About Tara

Tara Hiller is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 18 years of counseling experience who brings a warm, client-centered approach to her work. She has supported people of all ages through a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family issues, grief, addiction, self-esteem struggles, eating and sleeping problems, and many other life challenges. Her practice also emphasizes areas such as adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, gender dysphoria, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, and multicultural matters.

Hiller has practiced in both private and public sector settings, developing a broad skill set that helps her join clients in practical, goal-oriented work toward healthier patterns and greater well-being. She describes herself as client-centered, prioritizing the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for meaningful change and believing that clients often have a clear sense of what they want and need once barriers are identified and addressed.

In session she integrates evidence-informed methods to meet each person where they are, helping clients recognize obstacles, build effective coping strategies, and move toward values-driven living. As an LMHC, she combines professional training with years of hands-on experience to guide collaborative work aimed at realistic, sustainable progress.

How Therapeutic Approaches Shape Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a supportive, nonjudgmental relationship in which the therapist listens attentively and reflects what matters most to the individual - this approach helps people explore their values and make choices that fit their lives. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance and mindfulness strategies with commitment to personal values, helping individuals reduce avoidance and take actionable steps toward what matters to them, often useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) identifies and shifts unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, offering practical skills for managing symptoms like panic, mood disturbances, and stress.

Determining the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and needs, and adapts methods over time so the work remains relevant and effective. Clients are invited to provide feedback as part of shaping the treatment plan.

Online therapy with licensed professionals offers practical flexibility - sessions can happen by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access therapy from home or work, and use different formats for skill practice, check-ins, or deeper work depending on what the client prefers and what the therapist recommends.
