As a master’s level graduate, military wife, and experienced behavior technician with a background in community mental health, I’ve had the privilege of supporting children, teens, and adults from diverse walks of life. My work has allowed me to help individuals navigate challenges such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, trauma, autism, and behavioral issues, as well as life transitions, family conflict, and relationship stress. These experiences have deepened my belief that everyone deserves a safe, understanding space to heal, grow, and rediscover balance.

Allow Me to Introduce Myself, My name Ta Mara P. Williams, Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Substance Abuse Counselor, Entrepreneur, CEO/ Boss Lady, and Owner of Ta Mara’s Promise. I didn’t start my life with all of these titles. I had to work hard for each one of them. Through every challenge, every stumbling block, and every failure I learned to survive in"the struggle."

I believe It is my job as a therapist to help you see the light in the midst of your darkness.

I have a simple approach to therapy: “No one has it all figured out and we all are just winging it”. What that means to me is that, without effective strategies, we are just doing the best we can every day. It is about taking the small moments and recognizing that those small moments build into bigger ones. It is the lens that we view the problem that must be transformed, so we can see ourselves as capable to be the definer of our own life. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Person-Centered approaches to create individualized plans to move your forward in your therapy goals.

A lot of people come into counseling carrying things they’ve had to hold on their own for years grief, men's issues, suicidal ideation, behavioral issues, or simply feeling stuck in life. My goal is to create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves without fear of judgment. I believe healing starts when people feel heard, understood, and supported while also being challenged to grow into the best version of themselves.

The process of therapy is all about change and fulfilling one’s ultimate potential and purpose.

Let's be honest, there are times in life that can be difficult. During these times, it is normal to feel sad, anxious, frustrated, or confused. But it is important to know that you do not have to go through these times alone. I would like to offer a listening ear and be a support to process through these experiences. Mohandas Ghandi said, "strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide to not surrender that is strength." I have worked with children, adolescents, couples, and adults in finding their purpose and strength. Let me help you through this progress.

I offer in-person and telehealth from the Artisan Counseling offices from Wednesday through Saturday at your convenience.
While DBT is the effective foundation of my work, I also draw from approaches that support different emotional and relational needs without straying from a high‑fidelity, skills‑based framework. RO‑DBT can be especially helpful for people who tend to hold things in, work hard to stay in control, or feel disconnected from others. DBT‑C offers children and families tools for navigating big feelings together with more confidence and communication. When anxiety or OCD becomes overwhelming, I use Exposure and Response Prevention (EXRP) in a steady, collaborative way that helps clients face fears at a pace that feels safe and supported.
