Tara is such a kind, caring and understanding person. I feel I can talk about anything and she would never judge me, not just because she’s a therapist but because she genuinely isn’t a judgemental person. I feel like she really wants to help and she does help me. She is very good at making me reflect and think about myself and my mind. She often catches the way I word things and puts them back to me in a way that makes me reframe my thoughts. I really feel like she’s helped me to be a better, stronger person, but she would only ever credit me for that. I honestly am so glad that I started therapy with Tara, I don’t know what I’d do without our sessions. Honestly couldn’t recommend her more!

Let’s face it - life can be tough! Do you feel low/depressed, anxious, or perhaps lacking in self-esteem and confidence? Or maybe you are just feeling generally overwhelmed? Having a space where you can truly be yourself without fear of judgement can be a life changing experience.

I am a dedicated and compassionate counsellor, committed to providing a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and concerns and where you can feel heard, no matter what you may bring to session.

I believe in building a genuine therapeutic relationship based on trust, empathy, and respect. As an integrative counsellor I can tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each individual, by using a range of approaches including Person-Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy and I regularly participate in professional development to enhance my skills and knowledge.

If you're ready to take the next step towards positive change, please reach out for a confidential chat. If you can't find a suitable time slot within my calendar, please still contact me as I do have flexibility with my availablity.

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.
