About Tamara Mason
Are you stressed out and overwhelmed with life? She has been an individual, marriage and family therapist for over 25 years. We can work together so that you can live a fulfilling and balanced life.
Parenting is one of the hardest jobs you will ever love. It is especially challenging when you are divorced or never married to the other parent of your children. I started Parenting 2 Home Kids to give parents information and support in raising kids whose parents do not live in the same home.
If you feel stuck in a joyless rut or anxiety and panic has you feeling trapped, life does not have to be that way. Together we can change that and your life can be full of joy and purpose. I became a psychotherapist, because I wanted people to know that it is possible to change how you feel. It is possible to change your thinking and ultimately change your life.
It is wonderful to walk with someone in the transformation from overwhelmed with little hope to a life of joy and purpose. One of my favorite moments is when I see the sparkle return to someone’s eye.
Tamara works with people who are anxious, depressed, have dysfunctional eating or relationship issues. Relationship issues include issues with your spouse or partner, children you are raising or adult children and parents.
