02 · In Tiara's own words

What Tiara says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. Throughout my career, I've worked with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, and the complexities of family relationships. I'm passionate about helping people build self-esteem, find their life purpose, and develop meaningful communication skills.

My approach centers on fostering self-love and compassion as foundations for healing. I work with clients who are struggling with isolation, loneliness, and the weight of past hurts-including supporting them through forgiveness and major life transitions. I believe that meaningful change happens when we feel truly seen and understood.

I'm committed to creating a welcoming, affirming space where you can show up authentically. I honor the full complexity of who you are and the experiences that have shaped you. My goal is to walk alongside you with genuine care and support as you move toward greater peace and purpose in your life.

Taking that first step toward therapy takes courage, and I'm honored to be part of your journey.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Tiara practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Tiara's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

  1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

    BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Tiara at this point.

  2. Naming Tiara specifically

    BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Tiara is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Tiara.

  3. If the caseload is full

    You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

  4. The first conversation

    A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

  5. If the fit is wrong

    Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

04 · Before you commit

2 questions worth asking Tiara

Built from what Tiara actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Tiara's - Tiara has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

  • “With 20 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

    Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

  • “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

    On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

06 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Tiara's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Tiara. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
