About Tara

Tara Romanowski is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She combines a warm, down-to-earth style with goal-focused work to help people who are coping with relationship struggles, stress, anxiety, low self-worth, grief, and changes in life. Tara keeps sessions conversational and practical so parents and partners can use what they learn right away.

Her training includes a master’s degree in Marriage, Couple, and Family Counseling, and she draws on therapies that focus on how people connect and tell their stories.

Background and approach

She uses Attachment-Based techniques to look at emotional bonds and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to strengthen closeness. She also uses Client-Centered methods that follow the person’s lead. Tara has four years of professional experience and a relaxed, empathetic approach.

She uses tools like the Enneagram to help people better understand patterns and reactions. She is working toward Gottman Method certification to add more structured couple strategies to her work. In sessions she helps people with communication problems, intimacy-related concerns, commitment and abandonment worries, blended family dynamics, and fatherhood issues.

She also addresses career stress, compassion fatigue, body image, and coping after illness or loss. Tara aims to build a clear plan with each person so progress is practical and measurable. Her focus on family and parenting themes means she often links relationship patterns to everyday routines and roles.

She welcomes straightforward conversations about goals and next steps.

Online approaches that focus on connection and change

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how emotional bonds form and how they influence current relationships. It helps people notice patterns that come from early connections and learn new ways to feel safer and more connected in partnerships. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) is aimed at strengthening emotional bonds between partners by identifying key interaction patterns and shifting them toward more supported responses. It is often used for intimacy struggles and improving closeness. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the room, using active listening and empathy to help people find their own solutions and build self-understanding.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tara collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She blends approaches when helpful and checks in regularly so the plan stays aligned with changing needs.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging makes therapy more flexible for busy families and people juggling schedules. These formats allow sessions to happen from home or between activities, and they support different communication preferences. Together the therapist and client can pick the format that best supports steady progress and fits daily life.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
