Tara Beach is a queer, millennial mom of two, former military spouse, and therapist specializing in PTSD/trauma, anxiety, depression, LGBTQ issues, veterans, and perinatal mental health. Throughout my life, I have worked to understand and embody my authentic self, and that informs how I show up as a therapist: I will always be me and believe that this helps people feel safe when building a connection with me, a human being rather than a blank slate expert.
I like to explain my interventions to clients so that they understand how and why they work, and I welcome challenging questions and even skepticism! My experiences with diverse clients, as well as my lived experience in a family with a variety of races, ethnicities, religions, gender identities, and sexual orientations, have led me to continuously challenge and humble myself regarding the impacts and intersections of cultural identities.
I work to create a safe, supportive environment for clients to work through their challenges, manage emotions, develop healthy coping strategies, and gain greater insight into their behaviors.
