About Tina
How Tina’s Approaches Work Online
Tina draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify thought patterns and try new behaviors. CBT often focuses on small, testable changes like adjusting sleep or activity and tracking results over time.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal responses. Those skills are practical tools for managing intense feelings and improving day-to-day coping.
Choosing an approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and will suggest strategies that fit current needs. Together they try methods for a few sessions and adjust the plan based on what helps.
Confirm the session formats available before booking, as current options are listed when starting the matching process. Many people find online work helpful for fitting sessions around work, caregiving, or travel. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins, avoid commute time, or meet when energy is limited, while still using CBT and DBT skills in practical ways.
