Tara shares how burnout, chronic illness, and building school-based wellness centers pushed her to rethink what genuine support and prevention look like\u2014for students, educators, and now adults in private practice. Key topics include: \u2705 What \u201cintegrative mental health\u201d really means in practice (mind, body, and spiritual care in one room) \u2705 Burnout in public education and what Tara learned leading school counselors through COVID \u2705 How school-based wellness centers in Vermont and San Francisco shaped her vision \u2705 The transition from school counseling to private practice and founding The Sanctuary \u2705 Supporting mostly middle-aged women navigating identity shifts, parenting, careers, and chronic stress \u2705 Using movement, meditation, and somatic practices alongside traditional mental health tools \u2705 Why Tara chose to take insurance and offer a sliding scale to keep care accessible in Vermont If you\u2019re curious about how mental health, movement, and community can live under one roof, this conversation offers both a personal story and a model for what more humane support can look like.
