More about Tara

My approach is creative, collaborative, and person-centered. As a therapist, I like to be a curious observer, understanding how OCD shows up for you. Although ERP sessions are quite structured compared to typical talk therapy, the work will be tailored to your experience. The goals of therapy may sound lofty, but we take them one step at a time. We just focus on that next step. I have also treated anxiety, depression, trauma, and post-traumatic stress disorder. I’m interested in ideas around shame, social connection, grief, belonging, and acceptance of uncertainty.
