Welcome! I am Dr. Tara Ross-Barksdale. I am a licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia with nearly 11 years of licensed experience working with individuals, couples, and families, but a total of 20 years servicing individuals with mental health challenges. I strongly believe in building trust and rapport with my clients to ensure a space of comfort and safety. Some areas of focus are anxiety, depression, stress, and anger management. As I get to know each client, I actively help them better understand their symptoms and learn ways to improve their lives and relationships with others.
While providing honest, transparent, empathetic, and collaborative communication. I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space for you to share openly.
Once we identify what you’d like to get out of the counseling process, we can identify specific strategies to help meet those goals.
