About Tamie
Tamie O'Neil is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship strain, parenting concerns, ADHD, addictions, and related mood or behavior issues. Tamie also notes a focus on blended family issues and caregiver stress.
She uses a client-centered style that begins with listening to what matters most to the individual. Tamie helps people name realistic goals and then breaks those goals into manageable steps. Sessions tend to be practical and action-oriented rather than abstract.
Tamie combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with solution-focused techniques and mindfulness strategies. That mix is applied to everyday problems like sleep disruption, panic attacks, low self-esteem, anger, and difficulty adjusting to life changes. She aims to help people develop clearer patterns of thinking and steadier coping skills.
Her background includes work as a crisis counselor where she helped people with suicidal thoughts access basic needs, safety planning, and short-term coping strategies. That experience informs how she manages high-stress situations and urgent concerns in regular sessions.
People who choose Tamie can expect sessions that focus on practical steps, skills practice, and regular review of progress. She encourages collaboration on goal setting and adjusts methods based on how a person responds. The emphasis is on building skills that carry into daily life and relationships.
How Tamie uses practical approaches online
Client-centered work focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It means starting with the individual’s current concerns and priorities, then deciding together what to work on. This approach helps when stepparenting, co-parenting, or merging household routines because the goals come from the client’s immediate needs.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, panic, low mood, sleep problems, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy trains simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus during stressful family interactions.
Choosing the right methods is part of the process. Tamie will work collaboratively to match approaches to a person’s goals and preferences, adapting techniques if something isn’t working. That means reviewing progress and switching or blending strategies as needed.
