About the Practitioner
Tara Fischer MAPC, LAC
Tara’s clinical approach to therapy is similar to the way she lives her life: consciously decluttering negative thoughts and feelings while actively making room for new ideas about what is possible for the future. Creating space to envision a different future while consciously examining past traumas through the lens of understanding can shift a client towards realizing their own potential. Tara’s experience working with children and adults with complex sexual, emotional, and physical trauma has led her to value the therapeutic relationship as a process of immense healing and growth. Tara is an EMDR I and II trained therapist with a passion for allowing the client to observe connections to past trauma in order to feel the relief of letting go of thoughts, feelings, and sensations that no longer serve the client moving forward. Tara creates a nonjudgmental space to allow the client to share their unique story while also focusing on daily habits that support change. Tara is also Trauma-focused CBT and Solution-focused trained, making use of specific approaches to meet the client’s therapeutic needs.
