Getting to know Tara Duque
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master's in Counseling Psychology from National University. I have a passion for working with others to create the best versions of themselves.
My approach
I use various modalities to fit one's unique needs, including CBT, DBT, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems, and Solution Focused Therapy.
My focus
I have experience working with substance use disorders, depression, PTSD, anxiety, and severe mental illness. I have many years of experience working with moderate to severe mental illness among adults and within the aging population. I have previously worked in an inpatient psychiatric hospital, a Full-Service Partnership program, and within the community to support individuals and families who struggle with barriers to mental health.
My communication style
Communication is key, and I like to set a calming tone by actively listening, validating, and using reflective listening. It is important that you feel heard and supported on your journey to personal wellness.
