Tamara began teaching when she was in grade three at her chalkboard where she used to pretend she had a class of students and she would teach them whatever she had learned that day at school! Now, many years later, she still teaches in many different learning environments.
She has been on staff at Vancouver Community College since 1991. She teaches in the Counselling and Addictions Counselling Programs. While she has taught a variety of courses, she presently teaches ethics and is the lead instructor and supervisor for student clinical practicums.
She also teaches at the Nimbus School of Recording Arts. She teaches students completing their diplomas in engineering and record production how to understand and deal with musical talent, conflict management as well their own personal issues which affect them in the music industry.
Tamara is a clinical supervisor at several non-profit agencies in Vancouver assisting staff and management with clinical and personnel issues. She also provides consultation and supervision privately to a number of therapists who contract with her to consult on a variety of clinical issues.
Tamara has worked as an instructor at the Justice Institute of B.C. and for the Provincial Government on many occasions lecturing on various topics.
She is often asked to give public lectures at community centres, schools and parent participation preschools for parents of young children navigating relationship issues.
