Tara McBrearty

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

Licensed by the State of California with 30 years of experience, I provide an opportunity for people to explore their emotional landscape as they navigate difficult life transitions. By supporting their sense of self and encouraging their capacity to manage change, I have helped clients sort through conflicts in their relationships, understand barriers to intimacy, re-discover their enthusiasm for life, build trust in themselves and others, and push through barriers to career growth and accomplishment. A cooperative and tolerant approach is key to happiness. I work to offer this tone in my professional relationship with you. This in turn creates an environment of freedom and creativity in our sessions. I understand, the courage required to take the pivotal steps to pursue your sense of purpose and fulfillment. I am pleased to be selected by you to support & empower this journey.

Post Script: I am deeply influenced by the writings of Carl Jung, Abraham Maslow, Piaget, Carl Rogers, and Adi Da Samraj, to mention a few. Also, the trainings of Virginia Satire, Michael White , Gabor Mate, Ellyn Bader, John and Julie Gottman, William R. Miller and David Whyte have enlarged my sense of what it is to be human and how to relate productively to our thoughts and feelings.
