About Tamar

Tamar Romano is a licensed marriage and family therapist in New York who speaks both English and Spanish. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship tension, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression. She also supports people dealing with communication problems, guilt and shame, forgiveness, social anxiety, and feelings of isolation or loneliness.

Her approach centers on building a warm, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk honestly about what they are feeling. Sessions focus on practical steps and small changes that can make daily life easier. Tamar aims to help people notice patterns that cause pain and try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

She uses methods drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, the Gottman Method, and Client-Centered Therapy. Those methods are used flexibly to match each person’s needs, rather than following a single script.

Clients can expect straightforward conversation, chance to practice new skills, and guidance in repairing or improving important relationships. Tamar emphasizes clear communication and personal values as tools for change.

With eight years of experience, she brings consistent clinical work and a bilingual offering to people in New York and beyond. If you are considering help for loneliness, anxiety, or relationship strain, she encourages taking the next step and getting connected.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on values and small actions that move life in a meaningful direction, and can help with anxiety, low mood, and loneliness.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change them. It is often used for stress, anxiety, and social anxiety to reduce avoidance and increase confidence.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on strengthening emotional connection and understanding in close relationships. It can help people improve communication, repair hurt, and feel safer expressing needs.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and will adapt methods as work progresses. Clients are invited to try techniques and give feedback so the plan fits their life.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are arranged. Online work can make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into busy days. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, and let people connect from wherever they are when timing works best.
