About Tara

Tara Schoeller brings 25 years of clinical social work experience to her practice in Georgia, holding an MSW and the credentials LCSW and CSW.

Background and approach

She has worked across schools, clinics, and independent practice settings, and she draws on a range of evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), attachment-based work, and client-centered approaches. Her background includes training that supports practical, strengths-based interventions alongside mindfulness and motivational techniques.

Her style is collaborative, down-to-earth, and nonjudgmental, with an emphasis on building a trusting therapeutic relationship. Tara focuses on clear, goal-oriented work while also helping clients recognize and use their existing strengths.

Areas of concern she addresses include stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, parenting challenges, ADHD, addictions, grief, self-esteem, career issues, depression, and coping with life changes. Tara aims to tailor sessions to each person’s needs, meeting clients where they are and helping them develop self-awareness and practical tools for change.

She accepts international clients and offers a range of session formats to accommodate different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action toward a meaningful life while learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck in them; it can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms and improve coping, which is often useful for depression, anxiety, and impulse-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores relational patterns and how early connections influence current relationships, supporting work on communication, trust, and family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Tara works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She draws from multiple approaches to tailor the work, explaining options and adjusting strategies as progress is made.

Online sessions using video calls, phone conversations, live chat, or text-based messaging make therapy more accessible and flexible for different schedules and circumstances. These formats allow clients to engage in skill-building, reflective exploration, and practical interventions from varied locations while maintaining continuity of care with a licensed professional.
