How Tara works
Trauma-focused methods are used when past events continue to affect daily life. Her work aims to make therapy feel usable. She listens carefully, offers practical strategies, and checks in about what is useful.
Humor and genuine interaction are part of how she connects with people and keeps sessions approachable. People often seek her help for anger, intimacy-related struggles, career decisions, life transitions, obsessive thoughts or compulsions, panic attacks, and family-of-origin concerns. She also supports those facing caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, commitment worries, and divorce or separation challenges.
Tara earned a Master of Arts and holds the LMHC and LCPC credentials. She practices in New Hampshire and conducts sessions in English. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling based on therapist availability.

How Tara’s Methods Work Online
Tara uses client-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding your goals, and helping you tap your own strengths to make change. Cognitive behavioral therapy identifies unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to manage anxiety, mood problems, panic, and stress.She also brings narrative and solution-focused ideas into sessions to help people reframe difficult stories and set small, achievable goals. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Tara will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and adjust methods together over time.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is good for a full conversation with visual cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or people who prefer writing. These options make scheduling more flexible and help therapy fit into busy lives.
