IntroStyleCostMore info

Great to meet you!

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker with a Masters of Social Work degree from Columbia University and I am a doctoral candidate at the University of Pennsylvania. As a seasoned clinical social worker, with twenty-years of experience, I have experience working with individuals who experience ADHD, depression, anxiety, mood disorders, developmental disorders, substance misuse and who may have histories of trauma.

As a clinician, I utilize Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Enhancement Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I am trained in Social Thinking, UnStuck and On Target, and PEERS curricula. I am experienced in teaching emotional regulation, flexibility and social pragmatic skills.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I utilize a person centered, relational, humanistic approach to therapy that focuses on understanding a person in their whole environment—what has life been like that led you this moment, and what can be changed to help you move forward?

What you can expect from our first session

I intentionally create a therapuetic space that feels safe, warm, inviting and free of judgement.

Tarah's style is

Warm
Empowering
