About Tina
Tina Curran-Taylor is a licensed mental health counselor who has spent 20 years helping people manage stress and anxiety. She holds LCMHC and LPMHC credentials and practices in Virginia. Tina aims to make the first step toward change feel manageable and clear for someone who is worried or overwhelmed.
She focuses on practical support for anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes. Sessions are conversational and patient.
Background and approach
She encourages people to name what feels hardest and to try small steps that build confidence. Tina uses approaches that center the client and address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try new reactions.
Motivational Interviewing is used to explore ambivalence and strengthen commitment to change. Her style is collaborative and nonjudgmental. People can expect a steady pace and clear options rather than quick fixes.
She pays attention to family of origin issues, communication problems, control issues, and feelings like guilt, shame, and abandonment when they come up. Over two decades she has worked with mood disorders, panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, and challenges related to life purpose and forgiveness. Tina also has experience with veteran and armed forces issues and substance-related concerns.
She offers sessions in English and practices in Virginia.
How Tina’s Approaches Work Online
Tina uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow what matters most to the person in front of her, offering a supportive space and listening closely to each concern. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and tests small changes to see what helps with anxiety and mood problems.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Tina will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are like in-person visits and allow face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let someone send updates or work through thoughts between longer sessions, which can help with keeping momentum and fitting therapy into a busy day.
