About Tara

Tara Danks is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and parenting concerns, and the everyday challenges that come with life transitions.

Background and approach

Tara also works with clients who are navigating issues related to concentration, memory, and attention, and lists ADHD among her topical areas of focus. Her approach centers on respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care tailored to each person’s circumstances.

Tara emphasizes collaborative planning, shaping conversations and treatment strategies to fit individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all method. She frames seeking therapy as a courageous first step and aims to support and empower clients as they pursue greater wellbeing.

Across a broader range of concerns she attends to matters such as body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, communication difficulties, eating and fertility issues, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, veteran-related matters, mood and trauma symptoms, and perinatal challenges. Tara practices in English and offers multiple online session formats to accommodate different preferences and schedules.

Evidence-Informed Care and Flexible Online Options



Tara draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on concrete skills and collaborative problem solving. One approach emphasizes managing anxiety and stress through practical coping strategies and behavioral changes to reduce worry and improve daily functioning. Another concentrates on attention and focus challenges by teaching organizational routines, strategies for improving concentration, and ways to adapt tasks to individual strengths and limitations.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process, and Tara works together with clients to determine what methods match their goals and preferences. She frames treatment as a collaborative effort, adjusting techniques over time based on what proves most effective for each person’s circumstances.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits in her practice: video calls allow real-time visual interaction, phone sessions provide a convenient audio option, and live chat or text-based messaging can support ongoing reflection and brief check-ins between sessions. These formats increase flexibility and make it easier to fit care into busy lives while allowing licensed professionals to deliver consistent therapeutic support.
