Tamara Bransburg

I enjoy working with adolescents & adults who have felt alone, disconnected, and/or like they don’t belong; who have chronically found themselves in relationships that don’t feel supportive and/or reciprocal & are seeking ways to shift their ways of relating and connecting; and who are experiencing chronic depression and/or anxiety & struggle with self-love. I am passionate about exploring the ways peoples’ multiple, intersecting identities impact their mental health and well-being, and developing strategies for coping with stressors related to experiences of oppression. I work from a Relational Psychodynamic approach wherein I believe the clinical relationship is the primary mode of healing. I have extensive experience working with people navigating complex trauma, severe anxiety and depression (including self-harm), substance use issues, attachment-related difficulties, the impacts of community violence, & incarceration. My approach is warm, thoughtful, and curious. Considering the impacts of individual and structural oppression on the Self and our communities is a fundamental part of my values and reflected in the way I work. I look forward to being a partner on your journey towards healing and liberation!
