Tara grew up in Ontario for most of her life, a fourth-generation Canadian of Scottish, Irish and Slavic descent. Since childhood, she’s had a profound curiosity about nature, giving her the foundation to appreciate all of life’s creatures and to understand how the body, psyche, environment and spirit work together to either disrupt or promote energy flow.
Tara studied Arts Management at the University of Toronto which prompted an over-10-year
career in corporate policy-advocacy for nonprofits, charities and arts organizations. While supporting Canadian communities through advocacy, she also pursued her studies in Holy Fire Reiki, Shamanic Journeying, Mindfulness and Yin Yoga, leading to a deep vocational understanding of the energetic anatomy of the body - including chakras, the aura, meridian points and interconnectedness of the breath, fascia and movement.
For the last 5 years, Tara has been a Reiki Teacher, passing down a longstanding tradition of informed energy healing - how energy moves through the body, and how anyone can access the gentle and powerful energy within themselves to promote personal wellbeing and
empowerment.
As a client practitioner, her technique utilizes Reiki, mindfulness coaching, and knowledge of
energetic and anatomical systems to unlock dense energy and promote the flow of life-force energy.
She believes that everyone deserves to experience more peace and relaxation in daily life. She supports people who seek more balance in their work, hobbies and family life, or are going through life’s transitions and transformations.
Outside of the practice room, Tara is still creating art, pursuing learning music, playing tennis, going on hikes, and spending her time with the people she loves. You can always catch her with a book on psychology, spirituality or creativity.
