"Tamara is such a gift to the food allergy world. 99 percent of living with food allergies is about quality of life but few in the medical field are able to offer this resource. I can’t wait to follow her journey as she continues to influence the world.." -Therapist and food allergy parent
"Tamara’s professional background as a therapist and personal experience as a food allergy parent is the perfect combo for understanding how to address mental wellness around food allergies. My preschool aged kiddo with severe food allergies opened up about his fears and anxiety over the possibility of having a severe allergic reaction. Tamara strategized and worked with me on a game plan on how to address and calm those fears. Her multifaceted approach was spot on. The worry and fear my kiddo felt has dissipated. Tamara also has a history of driving positive change for the children in our community. Our food allergy affected family is very excited that she is channeling her talent and energy into this cause. We appreciate Tamara and all that she has done to help us is more than she’ll ever know." -Food allergy parent
"Tamara has created an invaluable resource for the food allergy community…. The videos provide helpful support as parents navigate the different stages and issues associated with food allergy. And the directory is the best place to start when looking for a local professional with whom to work and address specific issues that arise."
-Allergy parent and advocate
"This directory of food allergy aware mental health professionals has been a tremendous resource to food allergic families and those of us working to serve them. Tamara is an amazing leader who facilitates conversation, learning, mutual support and networking. So here is a big shout out! Thank you!" -Allergy mom and behavioral healthcare professional
