Tara received her Master’s degree in Counseling Psychology from Chatham University. She is currently working towards licensure as a professional counselor in the state of Pennsylvania. Her clinical interests include identity development, multicultural concerns, trauma, women’s issues, self-compassion, life transitions, and emotional dysregulation. Tara specializes in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and also integrates the theories of humanism, feminism, narrative therapy, and solution focused therapy into her work. She appreciates working with college students as these individuals are at a unique stage of development, which largely focuses on identity exploration. When Tara is not working, she enjoys various forms of movement, spending time with her pets, watching her favorite shows, and watching Pittsburgh football (H2P and go Steelers!).
