About Tara
Tara Prom is a Minnesota LICSW with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on problems like stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship concerns. She also supports people dealing with parenting strain, grief, ADHD, and blended family issues.
Tara uses straightforward conversation to help people sort priorities and manage day-to-day problems. She adapts what they talk about to focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. Sessions typically include checking how things went since the last meeting and trying small changes to test what helps.
Her work draws on client-centered methods that keep the client's perspective central. Tara also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns. When trauma is involved, she uses trauma-focused techniques to address painful memories and reactions.
For someone juggling a new household, co-parenting with an ex, or shifting roles as a stepparent, Tara focuses on concrete skills. She helps people set boundaries, build routines, and manage loyalty conflicts. The aim is to make everyday life more predictable and less tense.
Her approach is direct and practical. She invites clients to try changes between sessions and to report back what worked. To begin, she asks people to pick the online therapy options button, fill out a short matching questionnaire, and schedule the first session.
How Tara uses common approaches in online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's own goals and perspective. In practice this means the therapist follows what matters most to the client and helps clarify options and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses concrete exercises to test new ways of thinking and small behavior changes to reduce anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tara will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals, concerns, and what they prefer. That process can include trying different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress or setbacks occur.
Confirm the available session formats before booking so you know how meetings are arranged. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by cutting travel time and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone attend from a quieter setting or use audio-only if video is difficult. The therapist will discuss practical scheduling and how to make sessions work within daily routines.
