A Gentle Space for Healing After Narcissistic Abuse

Hi, I’m Tara

I support people in gently processing their most vulnerable experiences using integrative, transformative approaches such as Hypnotherapy, NLP, Time Line Therapy®, and Therapeutic Coaching. This work is designed to meet you where you are, without pressure, and with deep respect for your pace and boundaries.

I work with individuals healing from narcissistic relationships that have impacted their sense of self-worth, as well as those navigating childhood trauma, sexual abuse, or prolonged emotional stress. These experiences can quietly shape how you see yourself and relate to the world, often long after the events themselves have passed.

Through gentle yet effective therapeutic methods that move beyond surface-level symptom relief, I guide clients toward meaningful, lasting change. Together, we create a safe and supportive space to explore what has been held inside, allowing the parts of you that need care and understanding to be met with compassion. Over time, this work supports a deeper sense of self-trust, emotional steadiness, and confidence.

The vision behind Tara Therapeutic Coaching (TTC) is to offer a calm, grounding space for those who are hurting—one rooted in acceptance, empathy, and the possibility of healing.

Working Together

Healing from narcissistic abuse requires steadiness, consistency, and a sense of emotional safety. Rather than rushing or offering quick fixes, the way I structure sessions is intentional and designed to support deep, sustainable healing.

Single Session (Initial Only)

This is a single, stand-alone session created as a gentle entry point into the work. It offers space to share your experience without pressure, understand how the relationship has impacted your sense of self, and begin reconnecting with what your nervous system needs to feel safe again. This session also allows you to experience my approach and decide, at your own pace, whether continuing feels aligned. There is no obligation to move forward.

A Gentle Note On Structure

Why I Don’t Offer Ongoing Single Sessions

Healing from narcissistic abuse is not something to dip in and out of. These containers exist to protect your process—so nothing is rushed, nothing is forced, and nothing is left unfinished.

We’ll talk through which option feels right during your initial session. You’re never expected to decide before you’re ready.

You are welcome to book a package directly if you already feel ready.

Clients Share Their Therapeutic Journey

  • "When I started working with Tara, my mental health was at an all time low. Intellectually, I could see how my history was shaping my response to certain situations in my job and personal life, but I couldn't break the patterns. Tara helped me to work through my history, feel it out, empathize with the child who'd gone through so much, and then move forward. She helped me to move on from intellectualizing my past to feeling it in my body and letting it go. Unlike any of the talk therapy sessions that I'd done for years, I was able in the span of a few months with her to learn and practice techniques to self soothe myself and embrace happiness. I am so deeply grateful for the gift she gave me and cannot recommend working with her strongly enough."

    Priyanka

  • “Tara is great and her hypnosis methodology is comparable to psychoanalysis talk therapy but faster and more efficacious.”

    Cathleen

  • "Initially I was skeptical of the hypnosis aspect but as my sessions continued with Tara, it became my safe space. I feel its such a strong tool for healing your deep childhood traumas that you would be a much happier content person by the end of your journey."

    Aakanksha

  • "I really enjoyed the deeply relaxing guided meditations, and my knee pain definitely improved"

    Megan

  • "Tara was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable. I'd never been hypnotized before, but it immediately worked in the first session. She made me feel safe enough to open up about some of my most vulnerable experiences, and helped me reach my inner child and show her real love."

    Gayathri

  • "I've definitely been experiencing more moments of peace and groundedness. It has helped me show up in a way that feels truer to myself and be able to connect with people much better."

  • Hypnotherapy is completely safe and soothing that feels like a natural, relaxed state of focused attention. During hypnotherapy, you remain in control and can exit the state at any time if needed.

    It’s a common misconception that you can get "stuck" in hypnosis. In reality, hypnosis is not a form of sleep or unconsciousness. You are always aware of your surroundings, and if you were to ever feel uncomfortable or need to end the session, you can easily do so.

    The primary goal of hypnotherapy is to help you feel safe, relaxed, and empowered so you can explore and heal emotional or behavioral patterns in a supportive environment.

  • Hypnosis and meditation may seem similar because both involve relaxation and focused attention, but they serve different purposes and work in distinct ways:

    • Hypnosis is a goal-oriented state where the subconscious mind becomes more receptive to suggestions, making it a powerful tool for overcoming fears, rewiring thought patterns, and facilitating deep emotional healing. During hypnosis, the mind is guided into a trance-like state to access and process unconscious beliefs, behaviors, and emotions.

