Tamara Wright
LISW-CP
About Tamara
I am a LISW-CP in South Carolina with over 8 years of experience as a social worker. I work with individuals who are experiencing anxiety, stress, relationship issues, self-esteem, confidence, and depression. Offering a space grounded in curiosity, compassion, and genuine connection. I strive to create a space where you can show up fully as yourself. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or emotionally exhausted, you will be met with empathy, respect, and understanding. At the same time, I am not a passive listener. I engage actively in our sessions by asking thoughtful questions, offering reflections, and helping you make connections between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Using a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and a strengths-based approach, I gently challenge unhelpful patterns while also highlighting the resilience and strengths you may not always recognize in yourself. My goal is to help you gain clarity, not confusion, to feel supported and empowered.
You can expect a collaborative and conversational experience where your voice matters. I will meet you where you are, while also helping you move toward where you want to be. Therapy with me is a balance of validation and growth—offering both a safe place to land and a space to build new insight, confidence, and direction.
I look forward to speaking with you.
