About Tammy
Tammy Barbati is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania who centers sessions on the person's experience and strengths. She focuses on building confidence, motivation, and practical steps toward career and life goals. Tammy emphasizes listening and a non-judgmental presence to help people start moving forward.
Tammy draws on client-centered work to create an open space for sharing thoughts and feelings. She helps people notice what matters most to them and become more self-aware about choices and patterns.
Background and approach
That awareness then informs small, doable steps toward larger goals. Her approach blends skill-based methods when useful, such as cognitive behavioral strategies for unhelpful thinking and solution-focused planning to set clear next steps. Emotionally-Focused Therapy is part of her toolbox for understanding feelings that come with change and loss.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas are also used to clarify values and commit to actions that matter. Tammy has two decades of professional experience and combines coaching-style support with counseling techniques. She often works on issues like self-esteem, career stress, coping with life changes, addictions, and trauma and abuse.
Tammy also addresses concerns such as avoidance, jealousy, obsessive-compulsive patterns, phobias, seasonal mood changes, workplace issues, and challenges common to young adults. Conversations in sessions are led by the client and guided by shared goals. Tammy encourages starting small so progress feels achievable and builds confidence over time.
She welcomes people ready to take the first step toward clearer direction and better functioning.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches that work well online
Tammy uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people recognize and name the feelings that show up during change, loss, or conflict. This approach focuses on emotions as a way to understand what matters and to guide shifts in behavior. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to clarify values and commit to practical actions that align with those values; it helps when someone wants to move toward goals despite difficult thoughts or feelings.She combines these emotion-focused and values-based methods with a client-centered stance so clients steer the conversation. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - Tammy will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. That shared decision making helps tailor sessions to what actually helps the individual.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video lets you work face to face when visual cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and messaging are useful for quick check-ins, written reflection, or when typing helps someone process thoughts. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into a busy life.
