Tamara Rigsby

Hello! My name is Tamara and I’m an intern with Chicago Therapy and Wellness. I am currently pursuing my Master of Social Work at the University of Illinois and am in my final year of the program. I am passionate about helping clients process and remedy trauma, enabling them to reclaim their lives. I strive to help clients grow closer to the version of themselves they aspire to be. My therapeutic approach is dependent upon the client’s intentions and goals, as I recognize each individual has a unique journey. Generally, I enjoy using techniques such as mindfulness, CBT, and strengths-based training within sessions.

My special areas of interest include OCD, anxiety, and interpersonal relationships. My philosophy of care is to empower each client to take initiative over their lives with renewed confidence, using the skills, tools, and knowledge from therapeutic practice. I look forward to talking to you and hearing your story!

If you are interested in scheduling a session or consultation, please note that the best way to contact me is through my email. For uninsured clients seeking therapy with an intern at Chicago Therapy and Wellness, the price of therapy ranges from $5-40.
