IT’S A PLEASURE TO MEET YOU. I’M TARA.

A LIFE-LONG SEEKER COMBINED WITH AN ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDSET
& AN INDOMITABLE SPIRIT

I work as a practitioner for psychological counselling and psychotherapy, as a therapeutic life coach, mindfulness trainer, Enneagram and NLP professional as well as a Business/Leadership Coach and Team Development Facilitator through my company Cresco Coaching.

All my life I’ve been in search of that which I felt to be unknown and which often expressed itself as a gap in my life. The journey towards truth took me to many continents and to various aspects of life both professionally and personally. Born during “The Troubles” in Northern Ireland, I grew up in a society embattled in conflict. I escaped through my interest in Philosophy and other cultures and went on to do a Bachelor’s degree in Philosophy and Anthropology.

In parallel I was building social impact organisations across solar energy, ethical textiles and agriculture and also horse riding while continuing to work as a mentor, coach and consultant to organisations and incubators.

Sharing What I’ve Learnt
After almost 15 years of self-enquiry, I decided it was finally time to listen to my true soul’s calling and share what I know with others as they too begin or continue their paths towards awareness, transformation and happiness – and so I trained as an integrative psychological counsellor and life coach.

I was often alone in my search for inner calmness and joy – but it is my pleasure and my honour to share all that I know and have learned as a guide on your healing path. Whether you are seeking support for mental health concerns, navigating life transitions, or pursuing personal and professional goals, I am here to help you pave the way for a more balanced, purposeful, and meaningful life.
