About Tina

Tina Brown is a Tennessee licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and major life changes. She focuses on practical steps that make everyday life feel better. Tina encourages small, sustainable shifts rather than quick fixes.

She uses a person-centered approach that starts with listening. Conversations aim to identify what matters most to the client and what gets in the way. Tina blends straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy with solution-focused strategies to build coping skills and reduce overwhelm.

Tina also draws on psychodynamic ideas to look at patterns that repeat over time. When motivation is low, she uses motivational interviewing to clarify values and find realistic next steps. Her approach is interactive - she helps people try things in real life and then adjusts the plan together.

Across nine years of practice, Tina has worked with concerns that include parenting stress, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, self-esteem, career shifts, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses related areas such as caregiver stress, body image, and aging issues.

People meet Tina for steady, goal-focused work and for support through transitions. She invites clients to talk about what they want to change and then helps create a doable path toward those goals. If you want help turning intention into action, she encourages you to reach out and start the conversation.

How Tina’s approaches work in online therapy

Tina often uses client-centered work that focuses on understanding what matters to the individual and building a plan around those priorities. This approach helps people who feel stuck figure out what change would mean for them and what small steps to try next.

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is another tool she uses to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it breaks challenges into concrete skills and experiments to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Tina collaborates with each person to choose techniques that fit their goals and daily life. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan based on what works and what does not.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy schedules, allow short check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with Tina about what would best fit your routine and goals so sessions are useful and manageable.
