About Tinna

Tinna approaches work with a straightforward, respectful style. She starts by listening to each person’s story and strengths.
Background and approach
From there she helps identify small, practical steps toward change. Sessions focus on skills people can use between meetings as well as on understanding feelings and patterns that get in the way. Tinna uses several well-known therapies to guide sessions, including Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, and client-centered techniques.
She draws on dialectical behavior strategies when emotions feel intense or overwhelming. These methods shape conversations and exercises rather than fixed scripts. Clients can expect a collaborative tone.
Tinna sees people as the experts in their lives and aims to build on what already works. She encourages realistic goals and steady progress instead of quick fixes. With seven years of professional experience and the credential LSCSW - Licensed Specialist Clinical Social Worker - she practices in Kansas.

Online support
How her approaches work in online sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and shift patterns in their emotional responses and relationships. Online, this can mean naming difficult feelings, tracking reactions during conversations, and practicing new ways of relating to oneself and others. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match values. In virtual sessions that looks like learning simple exercises to reduce avoidance and build meaningful routines. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and pace, with the therapist offering empathy and reflection rather than direction.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping decisions collaborative and practical.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people see facial cues and hold longer sessions. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a break at work. Live chat and text messaging support short check-ins, between-session coaching, or people who prefer writing over speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines while still using evidence-informed approaches like EFT, ACT, and client-centered work.
