About Tamberly

Tamberly Mott is a licensed marriage and family therapist who supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including relationship and family tensions, LGBT-related matters, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, stress, sleep difficulties, anger, self-esteem issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and career-related struggles.

Background and approach

She also works with coaching needs and compassion fatigue and addresses additional areas such as abandonment, attachment, blended family dynamics, chronic illness and pain, body image, eating issues, and family of origin difficulties. Her practice emphasizes practical help for coping with life changes and rebuilding intimacy and stability.

With 16 years of clinical experience as an LMFT in California, Tamberly blends client-centered listening with evidence-informed strategies. She draws on Internal Family Systems to explore internal parts, mindfulness practices to increase present-moment awareness, motivational interviewing to support change, narrative and solution-focused tools to reframe problems, and other collaborative methods to tailor treatment.

Sessions aim to be warm and nonjudgmental, offering space to explore feelings and develop concrete steps toward goals. Tamberly frames therapy as a partnership, helping clients find strengths and make sustainable shifts in their lives.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Internal Family Systems helps people notice and relate to the different parts of themselves - for example a protective part that avoids vulnerability and a wounded part that holds pain - which can be useful for addressing trauma, internal conflict, grief, and patterns that affect relationships. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on empathetic listening and the clients experience, providing a respectful space to explore emotions and values while promoting self-directed growth. Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce reactivity and manage stress, sleep problems, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm.

Deciding on the right approach is a collaborative process. Tamberly works with each person to identify what methods resonate and to adjust tools over time based on goals, preferences, and practical needs so therapy stays relevant and useful.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy lives and to maintain continuity during transitions. These formats allow licensed professionals to use IFS, mindfulness, and client-centered techniques in ways that suit each clients pace and communication style, supporting steady progress from wherever the client is located.
