Find a licensed online therapist in Sun City West, AZ

Hello! I am a Master's level therapist, licensed as both a Professional Counselor and a Licensed Independent Addictions Counselor. My years of experience and training allow me to supervise other therapists, also. I believe that we ALL are works in progress. Sometimes a person outside of our immediate environment can be the one who provides the opportunity for personal growth, and so I enjoy very much being available to others for this purpose. Stressors, anxiety, depression, addictions, and trauma are part of the human condition. A person who wants to make changes to improve life should be celebrated rather than shamed! Although my toolkit contains Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma Informed Care, Solution-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Motivational Interviewing, Brief Therapy, and faith-based counseling, I prefer to always work with a client-centered approach and in whatever way is most effective for that person. I will check in each session to ensure that you are seeing progress and that the work we are doing together is helpful. It will be an honor and privilege to join you for part of your life's journey, and I look forward to getting to know you!

I believe therapy should feel like a space where you can show up exactly as you are — without judgment, pressure, or having to “have it all figured out.” With more than 20 years of experience as a licensed therapist, I work alongside clients to help them better understand themselves, navigate difficult seasons of life, and create meaningful, lasting change. Many of the people I work with are dealing with anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, life transitions, low self-esteem, or the emotional weight of caring for others while trying to care for themselves. Some feel overwhelmed or stuck, while others simply want a deeper understanding of who they are and what they need in order to feel more grounded and fulfilled. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and person-centered. I believe each individual’s story, experiences, and strengths matter, and I tailor therapy to fit your unique needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we can explore patterns that may no longer serve you, strengthen coping skills, improve self-awareness, and build a healthier relationship with yourself and others. I have experience supporting young adults, older adults, caregivers, and individuals facing major life changes or questions around identity, purpose, relationships, and personal growth. Whether you are navigating a difficult transition or simply looking for a space to process and heal, my goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and empowered throughout the process. I am licensed in Iowa and Arizona and am honored to support clients on their path toward healing, resilience, and self-discovery.

Hello and welcome. My name is Tara and I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Arizona. Counseling any person, no matter where they have come from, or what challenges they are struggling with, is my passion. I enjoy helping people achieve what they desire in this life. Whether it is to have a better marriage, learn how to deal with depression, less anxiety with every new situation that arises, or parenting struggles, I can help. I love helping people to be the very best versions of themselves and giving them the tools to help with varying hurdles in life. Life can be so tough, and seeking counseling is a very brave first step and I am so grateful you came here. We all go through hills and valleys in life, but it's so much better to go through those valleys when you have the right tools in which to deal with the tough times. Life is a gift. Counseling is a gift and I hope to be able to help you with your journey. A little about me. I grew up a military kid and was able to travel the world with my family, which came with some wonderful experiences and also some challenges of having to adjust quickly to different settings. Along the way I met a lot of great people and had the opportunity to learn family dynamics, and cultures from a very young age. I am grateful to have had to change and move throughout my childhood so that I could end up in this field where I can truly help so many different kinds of people, no matter their background, or what struggles they are going through. I received my bachelors degree in Human Development and Family Studies from Colorado State University. I then went on to receive my Masters degree from Argosy University in Phoenix, Arizona. My counseling approach is mindfulness training, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution focused brief therapy. I believe we all have the ability to get where we want to go, but sometimes we need a little help along the way.

With over two decades of experience in the counseling field, I am a seasoned and devoted professional currently serving at Better Help. My diverse and comprehensive background includes roles such as a Special Education Teacher, Psychology Instructor, Executive Director, Lead Therapist at an outpatient drug treatment facility, Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor managing a Transition Caseload, and a Disability Services Counselor, where I provided assistance with ADA Accommodations for students with impairments. My academic pursuit in the psychology and counseling sphere began with earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from Tuskegee University. I then advanced to Troy University where I obtained a Master of Science degree in Counseling & Human Development. Further deepening my expertise, I completed a Master of Education in Rehabilitation Counseling from Auburn University. As a testament to my dedication and competence, I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the states of Texas, Colorado, California and Arizona, along with being a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor (CRC) recognized across all 50 states. My counseling practice extends to a wide range of specialty areas such as ADD/ADHD, Anxiety and Panic disorders, Autism and Autism Spectrum Disorders, Bullying, Cultural and Ethical Issues, Depression, End of Life discussions, Isolation and Loneliness, Personality Disorders, Pregnancy and Childbirth, Prejudice and Discrimination, Self-Harm, counseling for survivors of Rape and Violent Crime, Trauma, and Workplace challenges. Over the years, I have honed my skills in several clinical approaches to therapy, including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. My philosophy centers around meeting clients where they are in their journey. If you are serious, committed, and prepared to enact change, I extend my utmost readiness to walk this path alongside you. Together, let's embark on this transformative journey.

The issues I work with in therapy are mind-body issues. I do not have a mental illness approach. What is good for the body is good for the brain and vice versa. My openness and inclusivity influence my approach to therapy. I do not judge. I accept. I am more interested in your uniqueness than your diagnosis and I expect a full recovery in treatment. I fit well with expectations from a person who is here on their own volition, is willing and open to change, and is trying to develop resiliency in life, problem-solving without drama in relationships, and self-respect. I try my best to provide a secure space and collaborate. I take notes and I read them at the end of the session. As opposed to homework, I offer experiments to try between conversations. Depending on preference, I can be direct in helping people identify their goals by collaborating on a treatment plan. I can also be non-direct and identify our goals through the flow of the conversation. A first session with me begins with a casual greeting and formalities regarding confidentiality, rights, and risk assessment questions, followed by a lead-in question to get the ball rolling.
