About Tina
Tina uses a mix of practical methods to address stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, trauma, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar disorder. She also helps with relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, grief, sleep and eating troubles, and struggles with self-esteem. Tina lists jealousy among the relationship issues she can address.
Her work draws on therapies that focus on values, skills, and mindful awareness. Sessions often include learning tools for managing strong emotions, changing unhelpful thinking patterns, and taking steady action toward personal goals. She pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions and helps people try different ways of responding.
Tina has experience supporting veterans, older adults, young adults, teens, men, women, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. She describes her approach as nonjudgmental and affirming, aiming to create a space where people feel heard and understood.
If you are ready to begin, Tina encourages a simple start: complete a brief questionnaire, review options, and schedule a first session. She works with each person to find a pace and focus that fits daily life.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Tina uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-driven steps despite hard feelings. ACT is often useful for anxiety, stress, and relationship concerns because it focuses on action more than perfect thinking.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT teaches practical techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors, which can help with mood, anxiety, sleep, and eating issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tina meets people where they are and collaborates on which methods fit their goals and daily life. She listens to preferences, tries out techniques, and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
If you prefer online sessions, confirm the available formats before booking since the profile does not list them explicitly. Many people appreciate online options because they can fit sessions around work, reduce travel time, make it easier to check in during a busy day, or choose a brief phone check-in when bandwidth is limited. Talk with the therapist during intake about what will work best for your schedule and needs.
