Hi, I’m Tara! I am an Accredited Social Worker and Sex Therapist based in Magandjin/Brisbane and a proudly queer, non-binary, Autistic ADHD’er. I am authentically and unashamedly myself: silly, curious, kind, funny and warm.
At Living Authentically Counselling, I provide LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent affirming individual counselling services for folks seeking support with sexuality, gender identity and expression and neurodivergence. My personal values are self-determination, inclusion, acceptance, authenticity and kindness; and these show up in the way that I practice.
If you are looking for support to explore your sexuality, understand your neurotype, navigate your relationships (including poly, non-monogamous and open relationships), explore the world of kink and BDSM or unpack your gender identity and expression - I would be honoured to hear your story and work with you.
Call or Tara Scott now for a free 15 minute consultation - (07) 2100 4155

I specialise in supporting folks to build healthy relationships, understand enthusiastic consent, explore kinks and fetishes, navigate expansive relationship styles (eg. open, ethical non monogamy, polyamory), reclaim their sexuality after an experience of assault, provide gender affirming sex education and navigate societal stigmas around sex, pleasure and human bodies.
