Tara Barrett

Hi, I'm Tara. I I deeply value my relationship with my clients, and prioritize building a warm and welcoming space. I’m not a believer of the 'blank canvas' robotic therapist who nods and asks stoic questions - rather, I enjoy bringing my personality into the space and connecting with you with humor and shared interests. When I’m not wearing my therapist hat, you can often find me outside hiking/running/camping or at a local coffee shop testing my limits with caffeine

I take a very relational approach to therapy. I want our time to be a space where you can show up as you are, share openly, and feel heard and understood. I also want you to experience the support and growth you're looking for, so I prioritize collaboration and feedback. Clients who work with me share that I am warm, thoughtful and compassionate, while also creating space for growth.

For you who does so much and yet constantly feel like you're falling short - I am with you, and I would love to be a support for you. I love to support and empower clients around themes of anxiety, self-esteem, relationship issues and childhood or attachment trauma. In our time together, we will practice self-reflection and self-compassion, develop effective coping strategies and communication skills, and strengthen your relationship with yourself and others.
