My name Ta Mara P. Williams, Licensed Professional Counselor, Certified Substance Abuse Counselor, Entrepreneur, CEO/Boss Lady, and Owner of Ta Mara’s Promise. I didn’t start my life with all of these titles. They are a testament to the hard work it took to get them. As I reflect on my life I am amazed by the twists and turns it has taken. I am not that person who knew from birth what I wanted to do with my life.  Circumstances and choices, both good and bad, guided me to this place where I’m living my dream. 

Now I realize that every challenge, every stumbling block, and every failure has helped me to understand the struggle. I have a firsthand understanding that life is not always “rainbows and sunshine,” and there are storms that can knock you to your knees. I believe it is my job as a therapist to help you see the light in the midst of the darkness.

Working in the mental health field is a sacred act of trust between two people. I believe receiving counseling is the ultimate act of humility. In therapy, a person allows themselves to be vulnerable and expose their lifelong conundrums that have weighed them down for years. 

I believe that counseling is an act of service and should not be taken lightly. At Ta Mara’s Promise, we provide a safe space for you to release the burdens of your everyday life.

Lately, I’ve been working to broaden my horizons. I've realized that mental health care is global, and I want to reach the masses. I am learning to use other avenues to spread the message of positivity, gratitude, and hope.

When I think about who I am, I have had many titles and roles in mental health. Each experience has sharpened my motivational tools to bring light and positivity to the individuals who cross the threshold of Ta Mara’s Promise.

Some of the services we provide at Ta Mara’s Promise are trainings, motivational speaking, clinical supervision for LPC & CSAC licensure, music and art therapy, pet therapy, couples, individual, partner, and group therapy.

Come take your first step towards transformation at Ta Mara’s Promise and renew a spark of light in your life.
