About Tina
Tina Salerno is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Florida with 31 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Tina also supports work on self-esteem, parenting challenges, career questions, ADHD, and financial stress when it affects emotional well-being.
Her style is warm and direct. Sessions focus on practical steps and honest conversation. She blends person-focused listening with tools that help change unhelpful patterns. Clients can expect clear goals and steady support between sessions.
Tina uses several evidence-informed approaches depending on the person and the problem. She draws on client-centered work to build a trusting space, cognitive behavioral techniques to adjust thinking and behavior, and dialectical behavior strategies for emotion regulation. She also employs motivational interviewing to support change and elements of the Gottman Method for relationship concerns.
Over three decades in practice have given her experience with a wide range of life situations - from grief and caregiving stress to mood disorders and substance concerns. She pays attention to how past wounds and attachment patterns affect current choices. Her goal is to help people make practical changes that fit their daily lives.

How her approaches translate to online therapy
Tina commonly uses client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) in her practice. Client-centered work focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship so people can explore what matters to them. CBT looks at thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical skills to change thinking and reactions. DBT offers concrete strategies for regulating intense emotions and improving coping skills, which can help with mood swings, impulsivity, and crisis moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina will collaborate with each person to match methods to their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying an approach, checking how it feels, and adjusting the plan together over time.
The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm available session types before booking. Many people find remote therapy helps fit sessions into busy lives - it can reduce travel time, make scheduling easier around work or caregiving, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn’t needed. Online sessions can also make it easier to continue care across locations when someone is traveling or living abroad. Ask about current options to learn what fits your routine.
