About Tamra

Tamra Zeller is an LCMHC (Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor) with 21 years of clinical experience based in Utah. She works with relationship and family concerns and with people coping with trauma and abuse, addiction, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and issues around intimacy and attachment.

She focuses on helping people get unstuck by watching patterns, identifying strengths, and testing practical solutions. Tamra uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at how thoughts and beliefs keep problems going. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take meaningful steps forward.

Tamra has significant past work with sex offenders, their families, and victims, and has long experience addressing domestic violence and patterns of extreme emotional abuse. She notes the recognizable cycles in toxic emotional abuse and the need for focused attention on those patterns. She also reminds potential clients that sex offender therapy requires prior completion of any legally mandated program when applicable.

Her style is straightforward and question-friendly. She invites questions about fit and encourages people to talk through what they want to change. Sessions include identifying goals and tracking whether the steps taken are helping.

Outside of work she grows an organic garden, cooks with the harvest, and spends time outdoors skiing, camping, hiking, and kayaking. She also enjoys time with her rescue dog, Blue. Tamra aims to help people find clearer, healthier ways of relating to others and to themselves.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to a person and taking concrete steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and getting unstuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and tests new ways of thinking and behaving to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people notice how those patterns affect current relationships and emotional responses.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and collaboratively decide which methods to try first. Adjustments are expected as work progresses and as different strategies are tested for fit and effectiveness.

The therapist's documented methods inform how sessions proceed, but specific session formats are not detailed here. Confirm current session options before booking so you know whether sessions are video, phone, or another supported format. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can use breaks from work or childcare to attend. Choosing a format can be practical - for example phone calls use less bandwidth and short check-ins can be scheduled more easily.
