Hi there, I’m Tammy, known to many as Mama T. I’m a wife, a mother to four beautiful children, and a woman who is always stumbling, growing, learning, and trying again. I am loud, a little messy, big-hearted, and endlessly hopeful. I love people. I love seeing them rise. And I believe deeply in walking beside others through the hard things.

For over a decade, I’ve been supporting families, youth, and parents through the complexities of mental health, emotional overwhelm, and the tender, messy realities of being human. My journey began in my own home, navigating mental health challenges with my daughter and discovering, painfully and beautifully, that parents need support just as much as the kids we’re trying to help. I learned that when we grow, our families grow. When we heal, our homes soften. And when we learn new tools, our children gain access to them too.

That experience led me to become:

  • A Certified Meditation Teacher
  • A Certified Peer Support Worker & Peer Support Instructor
  • Trained in teaching children anxiety and grounding tools
  • A Mental Health Advocate & Parent Supporter
  • A Public Speaker on the masks we wear, mental health challenges, grief, compassion, and healing
  • An Author of books that help children, parents, and grieving hearts
  • A Medium and Spiritual Messenger, offering love, hope, and connection from Spirit

Every part of my work, whether it’s writing the Bella Series of books to help children understand worry and take back some control, speaking to youth about the masks they feel pressured to wear, guiding parents through emotional storms, writing poetry for people grieving, or sitting with Spirit in a mediumship reading—all of it comes from two things:

Lived experience and genuine heart.

I don’t share from a pedestal.
I share from the floor I’ve had to get up from many times.
I share from the storms I’ve survived and the tools I’ve learned.
I share from a place of compassion, humility, and fierce love.

My life, my training, and my spiritual connection have all woven themselves into one purpose:
to help people feel understood, supported, safe, and never alone.

If you are a parent facing big emotions, have a child who worries, someone living with grief, or a soul seeking connection and hope—I am here to walk with you.

This journey is messy, confusing, beautiful, and sacred.
You don’t have to walk it by yourself.

Tammy
