Hello! My name is Tara and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I received my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy from The University of Southern California (USC) and my Bachelors in Psychology and Social Behavior from the University of California, Irvine (UCI). I have worked in a college setting, private practice, residential treatment center for teens, and more unconventionally, in matchmaking and dating apps. Working in settings so vastly different from one another has allowed me to work with many people with various diagnoses and backgrounds. While I have experience working with more severe and acute mental health concerns, due to the virtual nature of my practice at this time, my practice is currently mostly seeing people struggling with romantic, familial, or other relationship concerns, anxiety, pandemic support, interpersonal conflict, self esteem, creatives and professionals, students, and more.      For more information, please contact me for a free consultation.
