About Tina
Tina draws on nine years of clinical experience to guide sessions. She listens first to understand what matters most, then helps set realistic goals. Sessions tend to focus on manageable actions people can try between meetings and on ways to reduce recurring stress and anxiety.
Her work covers concerns such as parenting strain, relationship struggles, grief, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, low self-esteem, career questions, and coping with life changes. Tina also addresses compassion fatigue and caregiving stress, plus longer-term issues like avoidant or dependent patterns and problems with communication or commitment.
Tina uses several approaches to shape her conversations, including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She adapts these methods to what each person needs rather than following a single formula.
People who choose her often want practical steps, clear explanations, and encouragement to try new habits. Tina invites prospective clients to consider what matters most to them and to begin with a short matching questionnaire to find a good starting point.

How Tina’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Tina commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus the conversation on what each person says matters most. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and helping clients find their own answers, which can support coping with stress, grief, and relationship concerns.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks down problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavioral experiments that reduce anxiety or improve mood.
Finding the right way to work together is part of the process. Tina will collaborate with each person to decide which approach or combination fits their needs, goals, and preferences rather than locking into a single method from the start.
Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and cutting travel time so sessions fit into busy lives. Online work can make it simpler to check in during a lunch break, to continue care if life shifts, or to use short follow-up conversations alongside regular sessions. Confirm the specific session options available before booking so expectations match how the therapist is currently offering services.
