Hello! If you are looking for a greater sense of freedom, joy, and to get the "spark" back in your life, I am ready to walk with you on that journey! I'm interested in what it’s like to be YOU. I believe when you tell your story and listen to how both your mind and body respond, you will be able to move towards healing. My name is Atara and I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I am currently seeing clients all over the state of California virtually. I specialize in clients looking to work on developing a deeper understanding between the mind and body connection. I loves to support clients in creating a sustainable vision. The goal in my work is to empower clients on gaining clarity to obtain holistic balance in mind, body, and soul. I believes that a strong therapeutic connection is vital and progress can be limited when a client doesn’t feel understood. My aim is to align with my clients in a strong therapeutic alliance.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, we will discuss what brings you into this space, dive into some background and history as well as collaborate on goals you wish to set for our time together.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I have great success with supporting clients overcome depression and anxiety symptoms by utilizing lifestyle shifts, nutrition, supplementation and mindfulness. When the mind is supported it can allow the body to heal and vise versa. It’s so powerful to watch clients cease their struggles with chronic illness and find freedom again. One of my favorite populations to work with are moms. Burnt out, exhausted, and stressed? I’d love to help you cope and heal your body, especially in the postpartum stages. Motherhood does not have to be a marathon of trials. Lastly, I absolutely adore couples who actively seek support. The marital relationship is the foundation of the home. I love helping couples examine communication styles, tackle negotiation and consider how polarity impacts them.
