About Tina

Tina Owen is a clinical social worker licensed in Louisiana and Rhode Island. She has seven years of formal clinical experience as an LICSW and LCSW and more than two decades of overall work in behavioral health settings. Tina takes a straightforward, down-to-earth approach in sessions and aims to make people feel heard and understood.

Her style is relaxed and often includes warmth, gentle humor, and affirmation. She focuses heavily on trauma processing, helping people work through effects of post-traumatic stress and histories of interpersonal abuse.

Background and approach

Grief support is another focus, including grief related to pet loss. Tina also works with adults who have ADHD and adults on the autism spectrum, and she describes herself as neurodivergent-affirming and LGBTQIA+ affirming. She offers a nonjudgmental space for people who feel out of place or disconnected.

Clinically she uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs, including cognitive behavioral strategies and trauma-focused work. She and the client set goals together and pick methods that suit those goals. Tina’s practice is practical and person-centered.

She helps people name problems, try manageable changes, and track progress. Sessions are intended to be a steady place to process hard experiences and build skills for daily life.

How therapeutic approaches work online

Tina uses cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT involves identifying patterns that keep problems going and practicing small changes to see what helps. Trauma-focused therapy offers ways to safely process traumatic memories and reduce their impact on daily life.

She also draws on elements of dialectical behavior therapy and motivational interviewing when useful. DBT skills teach practical tools for managing intense emotions and improving relationships. Motivational interviewing supports people who feel stuck by clarifying their own reasons for change and building confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Tina will discuss options and adapt methods based on a client's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps identify which techniques feel most useful over time.

Online therapy with Tina is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions let you work face-to-face and use visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a brief check-in. Live chat and text messaging provide flexibility for quick reflections or support between calls.
