About me

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Mexico who has offered direct care for about 15 years. I have worked with clients with a variety of backgrounds and experiences including complex trauma, mental health concerns, life adjustments, coping disorders and / or substance abuse.

My approach is client centered and insight driven. Using a blend of techniques that suit your interests, I may offer cognitive behavioral, psychodynamic, psycho- educational, mindfulness, self- compassion, and or somatic therapies to explore belief systems and resolve presenting conflict.

I applaud your willingness to talk to someone about your experiences. I believe you are the expert in your own life, and I welcome the opportunity to assist you in problem solving or perspective shifting. I look forward to speaking with you.

Tina listens compassionately and responds with nonjudgmental feedback. She has encouraged me to take the time to feel what I am feeling and helps me express what I can't on my own.

Written on Jun 25, 2023 after therapy with Tina for 7 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, depression, coping with life changes, and grief

Tina offers such keen insight into my thoughts and behaviors, and she’s really focused on what I’m saying, even when I feel I’ve been a little vague or when I feel I’m not making sense. I am so grateful to have matched with her, to be working with her, and to be learning so much from her keen insights. I love her very tangible and fun analogies to put ideas into perspective.

Tina has been very kind and offers great advice and perspective. I learn a lot from her and have benefitted from her help so much!

Written on Mar 23, 2023 after therapy with Tina for 3 weeks on issues concerning stress, anxiety, self esteem, career difficulties, coping with life changes, coaching, and compassion fatigue

I signed up for sessions with Better Help with no clear "big problem" but rather just this general commitment to needing to make changes in my life and thought that therapy could help. Tina was patient and encouraging as we just began talking and was able to help me identify patterns and behaviors that were consistently keeping me stuck. It did not take long for me to be in a place of awareness and having an ability to start making changes. What has taken me years of "intentionality toward becoming more self aware" on my own I was able to breakthrough in a matter of weeks with Tina. Very grateful for her compassion, her humanity, and her ability to challenge me without me putting up any defenses!
