Dr.Tamar Boyd

As a Doctor of Psychology, I'm honored to teach my clients how to be their own therapist. I work with my clients to acknowledge and understand the patterns of mind-body union (thinking, feeling, behaving patterns) that may be causing stagnation and pain. I teach clients the self-governance skills necessary to discipline the nervous system, manage thinking and feeling patterns, and direct behavioral outcomes to align with a desired / ideal version of self. The transformative nature of this work is evident in one's felt and lived daily experience. I utilize the framework of wholistic and positive psychology to introduce clients to the felt / lived experience of self-regulated tolerance and ease, the foundational skill necessary for living life well. Applying our work to real life, clients learn to discipline their inner experience toward that of tolerance and ease while interacting with the world. The relationship I share with my clients is collaborative as we shine a light on the roadmap to optimal psychological, emotional, and spiritual well being. I consider my practice to be a space where clients discover the means to their own self-governance, and harness the felt/ lived experience of their desired self - a real game changer. Credentials & Experience: I have studied psychology for 30 years, and practiced within the field 20 of those 30 years. Aside from private practice, where I meet with women and couples, I have also taught at the University of Alaska and directed medical staff at a wholistic / integrative health clinic.
