Welcome to Grow! I am Dr. Tara. I admire your courage in seeking help for the challenges you are facing right now. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia. With over 10 years of experience, I have provided both group and individual sessions. A few of my specialties are anxiety, depression, stress, and anger management. I use a variety of treatment approaches such as Cognitive Processing, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical- Behavioral therapy, and others. Once we identify what you would like to get out of the counseling process, we can identify specific strategies to help meet those goals. I look forward to working with you!

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

In our first session together, we will start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help me create a tailored plan to work through in follow-up sessions.

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

I am trained and skilled to address various mental health challenges. My biggest strength is being supportive to my clients, exercising empathy, and encouraging them to grow and change to achieve the life they imagined for themselves.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I enjoy working with clients 14 years older and above
