About Tara

I am an analytically trained psychotherapist who uses a combination of traditional and modern approaches to gain insight into your present concerns or past experiences that are causing distress. I'm active and engaged in sessions, and I provide a warm atmosphere for you to explore thoughts, feelings, and memories, or worries about the future. I've personally done psychedelic work with a "medicine woman," as well as a shaman from Mexico, and have gained a good understanding of what healing with psychedelics looks like. Ketamine is a much shorter duration of medicinal effect, and typically provides immediate relief to depression and anxiety loops. It can bypass the defenses that might be keeping you stuck or stalled out in traditional psychotherapy. Additionally, it provides a unique opportunity to rewire neural pathways in the brain, and coupled with psychotherapy, people often feel much better after the first session.
