About Tara

LCSW in New York with 24 years of experience, Tara Fulgham helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions. She also focuses on forgiveness, loneliness, and building self-love. Tara speaks English and practices in New York. She asks clients to use a matching questionnaire to schedule an initial session.

Tara keeps sessions direct and practical. She listens for what is most pressing and helps people name manageable next steps. Conversations often include problem-solving for daily stress, strategies to ease anxiety, and ways to cope after loss. She encourages straightforward reflection on self-worth and motivation.

Her approach emphasizes clear communication and gradual progress. Tara aims to reduce overwhelm by breaking concerns into small tasks that fit into everyday life. She helps people practice new habits between sessions and checks in on what is working.

Tara’s work draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques. She uses methods that focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and building coping skills, and she adapts those methods to each person’s situation. The exact techniques are chosen together in early sessions.

To start, users complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Session cost varies with location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. International clients are not accepted; services are offered in English.

Sheet 2

How evidence-based techniques translate to remote sessions

Two common evidence-based approaches she uses are brief cognitive work and skills-focused practice. Cognitive approaches look at patterns of thought that increase anxiety or depression and then test small behavioral experiments to shift those patterns. Skills-focused practice teaches concrete coping tools for stress, grief, and low self-esteem that can be tried between meetings.

Another useful method is behavioral activation - identifying simple activities that increase motivation and mood. This involves setting small, achievable tasks and reviewing progress in session to build momentum and reduce overwhelm.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options in early sessions, try techniques, and adjust based on how the person responds. Clients help set goals and priorities so the work matches their needs and preferences.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography does not list specific formats. Ask about current session options when you select the See online therapy options button. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks, or avoiding the need to be on camera when that is preferable.
