Tell us a bit about you:
Tara Kate Arts Therapy was established in 2017 by Tara, Inclusive Arts Therapist, Visual Artist and Founder. Tara noticed there were barriers for people with disability and those in supported aged care to be involved in meaningful activities that promote wellbeing.
With the support of her extensive qualifications ranging from a bachelor degree in visual arts and design to qualifications in arts therapy, training, disability, business, and health and lifestyle, Tara embarked on bringing arts therapy to the Barossa Valley and surrounding areas.
Since then, Tara has continued to evolve and grow her arts therapy services to support the changing needs of the community, combining her passion to connect people with the power of arts therapy in healing and wellbeing. This includes bringing a new focus and establishment of a space for clients to participate in self-expression in a safe and supportive environment.
