01About Tara
Tara High is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Idaho who focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and difficult life changes.

Tara draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Client-Centered approaches to shape her work.
Background and approach
She aims to help people build values-based goals, notice unhelpful thinking patterns, and practice small changes that add up over time. Mindfulness practices are often used to help clients manage strong emotions in the moment. Her background includes a decade of clinical experience working across a wide range of concerns.
She has supported people dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction, depression, bipolar symptoms, and ADHD. Other areas she focuses on include chronic pain or illness, codependency, communication problems, and career or money stress. Tara also brings practical experience supporting parents with behavior concerns and parenting strain, and she uses relationship tools influenced by the Gottman method for intimacy and communication issues.
She is comfortable including faith or spirituality in sessions when that matters to the client. She offers sessions in English and French and provides several online formats to fit different needs. Outside of work she enjoys outdoor time, rock hunting, and spicy food, and she aims to make therapy a realistic, usable part of a busy life.

04Online support
Practical approaches that work well online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small, meaningful steps toward them even when emotions feel intense. ACT is useful for stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting patterns of thinking that keep problems going and testing new behaviors to change results; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience and priorities, offering reflective listening and collaboration to shape next steps.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Tara will work together with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process can include trying a mix of ACT, CBT, mindfulness exercises, or relationship skills and adjusting the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and practice of skills, phone calls can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports short check-ins, and text-based messaging is helpful for brief updates or between-session coaching. These options increase flexibility and make it simpler to keep momentum between sessions.
