About Tara

Tara Fischer is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, ADHD, depression, and a range of family and relationship concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes a holistic view that considers physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual dimensions, aiming to support clients as they pursue greater well-being and personal growth. With six years of experience across multiple care settings, Tara uses a client-centered foundation combined with practical techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and solution-focused methods.

She works with individuals, children, and families, offering an approach that values each person beyond diagnoses or labels and encourages self-exploration and insight. Her background includes work with autism, adoption and foster care issues, trauma and abuse, postpartum and seasonal mood concerns, and other areas such as self-harm, eating issues, and social anxiety.

Clients can expect collaborative care that prioritizes their goals, preferences, and unique life context. Tara brings calm, practical guidance and a commitment to helping people build skills for coping with change, improving relationships, and enhancing self-esteem.

Approaches for Online Support and Skill Building

Client-centered therapy focuses on empathic listening and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients set the pace for exploration and personal growth; it helps people feel heard and supported as they identify goals and make changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns by teaching concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and stress. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, offering tools for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Choosing the most effective approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to learn about their needs, priorities, and preferences and will adjust techniques over time so the plan fits the person's goals and life circumstances.

Online sessions using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for fitting therapy into busy lives and for accessing care from home. These formats allow ongoing skill practice, check-ins between sessions, and options for people who prefer different communication styles, making it easier to maintain consistency and momentum in therapy.
