Tavina Hensley

Tavina Hensley is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) who works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and challenges with self-esteem. She helps individuals who are struggling with motivation, relationship concerns, grief, and addictive behaviors. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental, and she aims to meet people where they are. With five years of clinical experience, Tavina builds a plan that fits each person’s needs. She uses straightforward conversation to identify goals and practical steps. Sessions focus on small, manageable changes and clearer ways of coping with day-to-day pressures. Tavina draws from several evidence-based approaches to guide her work. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness practices are offered to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness. She also integrates Client-Centered Therapy to make space for each person’s perspective. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and Motivational Interviewing techniques are used when helpful to improve emotion regulation and strengthen motivation to change. People who feel isolated or alone may find support in her practice. Tavina listens for patterns that maintain loneliness and helps people try new ways of connecting and caring for themselves. She encourages gradual steps and practical habits that fit into everyday life.

How Tavina’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person in the conversation, letting their priorities set the pace and topics in each session. This approach helps people feel heard and shapes goals around what matters most to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing new patterns. CBT is practical for anxiety, depression, and obsessive thoughts because it breaks issues into clear steps people can try between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication. These skills are useful when strong emotions, impulsivity, or relationship stress make daily life harder.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals and comfort level. That choice is adjusted as progress is made and needs change.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling around work and family, fewer travel demands, and the ability to meet from wherever is most convenient. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm available options before booking. Sessions aim to fit into everyday life so new skills and routines can be practiced between meetings.
