Tara Borrero, LMHC

Tara Borrero is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and depression. She aims to make first steps feel manageable and supports clients through life changes with steady, practical care.

She spends sessions listening without judgment and creating space to talk about difficult feelings. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client and on small, doable steps to feel better. Tara uses straightforward techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and build healthier routines.

Her work draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and mindfulness practices. That means clients learn simple tools to notice thoughts, practice acceptance, and try actions that match their values. Skills may include short behavioral experiments, grounding exercises, and values-based goal setting.

With three years of experience licensed in Florida, Tara blends gentle curiosity with practical tools. She explains methods in clear language and checks in about what is working. Sessions are meant to be useful day to day, not full of jargon.

People reach out to address communication problems, guilt or shame, feelings of isolation, and trouble with self-love or forgiveness. Tara keeps the focus on the person in front of her and on steps that fit each person’s life. She encourages anyone taking the first step and helps them move forward at a comfortable pace.

How therapeutic approaches suit online sessions

CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and testing them with small experiments. Online sessions can guide clients through homework, thought records, and step-by-step behavior changes that fit daily life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck and then choose actions that match their values; this can be practiced through mindfulness exercises and values-based tasks between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship where the client leads the pace and goals, making it easier to explore what matters most in a collaborative way.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Tara will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels helpful. Together they will try methods that match the client’s needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls let people use visual cues and full conversations, while phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, shorter catch-ups, or times when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit sessions into a busy week and to practice skills where daily life happens.
