About the Therapist/Coach- Tammi C. Walker, MSW
Tammi C. Walker is a Therapist, Life Coach, Social Worker, Motivational Speaker, Workshop Facilitator and Author. With a MSW from Dominican University and a Bachelor’s Degree in Business/Organizational Management. Tammi also has a Certification in Life Coaching and Personal Training, as well as her own life experience, Ms. Walker is uniquely qualified to provide outstanding guidance in matters of the body, mind, heart and soul.
It is not only her professional training that sets Tammi C. Walker apart. In her youth, Ms. Walker experienced many tragedies including the death of both her parents, divorce and financial loss. Perhaps her greatest challenge came a few years later when she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Using the tools and strengths she developed through her earlier hardships, Ms. Walker overcame breast cancer, only to be diagnosed again a few years later. While many might take this as a final blow, this, Ms. Walker explains, made her even stronger. Shortly thereafter, Ms. Walker as a now second time cancer survivor embarked on a journey to share the resources and wisdom she has earned to help others survive their life struggles.
Ms. Walker puts it best when she states “I have been through the fire and it is in my tragedies that I found my greatest strength.” As a two time cancer survivor, Ms. Walker has not only faced great challenges in her own life, but used her success to create tools and support for others. With her extensive training and life experience, Ms. Walker has spent the past 6 years working with individual men and women, cancer patients and youth one on one as well as large groups in workshops and trainings to overcome and manage their own life challenges. With education and personal experience combined, Ms. Walker helps people to not only recognize, but prove, that their Dreams are a Reality.
