Therapy in Sausalito, CA | Tamara Pancoe, LMFT
Sausalito’s calm waterfront and beautiful surroundings can make emotional struggles feel even more isolating. You may wonder why you still feel anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected despite living in such a peaceful place. Therapy here invites you to slow down, explore what’s happening beneath the surface, and regain a sense of internal steadiness. I support women in Sausalito who want to feel more present, grounded, and emotionally regulated.
How it works
Setting the Foundation
This step helps us create a supportive framework that reflects your needs and intentions.
Building Awareness and Understanding
Together, we will explore where certain reactions come from and begin to understand what has been keeping you stuck.
Creating Change and Cultivating Growth
As therapy progresses, we will focus on developing practical tools and new ways of responding that align with your goals.

Therapy for Woman
LEARN MOREWhen you’ve been carrying a lot in silence, therapy offers a place to breathe. Here, we explore the emotional load you’ve taken on and the expectations that have shaped how you move through the world. Through our work, you begin finding relief, clarity, and space to simply be.
Anxiety Therapy
LEARN MOREWhen anxiety becomes a familiar part of your days it can feel like your mind never fully rests. Therapy helps you understand what is fueling that constant tension and gives you space to work through it at a gentle pace. We look at the experiences and beliefs that contribute to your anxiety and help you form healthier ways of responding. This brings more ease into your life and softens the intensity of your emotional load.
Stress Therapy
LEARN MOREIf you’re navigating relationship stress, emotional distance, or internal pressure to hold everything together, you’re not alone. Relationship counseling helps you understand your patterns with curiosity instead of self-criticism. Through this work, you gain tools to express your needs, strengthen connection, and create more balance in your closest relationships.
Relationship Counseling
LEARN MOREIf you’ve been living in “go mode” for too long, your body may feel tense, your mind scattered, and your emotions unpredictable. Stress therapy helps you unwind the patterns keeping you stuck in survival mode and rebuild a more balanced, compassionate way of moving through your days.
Life Transitions Counseling
LEARN MORESome transitions feel like stepping into the unknown, even when they’re meant to be positive. You may question yourself, your choices, or the pace of your life. Life transitions counseling offers the space to slow down, process the emotional impact of change, and feel more grounded as you move forward.
Postpartum Anxiety and Depression Therapy
LEARN MOREPostpartum anxiety and depression often show up through persistent worry, difficulty resting, numbness, irritability, or a sense of losing yourself. Therapy offers a calm, attuned space to understand why these feelings are emerging and how to care for yourself through them. Together, we explore your emotional landscape, support your nervous system, and help you reconnect with your intuition and identity. Healing doesn’t require perfection, just the willingness to be supported as you move toward steadiness.
Pregnancy Therapy
LEARN MOREPregnancy therapy provides a calm and nurturing space to explore the internal shifts happening during pregnancy. If you’re feeling anxious, overstimulated, disconnected, or uncertain, therapy helps you understand and regulate these responses with care. We explore your fears, identity changes, emotional transitions, and relational stressors while supporting your mind and body in this season. Pregnancy is a profound transformation, and you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Frequently asked questions
Do you accept insurance?
I’m considered an out-of-network provider, which means you pay for sessions directly and can request reimbursement from your insurance company. If you have out-of-network benefits, I can provide a superbill (an itemized receipt) each month that you can submit to your insurance for potential reimbursement.
Please note that insurance companies require a mental health diagnosis to process claims. This means that you will first need to qualify for a mental health diagnosis before I can provide a superbill.
To check your out-of-network benefits, you can call your insurance provider and ask:
- Do I have out-of-network mental health coverage?
- What is my deductible and have I met it?
- What percentage of my session fee will be reimbursed?
- Do I need pre-authorization for therapy?
Many clients find that their insurance reimburses a portion of their session fees, making therapy more affordable.
What if I don’t want a diagnosis shared with my insurance?
That’s completely okay. If you prefer not to submit claims for reimbursement, your diagnosis will remain private and will not be shared with anyone outside of our work together. Many clients choose to pay privately for this reason, as it allows for complete confidentiality and freedom from insurance requirements.
How does virtual therapy work?
Virtual therapy allows us to meet from the comfort and privacy of your own space. Sessions take place on a secure, HIPAA-compliant video platform designed specifically for therapy.
All you need is a stable internet connection and a quiet, comfortable space where you can talk freely. Many clients find that meeting virtually makes it easier to stay consistent with therapy, without the added stress of travel or scheduling.
Session Fees and Payment
Each therapy session is 50 minutes and billed at a rate of $200 per session. Payment is due at the time of each session and can be made by credit card, debit card, or HSA/FSA card through a secure online system.
If you ever need to adjust your schedule, please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to avoid a late cancellation fee.
Still Have Questions?
If you have any other questions about fees, scheduling, or what to expect, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m happy to answer your questions before we begin so you can feel informed, comfortable, and confident about starting therapy.
