Tamara Marshall, M.S., RPA

Therapist | Young Adults & Adults

Adolescents • Addiction • Self-Esteem • Trauma

I’m passionate about helping people heal, build healthier relationships, and strengthen the relationship they have with themselves. I work with young adults and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, depression, grief, trauma, intimacy concerns, relationship challenges, and major life transitions.

My approach is collaborative, person-centered, and solution-focused. Together, we’ll look at what you’re experiencing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop an approach that reflects your individual needs, relationships, and goals.

You Might Be a Good Fit If...

  • Anxiety or overthinking is taking up too much space in everyday life

  • OCD or intrusive thoughts are interfering with how you want to live

  • You and your partner are struggling with communication, intimacy, or connection

  • Trauma or difficult experiences continue to affect your relationships or emotional well-being

  • You’re grieving a loss or adjusting to a major change

  • Depression is making it difficult to feel motivated or connected

  • You’re navigating a career, relationship, or other significant life transition

  • You want therapy that balances deeper exploration with practical ways to move forward

My Approach

My therapeutic approach may incorporate:

Person-Centered Therapy
Solution-Focused Therapy
Evidence-Based Interventions
Trauma-Informed Care
Couples & Relationship Therapy
Strengths-Based Support

The specific approach we use will depend on your individual needs, experiences, and goals.

I believe one of the most important relationships you’ll ever have is the relationship you have with yourself. Therapy can be a place to better understand that relationship while also exploring how your experiences, emotions, and patterns influence the way you connect with others.

My approach is collaborative and personalized. I don’t believe there is one way therapy should look for everyone. Together, we can identify what feels most helpful, build on your strengths, and use evidence-based strategies that support your individual goals.

Whether you’re navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, grief, depression, intimacy concerns, or a major transition, my goal is to create a space where you can better understand yourself and make meaningful changes that fit your life.

How I Can Help

Anxiety & OCD

Anxiety and OCD can make it difficult to feel settled, trust yourself, or stay present in everyday life. Worry, intrusive thoughts, uncertainty, and familiar patterns may begin taking up more time and energy than you want them to.

Together, we can better understand what’s contributing to what you’re experiencing, identify patterns that may be reinforcing distress, and develop practical ways to respond differently.

Couples, Intimacy & Relationships

Healthy relationships require more than simply avoiding conflict. Communication, trust, intimacy, expectations, boundaries, and the way we relate to ourselves can all influence how connected we feel to the people closest to us.

I work with individuals and couples who want to better understand their relationship patterns, strengthen communication, navigate intimacy concerns, and build relationships that feel healthier and more connected.

Trauma, PTSD & Grief

Trauma and loss can affect the way you experience yourself, relationships, safety, and the world around you. Sometimes those experiences continue to show up through emotions, reactions, avoidance, or patterns that are difficult to understand.

Therapy can provide space to process what happened, make meaning of what you’ve experienced, and move forward without minimizing the impact it has had on your life.

Depression & Life Transitions

Depression and major life changes can leave you feeling disconnected, uncertain, or unsure about what comes next. Transitions in career, relationships, identity, family, or other areas of life can also challenge the way you understand yourself.

Together, we can explore what’s changing, identify what matters most to you, and develop realistic steps toward greater clarity, confidence, and connection.
