About Tara
Tara Parisi is an LMHC and LCPC with 24 years of clinical experience based in New Hampshire. She lists stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns among her areas of focus and works with issues such as parenting support, career concerns, trauma, panic attacks and mood struggles.
Tara uses straightforward, client-centered work that helps people identify what they want to change and how to get there. She mixes practical strategies with conversational reflection. Sessions often include skill practice, problem solving and regular feedback so people notice progress over time.
Her background includes training in counseling psychology with a concentration in marriage and family work, and long experience seeing adults and teens. Tara draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to address unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to clarify goals and build small, manageable steps forward.
In sessions she listens for what matters most and helps clients connect their strengths to real actions. She checks in about how techniques are working and adjusts plans when needed. Humor and direct, honest talk are part of how she communicates.
Tara encourages people to try a first session and notice whether the approach fits. If someone feels it is not a good match, she will assist in finding another source of support. Her style emphasizes clear goals, steady pacing, and practical tools for daily life.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. Online sessions keep that same emphasis by using straightforward conversation to identify goals and preferences. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches skills to notice and change thought and behavior patterns; online work can include between-session practice and written worksheets to track small changes. Narrative Therapy helps people look at the stories they tell about themselves and consider alternative interpretations; that work often uses discussion and short exercises to reframe problems.Finding the best approach is part of the process. The therapist and client review needs, goals and preferences together and try methods that fit. If something does not feel helpful, they adjust the plan collaboratively so it better matches what the client wants to accomplish.
The practical benefit of working online is that sessions can fit into everyday life more easily. Confirm the current session formats before booking because the biography did not list specific options. Many people find online sessions reduce travel time, make scheduling simpler, and let them use short check-ins or full sessions when life is busy. Licensed professionals adapt tools and homework to the online setting so therapy remains focused and goal oriented.
