Find Counselors by Location
We work to accommodate location/counselor requests and recognize the preference of those. In situations where a location or counselor may be full, we may offer an alternative option with another location/counselor that you are welcome to accept or decline.

Bio
Hello, I'm Tara, a Graduate student studying clinical social work at Portland state University. I have spent the past 5 years working with primarily young women and teenagers as well as adults facing a variety of mental health challenges. I am deeply committed to developing a strong therapeutic relationship where you feel safe to express all parts of yourself and feel seen and respected in this process. I utilize attachment theory, internal family systems and somatic experiencing techniques to identify root causes and well worn mental pathways that keep us stuck. My hope is that in working together you find more mental freedom, a deeper connection to yourself and others, as well as a release from the patterns and memories that have caused you pain or difficulty. Outside of the office I enjoy time in nature, sailing, crocheting and listening to live music.
I am honored to support you in your journey of becoming, and applaud you for taking a leap!
