My name is Tara. I am a highly empathetic listener, a mother of two teenagers, sexual abuse survivor, married twice, disabled, pansexual woman. I have years of experience in listening to others and offering comfort and advice. I am LGBTQIA welcoming, woman and femme supporting, and non-religious. I am also supporting of men/mascs who are in the deep work of healing. And though I know as a white woman I am not capable of understanding many Black and POC needs and experiences, I want to welcome any person of color to my space to discuss any issues we share within the queer community, the femme community, and just living in this world. I will respect your boundaries and your truth, and believe your experiences.

I am a horror genre fan, a picky anime fan, I love both gothic and absurdly rainbow aesthetics. I love to eat, and listen to the same song 400 million times. I am deconstructed from Christianity, have a Midwestern dialect, say "ope" a shameful amount of times a day, and love to cook a good meatloaf.

I have major depressive disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, CPTSD, and can relate to multiple issues under those umbrellas.

I look forward to being your listening ear.
