"Tara did such a wonderful job helping me identify things that were holding me back, stories I was telling myself, and tightly-held beliefs that kept me in a cycle of high stress and little satisfaction. Now my stress levels are way down, my satisfaction is way up, and taking more time to myself, to enjoy life, to do things I’m passionate about, that inspire me and that really matter to me."

Success Stories

Tara and André have been an invaluable resource in helping my husband and I navigate our relationship. We came to them seeking guidance on communicating effectively and creating trust within the context of an open relationship. Through their insightful questions, thoughtful exercises, and compassionate listening, Tara and André have helped us uncover deeper understanding of each other's needs and insecurities. They pushed us to be vulnerable yet also validated our desires for emotional and sexual autonomy. Their nonjudgmental approach allowed us to feel safe expressing even our most challenging feelings, as well as be comfortable in the particular style of relationship we wanted. As a result of their guidance, my husband and I now communicate with more clarity and empathy. We have developed tools to openly discuss boundaries and desires while also nurturing the closeness and trust at the core of our bond (we truly feel a sense of calm and security in our marriage). We absolutely recommend them for any couple seeking to enhance intimacy, honesty and security within & outside of their relationship.

Coaching with Tara was life-changing. I went into the coaching experience not knowing how it would help me. All I knew was that I wanted my journey in life to look different...but I had no idea how to get there. Tara seemed to know exactly what I needed by our second session and asked the pivotal questions that changed the trajectory of my life! I am forever grateful!

- ANN

When my partner and I realized we had differing views of how we would like to pursue ethical non-monogamy, we sought out the support of Tara to help narrow the gap and move closer to an aligned vision. Tara provided a safe space for us both, asking thought-provoking questions that allowed us to open our minds and think about the situation differently. We walked away with a ton to think about, and a feeling of hope after what had been a tough few days navigating the situation ourselves. So grateful for Tara and her support!.

- RACHEL

I can’t say enough good things about Tara’s relationship coaching! I was being held back by a situation I experienced in my relationship with my primary partner I was having trouble moving past. Tara gave me a framework to look at the situation with fresh eyes, and also advice on how to move forward.

- JEFF

Thank you for working with us! It was an absolute pleasure. I wanted you to let you know, you did an amazing job, you brought a lot of different perspectives and helped us and myself look at things from a completely different perspective.

- PAUL

Thank you so much Tara! Today's session was so encouraging for me to see how far we've come. I really do appreciate all that you've helped us discover and remember about ourselves!

- ADRIANNE

Through working with Tara, I have been slowly learning to appreciate myself and see myself in a more positive light. The values and beliefs work we've done has forced me, in a good way, to think in ways I never have before.
