Tara McGrath
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
My clients are typically LGBTQIA+ professionals in their 30s and 40s who are struggling with some aspects of relationships or dating, and with their own self-worth, often because of a conservative, religious upbringing. I help people learn to manage anxiety and improve their relationships with others, and we go beyond just scratching the surface. Some of my clients are in the process of coming out for the first time. Many are experiencing the aftermath of religious harm or religious trauma. Many are trans folks in the process of their transition.
