About Tama

Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Louisiana with five years of experience, Tama Stears focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, family concerns, and self-esteem. She helps people who are dealing with workplace issues, communication problems, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose. Sessions are conducted in English. Tama’s practice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people make practical changes in day-to-day life.

Her style is direct and collaborative. She works with clients to understand patterns that keep problems repeating. Conversations often cover how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact, and what small steps can reduce distress. She helps people practice clearer communication and repair strained connections.

Many clients bring concerns about mood and self-image. Tama offers straightforward tools to manage anxiety and depressive symptoms, and to build more consistent self-care and self-respect. Work-related stress and interpersonal friction are addressed with problem-solving and skill practice that aim to fit into a person’s real schedule.

She pays attention to guilt, shame, and forgiveness as emotional issues that affect relationships and self-worth. Sessions may include setting goals, trying new communication habits, and reflecting on values and life purpose. Progress is tracked in concrete ways so people can see what changes help.

To begin, Tama asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted at this time.

How evidence-based approaches guide online sessions

Two common evidence-based techniques used in this practice are behavioral activation and skills-based communication work. Behavioral activation focuses on increasing simple, purposeful activities to lift mood and reduce withdrawal. It is useful for people with low motivation or depressive symptoms. Communication skills work looks at specific habits in conversations and teaches practical alternatives for clearer requests and conflict management. This approach helps with relationship strain and workplace friction.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to choose techniques that match current goals, symptoms, and daily life. Together they review what helps and adjust methods over time rather than sticking to a single plan.

The practical benefits of doing therapy remotely include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Because the biography does not list explicit session formats, confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to attend during work breaks or to keep shorter, focused check-ins when needed.
