Getting to know Tara Freiberg
My name is Tara Freiberg, LCMHC. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 10 years as a teacher, where I ran trauma-informed classrooms and integrated social emotional learning. That experience showed me how essential emotional intelligence is for mental health and how powerful it can be to create a safe, supportive environment so people feel free to take risks and learn new things.
The deeper I got into social emotional learning, the more curious I became about the brain and how we grow through connection and self-awareness. I found myself wanting to help people on a more individual level, and that naturally led me to pursue my M.Ed. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of Utah.
Now, I work with a wide range of clients navigating personal and professional challenges, things like parenting, caregiving, life transitions, or career goals. My approach is rooted in curiosity, openness, and the belief that therapy is a powerful form of learning. We come in with all our experiences, wiring, and beliefs, and together we create space to explore new ways of thinking, feeling, and being. I try to foster the same kind of environment in therapy that I did in the classroom: one where people feel safe enough to be themselves, take risks, and try out new ways of approaching life.
Outside of therapy, I spend as much time as I can outdoors. I love hiking, biking, and staying active in nature every day. I have two dogs who keep me moving and a grandbaby I absolutely love spending time with.
If you're ready to explore your next chapter, I would be honored to support you.
