Down-to-Earth Therapy for People Navigating Hard Things

Parenthood. Burnout. Health stress. Grief. Overwhelm. Postpartum.

If you're here, something's likely weighing on you. I offer supportive, evidence-informed psychotherapy- rooted in nursing, realness, and compassion.

Welcome to Mindfully Nursed.

Hi, I'm Tara- a Registered Nurse Psychotherapist, parent, and perpetual coffee reheater.

​

I support people through all kinds of tough seasons: new parenthood, caregiving, health anxiety, burnout and exhaustion, and the quiet chaos of just trying to hold it together.

​

My style is relational, flexible, and practical. We work together at your pace, with full respect for your nervous system, your lived experience, and your story.

​

Window Reflection

Is This You?

You might be:

  • A new parent wondering if what you're feeling is normal

  • Deep in postpartum or navigating the fog of sleepless nights and emotional mood swings

  • A parent in the thick of it- stretched thin and barely hanging on

  • Carrying the invisible weight of caregiving, work, or both and wondering where you went

  • Struck in a loop of overthinking, self-doubt, or stress that won't quit

  • A first responder or nurse who can't just "shake it off"

  • Trying to manage infant feeding, FPIES, or allergy worries while also keeping everyone alive

​

If any of that resonates, you're not alone, and you don't need to carry it alone either.

How I Can Help

Therapy that centres you as a full human being.

Rooted in clinical knowledge and nursing experience

Grounded, curious, collaborative conversations

Room for reflection, relief, and (sometimes) swearing

What Is Nurse Psychotherapy?

As a Registered Nurse Psychotherapist, I offer something a little different.

​

Nurses are trained to see the whole person-

your body, your mind, your story, your environment- and that is how I approach therapy. Our work together blends medical understanding with emotional care, clinical skill and compassion.

​

This isn't cookie-cutter therapy. It's grounded, practical, and deeply human.
