About Tara Hale

Tara Hale is an integrative counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 7 years of professional experience. She works with a broad range of concerns, including relationship difficulties, grief, compassion fatigue, stress and anxiety, addictions, family and parenting issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, sleep difficulties, anger, self-esteem, career questions, depression, and coping with life changes.

Her practice also addresses more specific themes such as abandonment and attachment issues, caregiver stress, codependency and commitment concerns, communication and control problems, drug and alcohol addiction, family conflict, forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity and jealousy, questions about life purpose, and midlife transitions. Tara brings a particular interest in the mind-body connection, noting how emotional stress can show up as aches, disrupted sleep, or shifts in behaviour that then perpetuate further stress.

She describes her approach as integrative, drawing on client-centered, existential, psychodynamic, and solution-focused therapies to tailor work to each person’s needs. Tara offers both short-term packages - commonly 4, 6, 8, or 12 sessions - and longer-term counselling, and she is open to reviewing progress and adapting the plan as therapy unfolds. Sessions typically begin at 9am with a limited number of later appointments available around 7pm or 8pm.

Tara is a registered member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). Membership of the BACP indicates adherence to a professional code of ethics and practice standards. Currently she is not accepting new clients.
