I offer remote (video and telephone) appointments. I also offer evening and weekend appointments.

Hi, I’m Tara.

Does life feel like you're going in circles. Perhaps you’re going through the motions or feel caught between wanting change and not knowing how to move forward?

Feeling flat, emotionally drained or even unsure of yourself and what you need?

I am a person-centred counsellor, who trained later in life, and bring both professional insight and rich life experience to my work. I understand how vital a trusting relationship is, and I offer a warm, trusting, safe space where you can speak openly without judgement.

Through our work together, you will have the opportunity to feel truly heard and explore what feels difficult for you right now, developing a deeper understanding of yourself.

I know it may be hard to start counselling, and maybe you don’t know what to expect? You are not alone. Send me an email, text message or give me a call and we can discuss what you would like to get from counselling, and any concerns you may have starting. 

I run a private practice, offering counselling online and by phone. 

I provide a professional, confidential space to work with you to support a range of difficulties, including:

Stress or anxiety.

Depression.

Stuck or overwhelmed.

Burn out or feeling emotionally exhausted.

People feeling as though they are masking their needs or identity.

Low in self-worth or lacking confidence.

Are navigating life transitions, including menopause and peri-menopause.

Alongside my counselling training, I bring over 20 years' experience supporting children with Speech, Language and social-communication differences, including Autism, and working closely with their families. I have seen first-hand the pressures, challenges and emotional load that long-term caring or professional roles can bring and explore this with care.

Please note, I aim to respond to any messages with 24 hours.

I am a fully qualified and insured counsellor. 

It's not my job tell you what to do, however it is my job to ensure you feel comfortable enough to talk to me, and we will explore what’s happening at a pace that feels manageable for you.

The first session is an opportunity for us to explore what has brought you to counselling, and to see if working together feels right, as it's important that you find the therapist that is the best fit for you.

It may feel overwhelming, however it's ok to ask questions, and I aim to ensure you feel empowered in our work together.
