About Tara
Tara draws on several proven approaches to tailor care to each person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful patterns and build workable skills. She also brings client-centered and mindfulness-based ways of working that prioritize what each person values and notices in the moment.
Over nearly two decades in public and private settings, she has supported people facing grief, trauma and abuse, substance concerns, parenting stress, sleep and eating challenges, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and identity-related issues including gender dysphoria and LGBT concerns. She also helps with communication problems, codependency, and the strains that come with adoption and foster care or attachment difficulties.
Tara aims to build a strong therapeutic relationship first. In sessions she listens carefully, helps people name barriers, and works with them to try different tools. Her goal is to help people make manageable changes that fit their life and values.
