Tara's Therapeutic Approach
I take time to really get to know each person’s story, looking at the big picture before diving into specific issues. My main focus is on helping couples navigate their relationships, encouraging them to explore, discuss, and challenge their thoughts and feelings together. I use a systemic and integrative approach, always maintaining a nonjudgmental stance.

My therapeutic style is warm, intuitive, collaborative, and often sprinkled with humor.
