About Tina
Tina Brown is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Tennessee with nine years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, anger, parenting challenges, trauma and abuse, and related concerns. Tina invites straightforward conversation and practical steps rather than long lectures or jargon.
In sessions she focuses on uncovering small changes that make everyday life more manageable. She uses clear techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep conversations focused on each person's priorities.
Tina combines short-term, solution-focused work with deeper psychodynamic thinking when clients want to understand long-standing patterns. Motivational Interviewing is part of her approach when people want support making intentional changes. She aims to help clients set realistic goals and track progress in measurable ways.
Her practice addresses a wide range of issues beyond mood and anxiety, including caregiving stress, body image concerns, hoarding, aging and geriatric questions, and challenges around commitment or dependency. She talks with people about career concerns, communication problems, and coping with life changes.
Sessions are practical and directed. Tina encourages small experiments between meetings and reviews what worked. She asks straightforward questions and offers concrete tools clients can use the same week.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the client's goals and perspective. It means the therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps the client shape each session around what matters right now. This approach is useful for building trust and clarifying priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses practical exercises, thought records and behavior experiments to test new ways of responding. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, mood difficulties and social avoidance.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change. It uses focused questions to draw out motivation and make small, achievable steps feel clearer. This method pairs well with other practical strategies when someone wants help setting and keeping goals.
Finding the best fit is part of the work. Tina will collaborate with each person to choose which approaches to try based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That process can include trying short-term, solution-focused work or exploring deeper patterns over time.
If you plan to use online sessions, check the session format options before booking to confirm what is currently offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so sessions are more practical to keep.
