Tamara Hunter

I have developed policies and standards of work to integrate the treatment of mental health and substance abuse in behavioral health. As a result, I was selected to attend the Behavior Health Leadership Scholarship Summit by the Network for the Improvement of Addiction Treatment. I have experience leading presentations on evidenced based practices for improved outcomes with clients.

As someone who has experienced the struggle of infertility, I know first hand how difficult it may be to cope. I focus on supporting black women navigating their fertility journey by providing a safe space to process their feelings. I educate and advocate for the Reproductive & Maternal Mental Health field by hosting discussions on my Womb Wisdom podcast.

I am a Perinatal Mental Health trained provider. In private practice, I counsel women & couples experiencing reproductive loss, perinatal mood disorders & infertility. I educate and advocate for the Reproductive & Maternal Mental Health field on my personal Facebook page by providing resources and a free support group. I've facilitated postpartum support groups for Mothers, as well as clinical process groups for Mothers receiving services in the behavioral health department.

I earned a M.S. degree in Dance/Movement Therapy from Pratt Institute. I specialize in Dance/Movement Therapy psycho-therapeutic interventions designed to assist with symptoms caused by trauma, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem & chemical dependency. Dance Movement Therapy incorporates both verbal and non-verbal techniques, providing variety to support self-expression & increase self-awareness.
