Tara Gould, MSW, LICSW

I am an experienced Clinical Social Worker who enjoys working with children, adolescents, adults and couples to aid them with finding balance in their lives between mind (thoughts/beliefs), body (physical well being) and spirit (emotional well being). This is done by addressing issues like anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, life transitions, trauma, self-esteem and other issues that may present, which can disrupt our overall well being.

I believe in an integrative approach to ones overall well being, with a focus on self-healing through empowered choices and balance. Every person's needs vary and the goal is to create positive transformation through integrative modalities to meet each person where they are at based on self-determination. Some people may need help engaging in more self-care and boundary setting, while others may require more therapeutic interventions to affect behavioral and/or mental health concerns. I am intensively trained in both CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) and hold a certificate in Advanced Clinical Practice for Children, Youth, and Families from Boston College; where I also received my Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work with a concentration in Mental Health. I am trained in multiple other interventions as well, and will work with you to determine which approach fits best for your specific needs. My goal is to help you achieve your goals through the use of evidence-based practices, as well as, integrative and holistic practices to aid with an overall life balance. I believe in a person-centered, strength-based approach in a proactive and positive environment.
