About Tara

I’ve always carried a deep intuitive knowing — a sense that healing begins within. Over the past 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside countless individuals on their paths to self-discovery and emotional freedom. I believe that most illness, whether physical or emotional, is rooted in stress, anxiety, or unresolved life experiences. When these remain unaddressed, they often manifest in the body as pain, disconnection, or disease. My approach blends traditional psychotherapy with innovative, evidence-based methods, including LENS Neurofeedback and Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP). As a trained KAP provider, I incorporate this powerful modality when appropriate to help clients access deeper insight, process unresolved trauma, and experience meaningful transformation. I believe KAP can be a catalyst for profound emotional and psychological healing.
