Tara Bates, LCSW

Tara Bates, LCSW

Psychotherapist
2150 W 18th St, Ste 300, Houston, TX
Hi there! I'm Tara Bates, and I believe therapy should feel like a relaxed conversation with a friend rather than a formal session. My approach blends cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques, with plenty of humor and realness to make you feel comfortable and at ease. I hold a Master of Social Work (MSW) and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). Over the years, I've had the privilege of working with individuals facing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, ADHD, depression, family relationships, gender identity, grief and bereavement, LGBTQIA+ support, life transitions, military and veteran support, PTSD, intimate and romantic relationships, multicultural and diversity issues, sex and intimacy issues, and stress. We’ll work together to create a treatment plan tailored to your unique goals, with practical steps that fit your life. Change can be tough, but you don't have to go through it alone. Life is full of choices, and I’m here to help you explore the options that lead to your happiness. Outside of my professional life, I enjoy traveling and learning about new cultures. These interests help me stay grounded and bring a well-rounded perspective to my practice. I look forward to partnering with you on this journey! Let's take the first step together.
