Hi, I’m Tara!
I commend you for taking the first step in your journey of growth and wellness! My name is Tara Donald, I founded Spring Anew Therapy after 10 years of having the pleasure of helping people in the therapeutic space. It is one of my life’s purposes to guide others in their journeys for growth and finding peace and joy in their lives. Whether you are searching for therapy for yourself or for your child, you will be met with acceptance and support.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s degree in Social Work from University of Illinois at Chicago. Throughout my career I’ve had the privilege of helping children, teens, and adults within residential and outpatient settings. I work with individuals ages 5+ who are experiencing challenges with mood disorders, ADHD, attachment issues, parenting challenges, relationship issues, oppositional defiance, self-esteem, and life stressors.
When not at work, you can find me taking nature walks with my husband and son, watching movies, traveling, and doing arts and crafts.

Ages 5-12
Your child may be experiencing emotional dysregulation, meltdowns, low self-esteem, and school and social issues.
With therapy we can strengthen their ability and confidence to handle stressors and triggers. They will learn the tools needed to help them be their best selves!
When working with children, I create a collaborative approach with parents and school staff to work together to help the child succeed and achieve their treatment goals as a team.
Children often learn best and express themselves openly through play, and we can incorporate art and play within the therapeutic space to make the experience more interactive.
Treatment modalities with children include play therapy, CBT, DBT, parent coaching, and client-centered therapy.
