About Tara

Tara Brown is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Washington with 8 years of professional experience working with teens and adults. She supports people facing a range of concerns, including stress and anxiety, struggles with addiction, and the lasting effects of trauma and abuse, while also addressing motivation, self-esteem, and confidence.

She prioritizes a warm, nonjudgmental therapeutic space where clients can explore thoughts and emotions openly. Tara draws from evidence-informed methods to tailor care, drawing on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) as appropriate to each person’s needs.

Recognizing that change takes courage, Tara aims to empower clients as they take steps toward a more fulfilling life. Her practice emphasizes collaboration, practical strategies, and support to help people build resilience and move toward their goals.

Therapeutic Approaches for Remote Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and developing practical skills to change them. It is often used for issues like anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching tools for managing reactions and building healthier habits.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, combines skills training and emotional regulation techniques to help people tolerate distress, improve relationships, and reduce impulsive behaviors. It can be especially helpful for intense emotions and difficulties with self-management.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, known as EMDR, is a trauma-focused approach that helps reduce the emotional intensity of distressing memories by pairing guided processing with targeted bilateral stimulation; it is commonly used for post-traumatic stress and lingering trauma symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tara works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She adapts strategies over time based on progress and feedback.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow people to access licensed professionals and therapists from locations that suit them while maintaining a consistent course of care.
