About Tina

Tina Curran-Taylor is a licensed counselor with twenty years of clinical experience. She holds LCMHC and LPMHC credentials and practices in Virginia. Tina focuses on helping people who are overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, depression, and major life changes.

Her work is straightforward and collaborative. She aims to make sessions a place where people can speak openly without judgment. Tina helps clients name what feels stuck, set clear goals, and try practical steps between meetings.

Over two decades she has supported people facing mood and panic symptoms, post-traumatic stress, and challenges like substance use and family-of-origin issues. She also helps with worries about abandonment, communication struggles, guilt and shame, and questions about life purpose.

Tina draws on client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, and trauma-focused practices. In session she listens first, then offers tools and experiments clients can use right away. Progress is tracked in small, manageable steps that match each person's pace.

Her approach emphasizes clarity and collaboration. People looking for help with coping with life changes will find concrete strategies and steady support. To start, prospective clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the available times.

Approaches and how online work can fit

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful relationship. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflecting concerns and priorities to help them feel heard and clear about what they want to change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It breaks problems into small parts and teaches practical skills to reduce anxiety, shift mood, or manage panic symptoms.

Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve mixed feelings about change. It uses short, goal-focused conversations to increase motivation for steps like reducing substance use or starting healthier routines.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which approaches match their needs, goals, and preferences. That choice is reviewed over time and adjusted as progress or obstacles appear.

The original biography did not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make scheduling easier and cut travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins between other commitments and let people use tools and worksheets from home. Ask about available session types when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements fit your routine.
