About Tara
Tara Huber is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 19 years of experience. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can bring their real concerns without needing to have everything figured out. Tara helps clients who are stressed, grieving, facing relationship strains, or coping with big life changes, including responses to natural or human-caused disasters.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Sessions focus on understanding the thoughts and emotions that keep someone stuck and building small, practical steps forward. Tara uses approaches that center the client’s needs and strengths while teaching concrete coping skills for anxiety, depression, ADHD, addiction concerns, and other challenges.
She also addresses parenting stress, attachment and adoption-related concerns, blended family issues, eating and body image struggles, and communication problems. Tara works with people dealing with grief, fertility or caregiving strain, and intimacy and commitment questions. She brings nearly two decades of experience to these topics and adjusts her approach to each person’s situation.
Tara aims to help people develop clearer insight and steady routines that support mood, relationships, and daily function. She emphasizes small, manageable steps rather than perfection. Clients collaborate on goals and practice skills between sessions so progress can show up in everyday life.
People who want a compassionate, practical counselor to walk alongside them often find her approach helpful. She encourages anyone feeling overwhelmed or stuck to begin with a single step toward change.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Tara uses client-centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s needs so they feel heard and supported. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches skills to manage anxiety, depression, and everyday stress.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills when overwhelming feelings interfere with daily life. These approaches are presented in a collaborative way so the therapist and client decide together which methods to try based on goals and preferences.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tara will discuss options, try techniques together, and adjust methods as needed so therapy fits the person’s pace and priorities. Clients shape goals and test practical steps between sessions to see what helps.
