Sometimes it’s hard to put into words what’s going on inside. Individual therapy provides a
gentle, confidential space to process your experiences and begin healing.

Hi, I'm Tara!
I’m a counsellor with experience working alongside individuals, couples, and families navigating trauma and mental health challenges.
I offer a supportive and non-judgmental space where you can explore what’s happening beneath the surface. Helping you identify thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that may no longer be serving you.
Together, we’ll work to develop practical, effective strategies that support emotional regulation, strengthen relationships, and promote lasting change. I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs, drawing on evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and Solution-Focused approaches.
My work is grounded in clinical research and professional experience—but more than anything, it’s grounded in you. Your goals, values, and lived experience shape everything we do.

We’ll begin by getting to know each other. You’ll share what’s brought you to therapy (as much or as little as you like), and we’ll explore how I can best support you. There’s no pressure to go deep right away—it’s your space, your pace.
WHAT HAPPENS IN OUR FIRST SESSION?
That depends entirely on your goals. Some clients come for a short period of focused support, while others prefer ongoing sessions. We’ll check in regularly to ensure you feel supported.
HOW MANY SESSIONS WILL I NEED?
At this time, my focus is on supporting adults, couples, and families. I do work with parents seeking support around their child’s needs and can offer referrals for child-specific therapy if needed.
DO YOU WORK WITH CHILDREN OR TEENS
Yes, I offer both in-person sessions in Brisbane and secure online sessions for clients across Australia.
DO YOU OFFER TELEHEALTH?
I kindly ask for 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your session. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may incur the full session fee.

The Conscious Counsellor acknowledges and regrets the imposition to the lives and culture of Aboriginal people which occurred as a result of European colonisation within Australia. We would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of Country throughout Australia and their connections to the land, sea and the community. We will continue to pay respects to their elders past and present and all aboriginal people, especially those we may meet as part of our work.
