Tara Al-Taan

People may arrive carrying private shame, or finding themselves overwhelmed or reactive. I’m Tara Al-Taan, and as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in San Diego, California, I help adults with anxiety, trauma-related stress and relationship challenges. Family dynamics and substance use, whether the client’s own or another person’s, are other concerns I work with.

I am trained in trauma-informed and relational approaches. My sessions bring together Somatic Experiencing, Internal Family Systems (IFS) and attachment-based work. The nervous system is supported toward feeling safer and more regulated as we explore patterns gently.

Sessions are warm, steady and collaborative, and my care is culturally responsive and affirming. I shape the work around what each client wants, the pace that suits them and their lived experience.
