Psychology on the past
My name is Tara Watts, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Pennsylvania. I have over 20 years of experience working as a clinician, working with individuals, couples, and families. I have worked with clients of varying ages with a broad range of concerns including, support for people living with ADHD, depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting challenges, this includes people who have trauma histories. My therapeutic approach is strength-based, person-centered, solution-focused, and trauma-informed using primarily cognitive-behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing techniques.
I am also committed to continuous education, as I strive to remain consistent with best practices. I strive to meet you where you are and work together to set goals and develop a plan that targets your needs.
I tend to focus on what you are experiencing and the impact on your daily life, not on labels or specific diagnoses; although, diagnosis may be relevant to providing the best care. I understand how labels can be debilitating, but with the right approach, you can experience growth, change, and success.
