About Tara

LCSW licensed in Mississippi with 16 years of experience. Tara Fulton-Butzlaff helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationships, self-esteem, motivation, and life changes. She also works with grief, trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, LGBT issues, career and workplace stress, and compassion fatigue.

Tara keeps sessions straightforward and focused on everyday life. She talks through feelings, practical coping strategies, and decisions about next steps. Conversations cover patterns that show up at work, in relationships, and in family of origin issues. She pays attention to how guilt, shame, jealousy, or money worries affect choices.

Clients can expect direct discussion of specific problems like infidelity, commitment concerns, or seasonal mood shifts. Tara uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address symptoms and skills for managing them. She helps people rebuild self-love and repair intimacy-related issues when those come up.

Over her career she has supported people facing grief, workplace challenges, and discrimination. Her approach is collaborative: she listens, identifies practical goals, and suggests strategies to try between sessions. The focus is on what a person wants to change and the concrete steps to get there.

Tara works in Mississippi and conducts sessions in English. The cost varies with location and sessions are billed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions

Many of the techniques Tara uses come from evidence-based therapeutic approaches that focus on present problems and practical skills. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with real-world actions; this helps with anxiety, low mood, and negative self-beliefs. Another common approach focuses on building behavioral skills such as stress management, sleep routines, and activity scheduling to reduce symptoms of depression and seasonal mood changes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client will review goals, try methods, and adjust the plan together. That collaborative process helps match interventions to the person’s needs and preferences rather than relying on a single method from the start.

Confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people have sessions without needing to be on camera or travel to an office, depending on the supported formats. Licensed professionals can work with clients remotely to focus on practical coping skills, relationship issues, and life transitions.
