Hi, I'm Tamara!

I am a woman of many expressions. I’m a therapist, writer, dancer, traveler, healer, researcher, businesswoman, and a vessel. My life is rooted in my faith and guided by The Most High God. I move through the world with softness, intuition, and strength. My love for people runs deep and God put a purpose in my heart to heal soul wounds. I believe in the sacred work of restoration and in the quiet ways healing unfolds when we truly feel safe, heard, loved, and connected.

licensed therapist & coach

My approach is very unique: combining holistic methods of healing, ancient wisdom, modern evidenced-based psychotherapy practices, life coaching, personal insight, and compassion.

I was born and raised in Michigan, United States of America. I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Social Work from Western Michigan University in 2015 and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Master of Social Work from Michigan State University in 2016. I hold a Clinical Trauma Professional Certification and am completing a Medicinal Plants certification with Cornell University.

In 2024, Tamara founded her private practice Slay Therapy & Consulting in Honolulu, Hawai’i which was awarded with state funding and maintains 5-star reviews from clients.
