Description
Starting therapy can be challenging, but it takes strength to seek change and support. I create a safe, non-judgmental space where you can share your experiences. Together, we’ll set goals, develop a plan, and work through any barriers. Therapy is an investment in yourself—you are worth it! Tara works with individuals facing a range of challenges, including mood and anxiety disorders, OCD, BPD, ADHD, gender dysphoria, relationship issues, and sleep difficulties. She uses evidence-based therapies tailored to your unique needs.
