About Tara
Tara Hale is a counsellor in the United Kingdom who helps people cope with anxiety, stress and relationship difficulties. She supports people facing grief, addiction, trauma and low self-esteem. Her approach aims to make sessions feel straightforward and practical for everyday life.
She has seven years of professional experience and is a member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists, BACP. Tara offers short and longer-term counselling depending on what someone feels they need.
Background and approach
Sessions can be reviewed and adjusted as therapy progresses. Tara pays attention to how the body and mind interact. She notices when stress affects sleep, causes aches, or changes how someone behaves towards others.
Conversations often include simple ways to break those patterns and reduce ongoing strain. Her practice draws on humanistic and psychodynamic ideas along with solution-focused ways of working. That means sessions can be open and exploratory, or focused on specific goals and steps.
Tara adapts her style to what the person in front of her finds helpful. Appointments are available by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so people can choose what suits them. Session times start at 9am with some evening slots available.
She invites people to check how therapy is going and make changes if needed.
Therapeutic approaches and online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful space where the person's experience guides the work. The therapist listens without judgement and supports the person to find their own solutions, which can help with anxiety, self-esteem and relationship challenges.Psychodynamic Therapy looks at patterns that come from earlier relationships and life events. Talking through these patterns can help people understand recurring feelings and behaviours, such as repeated conflict or difficulty trusting others.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. The therapist will discuss different ways of working and decide together which methods fit best with the person's goals and preferences. This is a collaborative conversation and can change as therapy progresses.
Online therapy offers practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from different locations. Phone sessions can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit those who prefer writing or want flexible, brief check-ins between fuller sessions. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to provide regular, ongoing support that fits around daily life.
