Tamilyn Fillmore, LCSW

My love for helping lift others has been life-long. I have been involved in community change efforts on many levels, in the realm of policy work and in the non profit sphere. My focus has been to ensure that all voices are heard and all life experiences respected. After over a decade of working on larger-scale social issues, I have shifted my focus to working with the individual to help them discover their worth, their inner strength, and the power of their own voice.

My therapy approach is based in a deep belief that we all have what we need inside of us to heal and thrive. As a therapist, I simply act as a guide as you find your own truths. I strive to show complete respect for each individual’s journey, and to help clear out the effects of messaging that we are “broken” or not enough.

My passions are to guide the process of healing self, relationships, and trauma (acute and complex) through a strengths-based, growth-oriented lens. I am EMDR certified, and trained in IFS, EFT, ACT, and Gottman Levels 1 and 2. I primarily use Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness and Differentiation modalities as a foundation. I then use IFS/EMDR to gently address trauma. My goal is to strengthen your sense of self and confidence while increasing peace and radical acceptance in your life. I would love to work with you to build resilience and walk alongside you in your journey to joy.
