In Person Therapists in Royersford, PA

In my therapeutic setting, it is essential that the space I offer is used to best meet my clients' individual needs. I am committed to creating an environment where my clients feel empowered to focus treatment on their desired areas of therapy, as we collaborate with one another to create an individual treatment plan. My role will be used to hold a space for my clients to be heard and to empower the client in working towards their self-identified goals. I utilize a person-centered approach, as well as encourage clients to explore mindfulness techniques that ultimately allow for increased sense of center and presence.

My goal is to create an accepting and non-judgmental space where people feel safe, heard, and understood. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, internal family systems therapy/parts work, and dialectical behavioral therapy skills to work with adults, teens, and children ages 10 and above.

An ideal client for me is someone who has difficulty managing their emotions, engages in frequent negative thinking, and has trouble communicating their needs with family and friends. They want to decrease their anxious or depressive behaviors but have little knowledge of how to begin regulating their emotions.

I am experienced in depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, relational conflict, family systems, addiction, criminal justice, anger management, eating disorders/body image, and mood disorders. The ideal client actively wants to explore their behaviors and thinking patterns and identify the underlying causes of these behaviors. In addition, the ideal client will be willing to tackle goals inside & outside therapy sessions. My ideal client would be an individual who is internally and externally motivated to change their life. They show up to sessions on time consistently and make a conscious effort to engage in the therapeutic process.

Therapy should be a place where you feel safe and validated as you are working through the messy challenges of life. I enjoy working with individuals and couples who are looking for support in the process of healing from trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and substance abuse.

Do you struggle with feeling disconnected from yourself and others? Do you put your needs at the bottom of the to-do list? Do you wonder if life should feel somehow better? Now more than ever, people are feeling anxious, overwhelmed and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers, and their lives. Pushing away your needs and not taking time for yourself can lead to long-term issues for your mind and body. We believe it shouldn’t be so hard to live a better life. If you're looking to overcome a challenge, new or old, in a supportive and judgment-free space, you'll find that here.

Struggling with overwhelming emotions or constant anxiety? Are you finding it hard to break free from negative thinking patterns & triggers? I’m here to help. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I specialize in treating Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar Disorder, and Borderline Personality Disorder. My goal is to support you in managing your thoughts & feelings, reducing distress, and achieving a sense of inner calm and happiness. I understand that navigating life’s challenges can feel daunting, especially if you’re unsure where to start.

There's hope for you, your child, teen, or young adult! If they are tired of chaos or can't find a way out of the tunnel, I am here. You or your child are not lost, only misguided by outside stress, traumatic events, judgments and invalidation. Everyone's a moment away from being rediscovered. I specialize in treating children through young adults (5- 26+) and hope to guide them on their journey. I identify key coping skills to manage rollercoaster emotions, chaotic relationships, impulsive/destructive behaviors, and connect mind-body through somatic practices. This stabilization allows space for processing of adverse experiences.

Empathy for the realities of human suffering and trauma in our world, drew me to devote my career to therapy. I have a passion for helping children, teens, young adults, parents and families understand the patterns of harm that are contributing to their suffering. I believe each individual who enters the therapy process possesses the ability to explore the roots of their suffering and begin the journey toward healing.

I enjoy working with clients who want to get to the root of their struggles. These clients would like to gain insight into their symptoms, something difficult that has happened to them or to explore cycles and patterns that aren’t serving them. The clients I see often have attended therapy in the past. The clients I see also often present with attachment-based traumas, symptoms of post-traumatic stress, and difficulties in their personal and work relationships.

We all experience challenges at one time or another in our lives that feel overwhelming and confusing, whether they be work, family, personal, relationship, etc. Consulting a professional during these stressful times can provide a sense of direction and reassurance. As a firm believer in each person's inherent strengths and resources, I will work with you to identify obstacles and develop new tools to help more effectively meet challenging circumstances. I

I am accepting clients ranging from fourteen years of age and older. I work with individuals, families, and couples. Although I have experience treating an eclectic range of concerns, ideally, my clients may be facing symptoms of anxiety, depression, substance misuse, and PTSD. I have great expertise in treating dually-diagnosed clients, substance misuse, and mental health. The stress and hardships that come with these issues are often too much to handle on your own; please let me help.

Therapy is about you, and the therapeutic relationship is everything to me. When it comes to therapy, I believe it is very important that the client and therapist develop a good therapeutic relationship, so that they can work well together and establish client-based needs and goals. Everybody’s journey is so very individual, and I will work with you on what you need, and we will go at your pace. We will work together as a team to make sure you are getting what you need out of therapy, and that you are walking away feeling a little bit better than when you came in.

Life can be tough. I’ve found that many people are searching for a better way to navigate life’s challenges, and I appreciate being able to help turn difficult times into manageable ones. I really enjoy working with clients who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, have relationship struggles, or just feel like they’ve lost sight of themselves. If you’re tired of life’s stressors hitting so hard, I want you to know you aren’t alone. Some days feel like a roller-coaster, and finding a path forward, out of the mess, on your own can be daunting.

A strong and trusting therapeutic relationship is the first step in making positive and healthy changes. I'm a strong believer in the quote, "You grow through what you go through." By providing a safe and affirming space, I work with and support children, adolescents, and young adults, alongside their families, to be the expert on their lives while supporting and guiding them to take initiative to heal and make healthy, long-term changes. I take a trauma-informed approach with all clients and utilize techniques and principles from CBT, Narrative Therapy, Reality Therapy, Play Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.

This client may be facing a multitude of challenges, which Tara is prepared to address with her expertise and compassionate approach.

We all wish we could transition through our life cycles without conflict, struggles, disappointments, and frustrations. Unfortunately, this desire is fantasy, as the realities of life show up derailing us and interfering with our personal relationships with our partners, family, and friends. These life challenges can make us feel unwell, not like your ordinary self while negatively effecting our ability to have positive interactions at home with our loved ones or to perform our best at work or school. Overtime, this disruption in our positive energy flow can result in chronic anxiety, sadness, or clinical depression.

I particularly enjoy working with women aged 20-40 who are working to overcome anxiety and depression or are coping with relationship dynamics. I believe most clients have a trauma history that shapes their mental health concerns, and helping them to process and heal from this history is vital to the client achieving a better quality of life. My ideal client will be seeking to learn new coping skills, communication strategies, or relationship skills.
