About

As a therapist, I accept people with no judgment. I have anxiety, so I know what that feels like. I've learned skills to cope with it, and now I can talk about it. We all have our issues, and we're all together in this. ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) is a skill you can learn. It's not just talking; it's a tool you can carry with you when you leave. (I know you don’t want to stay in therapy forever.) Beyond OCD, my professional experience includes helping people with substance abuse and co-occurring trauma and depression.

    Tamara is really getting to the root of my OCD and nobody has ever done that with me. I feel so comfortable telling her things that I have never told anybody before. She gives me a safe space to feel what I need to feel.

    Tammy is the best therapist I’ve ever had! I’ve been working with her for a little over a year and it has transformed me into someone who is confident, self-assured, happy, and unburdened. Tammy has supported me through some of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do, but she gave me a safe, stable environment to do them in. I’m so grateful to her for giving me a life I never could have dreamed of for myself when I was that little 7-year-old girl getting diagnosed with OCD. Thank you, Tammy, and thank you, NOCD!!!

    As the title says, Ms Tamara was the first professional to actually take time to listen to me without passing judgment or trying to shove unnecessary medication down my throat. That in it's self was worth more to me than anyone could possibly imagine. This not only validated my gut feeling that I wasn't going crazy or that something was seriously wrong with me but actually got me started on my path to feeling like my old self. I couldn't be more grateful to NOCD and especially Ms Tamara for helping me out this much.

    Tammy is the best! She is the perfect partner and guide in my journey of recovering from OCD. She knows when to push me to work harder and when to pull back and explain things to me so I understand the steps I need to take. She is kind and a good listener.

    Tammy is amazing! She’s the perfect partner, teacher, and friend when it comes to handling my OCD symptoms. She’s also personable, kind, and honest. I always leave a session with Tammy feeling better about myself and more empowered as a person than I did before. I’ve never had a better therapist.

    I've only had one session with Tammy so far, but even during that first session, she was extremely helpful and kind. She gave me some really good things to think about, and helped me realize that I'm definitely not alone in this struggle! I look forward to continuing to work with Tammy and I'm excited to see the progress that I experience with her as my therapist. :)

    As always, I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Tammy Fagan!! I was having a bad day today because I haven’t been feeling well, but Tammy wouldn’t let me give up on myself for even a moment. We did my ERP together, and it made my whole day better because she helped me accomplish something I didn’t think I would be able to do. Thank you, Tammy! Thank you, NOCD!

    Tamara has been amazing with my son who is 11 years old. It is difficult for him to open up and talk and Tamara was able to get him to that point in a short time. He feels very comfortable and at ease with her. She is so patient and kind.
