Therapy Services for Women Ready to Heal, Grow, and Reconnect

At Mindful Moments LLC in Monmouth Beach, NJ, every service is designed with one woman in mind — you. Whether you're navigating the emotional and physical shifts of perimenopause, carrying the weight of unresolved trauma, or simply feeling like you've lost touch with who you are, this is a space where real, lasting change is possible.

Tara Arhakos, MS, LPC, NCC, RYT200 brings a whole-person approach to therapy — weaving together clinical expertise, somatic practices, and genuine human connection. All services are private pay, allowing for the flexibility, depth, and personalized attention your healing deserves.

Individual Therapy

Heal at the root. Reconnect with yourself. Embrace who you're becoming.

Individual Therapy

Individual Therapy

Individual therapy at Mindful Moments goes beyond surface-level coping. Drawing from CBT, Gestalt therapy, mindfulness, somatic practices, and parts work, sessions are tailored to your unique history, nervous system, and goals. This is especially powerful for women in perimenopause and postmenopause, when hormonal shifts can amplify anxiety, deepen depression, and resurface old wounds.

  • Anxiety & overwhelm 
  • Depression & mood changes 
  • Trauma & past wounds 
  • Perimenopause & postmenopause  
  • Life transitions & identity shifts  
  • Self-worth & caregiver burnout

Somatic & Body-Based Sessions

Your body has been holding the story. These sessions help you release it.

Somatic & Body-Based Sessions

Somatic & Body-Based Sessions

Talk therapy alone doesn't always reach what the body holds. Somatic and body-based sessions use breathwork, gentle movement, guided meditation, and somatic dialogue to work directly with your nervous system — releasing stored trauma and chronic stress at their source. Available as a standalone offering or integrated into your individual therapy for deeper, accelerated healing. 

  • Trauma stored in the body
  • Chronic tension, fatigue & physical stress
  • Nervous system dysregulation
  • Emotional reactivity & disconnection
  • Perimenopause-related anxiety & sleep disruption

Groups & Workshops

Healing is powerful alone. It's transformative in community.

  • Are ready to move beyond managing symptoms and do deeper healing work
  • Value a personalized, whole-person approach that honors mind, body, and lived experience
  • Are seeking a therapist who truly understands the intersection of hormones, trauma, and identity

All services are private pay. Superbills available for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
