Tammy Cauthen is the owner and operator of TC Counseling & Consulting Services. She is an advocate for self-care and believes in making sure

people feel comfortable when talking about mental health. Tammy is

passionate about removing the negative stigma associated with

counseling in the African American community. Recently, Tammy decided

to open the TC Transformational Center in the heart of Ensley, a community

in Birmingham, to make office visits more convenient in the “Magic City.”

 

Tammy’s huge heart for her community inspired her to host an annual

book bag drive for Birmingham City School students. Thanks to several

sponsors and volunteers, Tammy managed to donate 800 book bags

stuffed with supplies in 2019. TC Counseling & Consulting Services also

hosts quarterly TC Transformational Summits (TC Talks). These are small

group sessions where attendees are encouraged to dig deep within to

discuss a variety of important topics in a safe, confidential atmosphere.
