More about Tara

12 years' experience
Female
LPC

I am licensed in New Jersey with over 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, & motivation, self esteem, and confidence. I also have experience working with depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Personal healing is just that, it's personal and everyone heals differently and at different rates. The way we talk to ourselves is important and I would love to help you have a better relationship with yourself.

I am a very down to earth person and will use my own real life experiences in sessions when appropriate. I am a realistic person and use humor in my sessions as well.

Our bodies are our best guide map and will teach you how to tune into your body to get the answers that you need. We usually have all the answers, we just don't always know how to access them or trust that they are "right".

I have a holistic approach and may use techniques such as tapping to assist with releasing stress and trauma from the body. I also will suggest journaling and meditation activities outside of sessions to help clients get the full benefit from what we discuss.

I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

About online counseling

Affordable.: Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.: Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.: There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
