Background and approach
Expect clear, direct conversations and tools you can try between sessions. Her approach blends several evidence-based methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking and create values-driven action.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas help with emotion regulation and coping during intense moments. Client-centered values guide the work, so sessions are shaped around what matters most to the individual. Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements are used when relationships and attachment issues are central to the concern.
The work aims to be practical, goal-oriented, and respectful of each person's pace. Tinna has seven years of professional experience and holds the LSCSW credential, Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker. She practices in Kansas and conducts sessions in English.
Her aim is to support people as they make meaningful, manageable changes in their lives.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Tinna often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take small, meaningful steps toward them while learning to make space for difficult feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work together with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That collaborative process includes trying strategies, checking what helps, and adjusting plans as needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and teaching skills. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions, share short updates, or get brief coaching when schedules are tight. These options aim to make regular work on goals more flexible and easier to fit into day-to-day life.
