How Tina’s approaches translate to online work
Tina frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking that lead to stress or depression and then test new, more helpful ways of responding. This approach is practical and often focuses on short-term skill building to manage symptoms and day-to-day challenges.She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can be practiced between sessions and are useful for coping with intense emotions or impulsive behaviors.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is helping and what feels workable in daily life.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online options can make scheduling easier, help fit therapy into a busy day, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about available formats and typical session length when arranging your first appointment.
