Tara Malone, LMHC

Tara is a passionate mental health therapist with over 25 years of experience in the field, including 15 years in private practice. She specializes in working with teens and adults, utilizing evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Tara takes a holistic approach to treatment, recognizing the complex interplay between the mind, body, and spirit, which allows her to create individualized care plans tailored to each client's needs. In addition to her professional dedication, Tara is a loving mom of two biological children and two bonus teenagers, which enriches her understanding of the challenges and dynamics faced by families. As an active individual who loves nature and outdoor activities, she draws from these personal interests to foster a sense of balance and well-being, both in her own life and in the lives of clients. Tara believes that bringing her authentic self—along with personal experiences and life lessons—into therapy enhances the therapeutic alliance. This openness allows for a deeper connection with clients, helping them feel understood and supported on their journey toward healing. She is committed to empowering clients to discover their strengths and achieve lasting change in a safe and inviting environment.
