I see you, because I am you.

Hello! I'm Tara, a Christian certified life coach specializing in marriage and parenthood.
I'm a wife and mother, too.
I know what it's like to navigate the ups and downs of long-term relationships and married life. "For better or for worse." "Until death do us part." Sounds a bit scary, am I right? It doesn't have to be!
I also know that it's completely normal to feel a sense of confusion, hopelessness, sadness and reluctance when your children are growing up, pushing boundaries or preparing to leave the nest. After all, you have invested so much love, time, and energy into raising them. They are getting older right in front of you and time isn't slowing down.
​
Marriage and parenthood are often not the easiest journeys, but they can simultaneously be the most joyful and rewarding, too!
Think of me as your guide, holding your hand and showing you the proper support and strategy along the way, whenever you feel lost.
Let us help!
I provide a safe and supportive space for you to explore your faith, values, and goals, helping you to align your actions with your beliefs.

Does this sound like you?
​
You're preparing to marry the love of your life, but you're worried and uncertain about how life is going to inevitably change after the wedding.
​
You've been married for years, but for multiple reasons, you've come to an impasse in your relationship with your partner - and you're not sure how to communicate your needs and desires in ways that are clear and understandable.
​
You're the mom of a teenager and struggling with their moodiness and independence. It feels like they're not only growing up - but also growing apart from you.
​
You've raised your kids who are now adults - building new lives, getting married and having kids of their own. You're so proud of who they have become, but you fear being left behind and that they won't need you anymore.
Trust me, I get it.
This is where I come in! Life coaching is a collaborative process between me and you that is designed to help you achieve personal goals, enhance your overall wellbeing, and navigate specific challenges in life through action-oriented steps.
Is coaching the same as therapy?
No, coaching is not the same as therapy and should not take the place of seeing a professional therapist if needed. Coaching is primarily future-oriented, focusing on providing resources and tools to help you reach specific goals. Meanwhile therapy consists of addressing past traumas and mental health.
Together, we will work to guide you in gaining clarity through actionable plans that will get you closer to your goals. You will receive accountability, so that you can stay committed and motivated. You will also increase self-awareness through reflective questioning and feedback.
You will learn how to make decisions that align with your aspirations, improve your relationships by growing in active listening and communication and get empowerment to create the life you desire with the people that you cherish.
