Tamara O’Shea, MAT, LAMFT

Many of us struggle with a persistent, self-critical voice that tells us we’re not good enough. This inner dialogue can trap us in a cycle of negative beliefs, holding us back from reaching our true potential and leaving us feeling stuck, anxious, or even depressed.

Maybe you’re burdened by a deep-rooted sense of shame, which colors how you see yourself and your place in the world. This can make it difficult to move forward, embrace who you truly are, and find peace in your everyday life. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, or trauma, there is hope-and you don’t have to face these struggles alone.

I’m Tamara, an art therapist based in New Jersey, and and I’m here to help you break free from that critical voice and the weight of shame that holds you back. With a compassionate yet direct approach, I’ll work alongside you to uncover and build upon your strengths, helping you to rewrite the narrative you’ve been telling yourself.

Through art therapy or traditional counseling, we’ll explore the challenges that keep you stuck. My goal is to help you heal and find fulfillment, using a therapeutic approach tailored to your unique needs- whether you are dealing with anxiety, depression, or emotional trauma.

With a Master's in Marriage and Family from Liberty University, an MAT in Art Therapy from New York University, and certification in PREPARE/ENRICH Premarital and Marriage Counseling, I bring a blend of professional expertise and creative insight into our sessions. Together we’ll work toward finding freedom, peace, and renewed self-worth.

You don’t have to stay stuck in the past. Let’s work together to silence that critical voice and help you enter a future filled with possibility and peace.