    • Meditation is typically a self-directed practice that encourages mindfulness, awareness, and inner stillness. It helps train the mind to observe thoughts without attachment, promoting relaxation, clarity, and present-moment awareness. Unlike hypnosis, meditation is not designed to introduce suggestions for change but rather to cultivate a state of peace and detachment from thoughts.

    In short, hypnosis is an active therapeutic tool for transformation, while meditation is a passive practice for awareness and mindfulness. Both can be complementary, but hypnosis provides a direct pathway to subconscious change, making it especially effective for emotional healing, stress relief, and personal growth.

  • If there’s something in your past that you feel ashamed or embarrassed about, know that a part of you was acting out of protection. Everything you did was in service of your survival. I am here to support, comfort, and hold space for you so that, together, we can release what no longer serves you. Moving forward, you can step into your life with the understanding that the person you are today is defined by the choices you make from this moment on.

  • What if…

    But what if you could move through that resistance—because you are choosing to address your emotions, knowing it will benefit you? What if this experience could change your life for the better? What if you could navigate those feelings with newfound strength, finally understanding how to experience your emotions in a way that empowers you to break through barriers?

    And even if resistance arises along the way, I am here to support, encourage, and guide you through it. Whatever you’re feeling has a valid reason for being there, and together, we will uncover its purpose. With clarity and collaboration, we will move through any blockages, allowing you to step into the transformation you deserve.

  • The mind-body-emotion connection refers to the way our thoughts, physical sensations, and emotions are deeply intertwined. Our emotions don’t just exist in our minds—they manifest in our bodies through tension, pain, or other physical responses. Likewise, our thoughts can influence how we feel emotionally and physically.

    For example, stress or unresolved emotions can show up as fatigue, headaches, or muscle tension, while positive emotions can create a sense of ease and well-being in the body. Through practices like hypnotherapy, we tap into this connection to process and release emotions in a way that brings both mental and physical relief. By working with the unconscious mind and nervous system, we can rewire old patterns, allowing for greater emotional resilience, clarity, and healing.

  • Your unconscious mind will only reveal what it knows you are ready to handle, as its primary function is to protect you. That’s why, in our sessions, the first and most important step is establishing safety in your body. When you feel secure, you will feel ready to handle the depth of your core emotions, such as deep sadness or overwhelm.

    As you develop emotional regulation tools and adapt to a new more balanced nervous system, you’ll gain the ability to navigate even the most intense feelings. If, for a moment, you feel your heart sink into old intensities of feelings, you’ll recognize it without being consumed by it—because you’ll know how to regulate yourself and move through it with ease.

    This sense of inner safety allows your unconscious mind to release what it has been holding onto, trusting that you are ready to receive its messages. I will guide you through this dialogue between your conscious and unconscious mind, ensuring that you feel supported, safe, and empowered throughout our work together.

  • The first step we take together is establishing safety in your body. No matter what that locked-away feeling holds, you will be equipped and empowered with a toolkit of emotional regulation techniques. This will help you lessen its intensity, befriend it, and gently welcome it into the light—allowing deep healing to take place.

  • Hypnotherapy, or hypnosis, can be highly effective and deeply healing, as it addresses the root of your emotions, allowing the associated symptoms to naturally release. All emotional and behavioral responses stem from learned experiences. Through a therapeutic trance state—similar to guided meditation—we can access forgotten, repressed, or unprocessed memories, releasing their hold on you. This process provides long-term relief by alleviating the emotional charge tied to past experiences, rather than relying solely on talk therapy, which focuses on rationalizing present symptoms. This is why hypnosis and hypnotherapy are especially powerful, facilitating deep, lasting healing.

  • Virtual hypnosis sessions are just as effective as in-person sessions. The process and outcomes remain the same, as the success of hypnosis largely depends on the openness and willingness to engage in the experience. Virtual sessions offer the added benefit of allowing you to be in a comfortable and familiar environment, which can further enhance relaxation. Whether in person or online, the key factors—trust, focus, and connection—are maintained, ensuring a successful session.
