness to shift patterns that cause pain. This approach can be useful for processing trauma responses, grief, and intense anxiety by focusing on what emotions are signaling.Client-Centered Therapy centers sessions on the person’s own concerns and goals, with the therapist following the person’s lead. It supports people who need a gentle, accepting space to sort through life changes, parenting strain, or questions about life purpose.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy offers concrete strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for panic attacks, mood disorders, and insomnia. DBT adds skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance when feelings become overwhelming.
Tammy works collaboratively to find the best fit. She will discuss what feels most important, try approaches that match those goals, and adjust based on what helps. Choosing a method is part of the work rather than a fixed decision up front.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for skill coaching and emotional work. Phone sessions reduce bandwidth demands and can be a simpler check-in. Live chat or text messaging can support short check-ins, coaching between sessions, and practice of new skills throughout the week.
