My work is dedicated to helping people develop healthy relationships and productive, satisfying lives. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety, anger issues, or a difficult situation, a sense that somehow your life is not working out as you'd like. I have additional extensive training in Sex Therapy and sex addiction. I have been a corporate CEO, and am retired from the USAF with 22 years of service to this great country. It would be my privilege to work with you. Two office locations; Raleigh and Holly Springs. I offer Video Teletherapy and I'm a certified distance counselor.

I work with couples who: are getting married and would like pre-marital counseling, couples who have experienced an infidelity and are trying to heal, couples who are thinking of transitioning out of a marriage and would like guidance, and couples who want to remain in a relationship but are fighting constantly. I also practice sex therapy. I help couples cultivate increased sexual intimacy and learn how to have more fulfilling sex.

Feeling lost in the sea of therapists online? You do not want to book an intake and tell someone your whole life story only to realize a few sessions in that they are just nodding, not saying much and you don't click. So, are we going to talk about feelings? Sure. And, I believe in a no nonsense approach to therapy. I will hold you accountable to create the change you want to see in your life. Whether we meet in my office, go for a walk outdoors, or have a virtual session, my aim is to provide a safe and supportive space where meaningful change and healing can happen.

I provide an emotionally safe space where you will find compassion and support. Through our therapeutic relationship, we will discover new ways to build upon your inherent strengths, identify your struggles, and then dig deeper to gain a better understanding of who you are. Above all, my job is to ensure that you feel heard and understood.

Need more balance in your life? I love to help people reconnect with life, to find that inner peace and calm in the day to day. I offer services that are faith-based or secular in theory. I use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach, along with Mindfulness, EMDR and Dialectical Behavior Therapy approaches (DBT). I am a board certified Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in NC. I enjoy working with individuals and couples. I specialize in working with those suffering with depression, anger management issues, anxiety, trauma-big or small, and marital, parenting and other relationship issues.

There are many reasons people seek counseling, but regardless of the reasons, I believe that enhanced awareness and acceptance are pivotal to understanding how personal histories have shaped the way we perceive ourselves, others, and the environment in which we function. Therapy provides the opportunity for growth, self-discovery, and insight in an emotionally supportive environment. Each client is unique in their strengths and struggles which is why therapeutic approaches are individually tailored for an optimally successful experience.

At LifeCare Counseling & Coaching, we are passionate about serving others by integrating the best psychiatric and mental health practices as well as spiritual care for the soul. Our team of licensed practitioners provide therapeutic services to individuals, couples, and families of all kinds. We are a multi-site practice located at the Raleigh/Cary border, Wake Forest, Brier Creek, Holly Springs, Chapel Hill, the Triad area and Wilmington. In addition, many of our providers offer online therapy and we have interns who offer counseling on a sliding scale.

Tara has an energetic laugh that puts clients at ease and enjoys playfully incorporating her love of sarcasm into her work with her clients. She has been known to lovingly call people out on their “bologna” when she hears it and is a great accountability partner. Tara is also incredibly empathetic and provides a warm and safe environment and a quiet listening ear when the situation calls for it. Noticing and reading nonverbal communication and body language is a skill Tara possesses in spades so she often learns a lot even from things that go unsaid. Tara is judgement free and she encourages you to be genuine and authentic.

Are you wanting to begin or restart your therapy journey? Are you hoping to understand more about yourself and create positive changes to enjoy your life more fully? We are made up of thoughts and behaviors, as well as pre-determined biases and beliefs, from our experience in life. As we navigate life, these areas may start to change. The internal wants/needs vs external experience of life may become shifted and not entirely in alignment any longer. This can cause anxiety, obsessive behaviors, disordered thinking/acting, and lack of connection with ourselves, in addition to many other symptoms of mental health unmet needs.

If you are feeling resistant, frustrated, or uncertain about what next steps to take to feel better, then I can help you get started in an experienced, judge-free, comfortable setting. If anger, anxiety, depression, OCD, ADHD, traumatic events, oppositional children, interpersonal conflicts, workplace issues, or bullying is getting in your way of happiness, I can guide you to overcome these challenges. I also help people who are satisfied with their current situation but would like to enhance skills and live at their fullest potential. I look forward to you contacting me at www.meaningfultransformation.com/mike

Accepting New Clients with Open Availability. Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. It can be painful when our relationships are struggling, building resentment, and unhappy. We may feel unappreciated and stuck.
