About me

Thanks for taking the time to read my profile! My name is Tarin Bickford and I've been a clinical social worker for more than two decades. In that time, I've worked with children, adults, couples and families as they've dealt with a wide-variety of issues such as trauma, addiction, mental health concerns, intimate partner violence, PTSD and child abuse (as well as many other life-altering issues). My approach to therapy is multi-faceted and I incorporate many modalities into my work (although I primarily use cognitive behavioral, acceptance and commitment and solution-focused therapy). For couples work, I've been specifically trained in PAIRS (Practical Application of Intimate Relationship Skills) counseling and, in addition to that, take a integrative behavioral approach unless another modality is more suitable.

Life for couples and families can be so challenging and I commend you for taking the first step toward a better future. Engaging in the therapeutic process opens windows and doors you didn't even realize were closed. Together we can work on anything that is troubling you so that your family can enjoy life to the fullest. I want to help you become the best versions of yourselves and will do this by fostering a therapeutic relationship built on mutual respect, trust and an abundance of kindness.

Everyone deserves to be safe, happy and well-treated. Let's work together to turn your relationship into exactly what you want it to be.

Tarin is great. She is very attentive and committed to helping. Her gentle demeanor is very calming and especially in couple's counseling she is able to let us focus on the aspects of our relationship that are important to us but also interject her insights in a way that is nhelpful rather than dismissive or overpowering. My wife and I have benefitted greatly from meetung with Tarin!

Tarin is great! My response to the question about responding in a timely manner was an accident; please change it to “strongly agree”! Tarin is always prompt, always kind, always thoughtful, and always full of expertise.
