Tashar Turner

Life can bring moments of joy, change, uncertainty, and unexpected loss-and you do not have to navigate those moments alone. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience supporting individuals and families through emotional, medical, and life changing circumstances. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and supported. For the past 12 years, I have worked in a hospital setting with women and families receiving care in Maternal-Fetal Medicine, OB Emergency, Labor and Delivery, Mother Baby/Postpartum, and the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. I understand the emotional impact that pregnancy, childbirth, high risk medical concerns, NICU hospitalization, and the postpartum period can have on mothers and their families. I am especially passionate about supporting pregnant and postpartum mothers, NICU mothers and families, individuals coping with pregnancy loss, stillbirth, fetal demise, infertility concerns, maternal health complications, postpartum depression, anxiety, grief, and other women's issues. These experiences can feel overwhelming, isolating, and difficult to explain to others. My role is to meet you with compassion, help you process what you are experiencing, and support you as you work toward healing and emotional wellness. My professional background also includes extensive experience working with older adults, individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, people managing major life transitions, and members of the LGBTQIA+ community. I welcome clients from diverse backgrounds and I am committed to providing inclusive, culturally responsive, and affirming care. My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, person centered, trauma informed, and strengths based. Together, we will identify your concerns, recognize your strengths, develop healthy coping skills, and create realistic goals that support meaningful change. I may incorporate cognitive behavioral strategies, solution focused techniques, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, psychoeducation, crisis intervention, and grief/bereavement support based on your individual needs. Reaching out for support takes courage. Whether you are adjusting to motherhood, facing a difficult pregnancy, grieving a loss, coping with anxiety or depression, caring for a loved one, or simply trying to find your way through a challenging season, I would be honored to walk alongside you. You deserve a space where your story matters, your feelings are valid, and hope can begin to grow.
