About Tara
Tara Prom is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, LICSW, practicing in Minnesota with 11 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, grief, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and trauma and abuse. She also addresses mood concerns like depression and bipolar symptoms and helps people managing life changes and caregiver stress.
Tara uses straightforward conversation to identify what is causing distress. She listens for patterns that feed anger and impulsivity, then helps people try small, practical changes. Sessions focus on clearer thinking, problem solving, and coping skills that can be used between appointments. CBT tools are used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of responding.
When trauma is part of the picture, she combines supportive listening with trauma-focused methods to reduce overwhelming reactions. Tara also draws on client-centered principles, keeping discussions focused on what matters most to the individual. Solution-focused techniques are used to set achievable short-term goals and track progress.
Her approach is direct and pragmatic. People can expect concrete steps and skill practice rather than long abstract talks. The goal is better control over strong emotions, fewer heated conflicts, and improved day-to-day functioning.
She works in Minnesota and conducts sessions in English. Tara asks people to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting to begin. The first sessions are used to clarify goals and choose the most useful tools going forward.
How her approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people clarify goals and feel understood while working through anger and relationship problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to notice thoughts that fuel anger and to try different responses; it is useful for stress, impulsivity, and mood concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, concrete goals and quick changes that can reduce conflict and build new habits.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match the clients goals, needs, and daily life. Early sessions are used to test techniques and adjust plans based on what is helpful.
Session logistics should be checked before booking since specific formats are not listed in the profile. Confirm available online options when you sign up. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into work breaks or caregiving schedules, and some formats can be shorter check-ins when time is tight. The focus is on workable strategies that fit into everyday routines rather than long theoretical sessions.
