Hi, I’m Taren.

As above, so below, as within, so without, as the universe, so the soul…

If I were to tell the story of who I am, I’d start with the meaning of my name: Thunder. A Celtic name, like my ancestry— half Celtic, half Phoenician. The rumble. I don’t know if my mother knew that when she named me, but I do feel as if it has prepared me to — as Oriah Mountain Dreamer says — “stand in the center of the fire with you and not shrink back.”

I’m not afraid of storms— yours or mine. I’ve walked through the gauntlet of unlearning, grief, and rebirth. I know the dark places, the heavy moments, the parts of life we often avoid. And I know this: thunder doesn’t come to destroy. It comes to clear the air, to shake the ground just enough to make space for what’s next.

Yes, my work is grounded in extensive trauma-informed training. But more than that, it’s forged in lived experience— in reclaiming my own agency, rewriting my story, and learning to trust the wild wisdom of my body and spirit. That’s why I can stand with you in the storm without flinching, and help you find the ground beneath your feet when the air finally clears.

and, my name means Thunder.

My Philosphy

I believe everything you need is already within you. This work isn’t about fixing or improving you— it’s about clearing the blocks, shedding the conditioning, and coming back into right relationship with your authentic self. Everything else follows.

Your life as a whole is a sacred story — your hobbies, your laughter, your love, your obstacles, your patterns, and your pain. All of it belongs. All of it is important. All of it is a vital part of who you are becoming.

The body holds an innate intelligence, a self-organizing force that knows the way toward harmony and ease when given the right conditions. You are an inner ecosystem, capable of healing and restoring yourself when tended with presence, curiosity, and care.

I value depth over quick fixes, relationship over rigidity, and curiosity over certainty. My role is to create a safe, attuned space where you can explore the depths of your inner world, meet yourself with compassion, and fully inhabit your wholeness.
