Tara Stokes

Tara Stokes understands firsthand the challenges of juggling professional success with personal well-being. Previously, she immersed herself in work to avoid confronting her emotions, believing it offered more evident outcomes than her personal life. However, despite achieving her professional goals, Tara found herself unfulfilled and discontented.

Tara reached breaking point in her early thirties while balancing a demanding career and caring for her young family. Her journey through chronic stress, suppressed emotions and desires, while navigating a relationship teetering on the edge of collapse came to a profound turning point. Overcoming potentially debilitating diagnoses, she embarked on a quest to rediscover joy and inner peace in her daily life—a journey as inspiring as it was transformative.

Having traversed diverse professional terrains—from agriculture to mining and community engagement—Tara bore witness to widespread chronic stress and isolation. She observed individuals living out of sync with their authentic selves, struggling to articulate their needs and settling for a mere semblance of contentment. Tara noticed people "shutting down", being overwhelmed by change, stifled by an inability to express themselves emotionally and authentically.

Motivated by these observations, Tara founded Inner Tone, a venture aimed at proactively addressing communication and well-being skills to combat chronic stress, anxiety, mental illness, and suicide. Tara is passionate about encouraging tough conversations, assisting others with self-esteem and communication tools to express their needs and desires effectively. Inner Tone's mission is to restore daily balance, joy, and inner peace through practical skills and interventions.

Tara is currently working with couples using a combination of NLP, Time Line Therapy®, Hypnosis and Tantra to assist them to overcome challenges and reestablish an intimate, caring and fulfilling connection. Her program runs over 8 weeks with tailored and specialised support, which is completely remote with face-to-face sessions online. You can complete the program with your partner from the comfort of your own home, whilst fulfilling family and work commitments. Tara has experience supporting relationship structures of all kinds, including polyamory and same sex relationships.

As a seasoned trainer in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Hypnotherapy, Tara brings a wealth of experience to her role. She has successfully delivered coaching and training services to schools, organisations, and workplaces, leveraging her unique ability to connect with diverse audiences and provide tailored solutions.

By equipping individuals with the skills to build authentic relationships, communicate effectively, and prioritise well-being, Tara empowers organisations to cultivate a positive, supportive environment where everyone can thrive.
