Clients say this provider is
My own experiences shaped my style as a therapist because I learned how valuable the connection formed through the therapeutic relationship can be. I am direct, yet compassionate and my clients know that I can be counted on to respond genuinely and allow them to feel understood. Together we will explore emotions and identify patterns of thinking and behaving that drive you using a strengths-based therapy style that focuses on lifestyle habits, self-care, spiritual connection, social support, mental and emotional health. Are you experiencing relationship problems, such as ongoing conflict, trust issues or feeling distant? If you are, there is help and hope. Through a process of improving your communication, learning how to have productive conflict resolution and improving the friendship and connection in your partnership; you can have a close, loving relationship. For couples, I will guide you through the challenges you face during various life transitions; a betrayal in the relationship, the challenges of having a blended family, going through a divorce, and co-parenting, as well as difficulties in getting on the same page.
In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy and together we will set clear, specific goal that will help you to achieve balance and feeling better. I will often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to assess what thoughts you are having and why. After that I will use a Solution Focused approach to begin to bring more enjoyment in your life.
I enjoy working with couples, families, and individuals. I have a strength based therapy style that focuses on the whole person including physical, spirtual, social, mental and emotional areas of life. We will explore your goals and emotions to identify patterns of thinking and work to change the things that are causing stress.

Tina is great! She's a great 3rd party unbiased observer/therapist that is helping my wife and I communicate better during a challenging time. She goes above and beyond. We'll continue working with Tina 100%.

We really enjoyed our first session with Tina. She provided a safe space for us to discuss what's been going on, and provided us with some tools that we can start implementing on our day to day. Looking forward to our work together.
