About Tara Hale
With a particular interest in the mind-body connection, she recognises how prolonged stress can affect physical wellbeing - for example through aches and pains or disturbed sleep - and how those physical reactions can reinforce emotional distress. Tara draws on a variety of therapeutic methods to meet each person's needs, including humanistic, transpersonal and spiritual approaches, person-centred work, psychodynamic ideas and creative techniques, and she can adopt a more goal-oriented style when that better suits the client.
She offers both short-term packages of therapy (options of 4, 6, 8 or 12 sessions) and longer-term counselling. Sessions generally start at 9am with a limited number of later appointments at 7pm or 8pm; scheduling and session structure can be discussed before therapy begins and reviewed as work progresses. Tara is a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and practices in line with their professional code of ethics. She aims to create a safe and accepting environment where people can feel seen, heard and supported on their therapeutic journey.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Tara works from a mix of clinical approaches to tailor support to each person's situation. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a warm, non-judgemental relationship in which the individual’s own values and choices guide progress - this approach is helpful for issues like low self-esteem, relationship concerns and life transitions. Psychodynamic Therapy explores how past relationships and unconscious patterns influence present feelings and behaviours; it can be useful for people who want to understand recurring difficulties such as attachment problems, long-standing relationship patterns or unresolved grief. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on identifying practical steps and small changes that lead toward clear goals, making it a good fit for people seeking focused help with stress, coping, or short-term challenges.
Finding the most helpful approach is part of the work together. Tara takes a collaborative stance, discussing options with clients and adapting methods according to their needs, goals and preferences so that therapy feels relevant and manageable.
Online delivery - by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - adds flexibility to this process. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, reduce travel time and allow people to engage from familiar settings. Registered professionals can use these formats to provide consistent therapeutic support while tailoring pace and style to individual circumstances.
