Coaching Teens to Confidently Navigate
Their Path to Post-Secondary Education
Hi, I'm Tara
I’m really glad you’re here 😊.
If you’re like many of the parents I’ve worked with, you care deeply about your teen and want them to feel confident, fulfilled, and excited about their postsecondary future.
But you also know how challenging it can be to support them when the world they’re growing up in feels so different from the one we experienced. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure about how to help your teen navigate their next steps beyond high school — don’t worry. You’ve come to the right place. Together, we can empower your teen to embrace who they are and confidently chart their path forward.

A Bit About Me
My journey hasn’t always been easy. I wasn’t born knowing how to do any of this. I had to learn from my mistakes, find the strength to ask for help, and figure out how to support myself while pursuing my education.
There were times I doubted myself—like when I was told that I shouldn’t have graduated high school and I wasn’t smart enough to achieve my goals. But I turned those moments into fuel for my growth, and through the support of mentors who saw something in me, I kept moving forward.
Now, with over 25 years of experience helping students, I’ve dedicated my life to guiding teens through their own self-discovery and helping them transition into post-secondary education with clarity and confidence.

How I've Helped
Throughout my career, I’ve helped countless students transform their challenges into victories.
I’ve seen hundreds of young people go from feeling unsure of their future to thriving in their ideal post-secondary programs, all because they had the right guidance and support.
But, your teens won't achieve their greatest success without YOU.
It's always been in my nature to help families by encouraging more closeness and understanding to help parents and teens relate with greater ease and trust.
And while I’ve been recognized for my work, the greatest accomplishment for me has always been witnessing the transformation in my students as they step into their potential.
But there’s more to my story—click below to learn how I can help your teen do the same.

I can't say enough good things about Tara. She’s tasked focus, has school connections, is a strong advocate for our kids, is great interacting with our youth and has a great sense of humour. I really think her greatest asset is she is just so darn positive and the kids on my caseload who’ve met with her all say the same thing and feed of that energy.

How I can Help!
As a parent, you want your teen to feel confident, capable, and ready to take on the world. But let’s face it—there’s a lot of pressure on them (and on you) to get it right. What if they choose the wrong path? What if they feel lost or stuck along the way?
That’s where I come in.
My Ready4Launch program is designed to help teens:
• Discover who they truly are and what they want out of life.
• Make informed, confident choices about their learning journey.
• Gain the resilience and tools they need to thrive—not just in school, but in life.
Ready4Launch gives your teen the space and guidance to explore their options without the fear of “getting it wrong.” I help them navigate these big decisions, so they can avoid the stress, self-doubt and backtracking that comes with choosing a path that isn’t right for them.

Why I'm The Guide You're Looking For
You want to give your teen the best chance at success, but you also know that pushing too hard can create more distance between you and them.
Ready4Launch isn’t just about helping your teen—it’s about supporting you as a parent, too. I understand how delicate the parent-teen relationship can be, especially during these years when your teen is figuring out who they are in this world.
We both know that hovering over your teen, or making decisions for them isn't an effective approach in the long run. Instead, I help create a space where your teen can thrive on their own terms, while you stay in the loop, and feel assured and included in their journey.
My Commitment to YOU
As a parent, you’ve done everything you can to get your child to this point. Now, I’m here to help them take that next big step. I believe in your teen’s potential, and I know that with the right coaching and support, they can achieve more than they ever imagined.
I’m committed to helping you and your teen navigate this critical time in their lives with clarity, confidence, and support. I’ll be there every step of the way, guiding them as they explore who they are and what they’re capable of becoming.
With the right tools and guidance, your teen can create a future that excites them—not just in school, but in life.
