Tara Sedov, LICSW

Tara Sedov is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) licensed in Washington and Massachusetts who also serves as a supervisor in both states. She combines clinical social work training with specialized certifications to offer practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, parenting challenges, ADHD, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions.

Tara holds the LICSW credential, which indicates advanced clinical social work licensure, and she is an ADHD-Certified Clinical Services Provider, a Certified Lifespan Integration Therapist, a YogaBody Certified Breath Coach, and a Life Coach. These credentials reflect training in attention and executive function strategies, work with attachment and memory-related patterns, breath-based regulation techniques, and goal-focused coaching.

Her practice emphasizes a person-centered, strengths-based stance that frames therapy as a collaborative partnership. Depending on each person’s needs, she draws from multiple modalities to build coping skills and practical tools that clients can use beyond sessions. Tara works with a wide range of people and stays engaged in continuing education to better support diverse populations, including members of the LGBTQ+ community.

She is also experienced in supporting major life transitions, including decisions about moving abroad, and offers guidance for the adjustments that follow such changes.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Tara integrates a person-centered, strengths-based approach that centers the client’s goals and existing resources - this style helps people build resilience, improve coping, and clarify values during life changes. She also brings ADHD-informed clinical services to her work, offering strategies for attention, organization, and impulsivity that are tailored to daily routines and responsibilities. In addition, Lifespan Integration therapy is part of her toolbox - a relational approach that attends to attachment patterns and life narrative, useful for those working through relationship issues or lingering impacts from earlier experiences.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tara partners with each client to assess needs, experiment with techniques, and adjust the plan so the work fits the client’s goals, preferences, and circumstances.

Online sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging offer flexibility for busy schedules and for clients in different locations. These options make it easier to maintain consistent care during transitions, accommodate caregiving or work commitments, and access licensed professionals without travel constraints.
