About Tamar

Tamar Romano is a bilingual therapist who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She offers support for self-esteem, communication problems, and feelings of isolation in both English and Spanish.

Background and approach

Tamar is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist - LMFT practicing from New York and brings eight years of clinical experience. She keeps sessions straightforward and calm.

Tamar creates an open space where clients can talk about feelings without judgment. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than complicated jargon.

Tamar uses a mix of approaches to suit each person’s needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to build values-based actions.

Emotionally-Focused and relationship-centered methods guide work on connection and communication. In sessions she helps people set small, doable goals.

Clients practice new habits between meetings and review what works. Tamar pays attention to forgiveness, guilt, self-love, and social anxiety as recurring themes.

She accepts international clients and offers several remote formats. The aim is to make therapy practical and reachable, helping people manage emotions, repair strained connections, and build steady confidence over time.

Approach-focused care delivered online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then commit to small values-based actions. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and low motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on emotional experience and connection, helping people improve communication and repair strained relationships.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tamar will talk with each person about goals and preferences, and together they will try methods that fit best. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust tactics if something does not feel helpful.

Online therapy with Tamar is available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which allows for flexible scheduling and different styles of check-ins. Video sessions let people work face-to-face when bandwidth allows; phone sessions can be a good shorter option or when video is not convenient. Live chat and messaging suit quick check-ins, journaling between sessions, or people who prefer writing. These options make consistent care easier to maintain across time zones and busy schedules.
