About Tina
Tina emphasizes practical work in sessions. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to spot thinking patterns and from mindfulness to build calm and focus. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and dialectical behavior ideas when people need help accepting difficult feelings and building new coping skills.
Her background includes work with veterans, older adults, young adults, teens, men, women, and members of the LGBTQ+ community. That variety informs how she adapts techniques to fit different life situations and needs. She emphasizes clear, real-world strategies rather than jargon.
Tina has supported people dealing with trauma, bipolar concerns, substance issues, relationship stress, grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating problems, and burnout. Sessions focus on practical steps, emotion regulation skills, and goals people can try between meetings.
People who choose her can expect a collaborative process. She works together with each person to set goals, try coping strategies, and check what’s helping. Her approach is straightforward and aimed at helping people feel steadier in daily life.
