Tara Snyder

Tara is a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) at Stradwick Psychology and Neurofeedback Clinic. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Ottawa and a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from Yorkville University. Tara provides counseling services to clients of all ages with a wide range of presenting concerns including anxiety, depression, interpersonal conflict, self-esteem, and stress. She has experience working with neurodivergent clients with autism and/or ADHD as well as youth who are facing academic or social pressures. With a foundation in CBT, Tara also draws from other evidence-based modalities such as ACT, DBT, and MCT.

Her approach is warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental. When working with children, Tara uses a child-centred, non-directive play therapy approach, allowing children to express themselves, explore their emotions, and work through challenges at their own pace. Tara also has training in sandtray therapy, which offers clients a creative, hands-on way to explore their emotions, experiences, and inner worlds.
