Currently, I have openings for individuals and couples. We can be discerning, intuitive, & emotionally intelligent in our selection of partners. However, we won't know how real our love is until we go through the fire of conflict and stay centered in the face of feedback. The clients that show up in my office need support with conflict, abuse, trauma, mood disorders, ADHD, commitment, relationship and sexual intimacy. Clients want to feel worthy of love and establish trust and commitment in their relationships. Clients want to be heard, seen, loved for who they are and be open to reciprocity in love.

Tara also loves guiding clients towards healing relationships and teaching more effective communication- whether it be with your spouse, a family member, or a co-worker/boss.
Tara has an energetic laugh that puts clients at ease and enjoys playfully incorporating her love of sarcasm into her work with her clients. She has been known to lovingly call people out on their “bologna” when she hears it and is a great accountability partner. Tara is also incredibly empathetic and provides a warm and safe environment and a quiet listening ear when the situation calls for it. Noticing and reading nonverbal communication and body language is a skill Tara possesses in spades so she often learns a lot even from things that go unsaid. Tara is judgement free and she encourages you to be genuine and authentic.

We work to help people identify and understand what a healthy relationship is and what an unhealthy relationship is.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed with life and the pressures of day to day responsibilities? Sometimes these feelings can be related to stressors that are currently happening or related to past traumas. Despite this, there is good reason for optimism - for many, these challenges are temporary. Any significant life event can cause upsets and create hardships adjusting. You are certainly not alone. Small steps and changes can lead to big differences in lives. Seeking therapy can feel scary, but you're making the right choice.

It can be the relationship you have with your family, or the one you have with yourself. Maybe it’s even the relationship you have with work.

Are you having difficulty with your relationships? When you understand how important you are and how valuable your life is, I believe you will make better choices when it comes to the people you allow into your life. My hope is that you recognize the unique things you offer the world and be vulnerable enough to share them. Connection to people is something we all need and it is often determined through the love we hold for ourselves.
