Hello there, my name is Tara. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with passion for empowering my clients and treating mental illness. I have extensive background and experience in treating individuals whom experience depression, anxiety (general and social), bipolar disorder, trauma history and PTSD and have worked with individuals as young as 5 years old to older adults. . In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can improve your life. Let's thrive together!
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Clients can expect interventions and techniques to utilize between sessions, focus on implementing changing into daily life, and working towards unique and collaborative treatment goals.
The treatment methods and tools I utilize
I utilize evidenced based treatments including trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, humanistic, and dialectical behavioral therapy. I operate from a strengths based and trauma informed perspective.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I enjoy motivational interviewing, working on advocacy, and particularly enjoy assisting clients through transitions. Although I have experience with all age groups, I feel working with young adults is one of my biggest strengths.
