About Tina
Tina Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Mississippi who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma and grief. She focuses on everyday problems that get in the way of functioning and feeling like oneself again. Tina emphasizes practical support for people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or burned out.
She uses a mix of approaches that center the person's real-life goals. Sessions tend to focus on building skills, noticing patterns, and testing small changes that can make daily life easier.
Background and approach
She listens closely and works to create a calm, straightforward space for people to talk through what matters to them. Tina draws on nine years of clinical experience helping adults with anger, low self-esteem, workplace issues, and compassion fatigue. Her background includes work with people affected by domestic abuse, trauma, and child welfare concerns.
She encourages self-determination and aims to support practical steps toward stability. People who come for help can expect concrete tools from cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches alongside acceptance-based ideas about living with hard feelings. She also uses client-centered techniques to prioritize the person's perspective and pace.
Sessions often include skill practice and planning for manageable next steps. Tina values encouragement and building resilience. Her goal is to help people regain a sense of control, reduce shame or guilt, and find clearer ways to handle parenting pressures and life transitions.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying values and taking actions that align with them. It can help when difficult thoughts or feelings block people from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to the present moment and gentle noticing of thoughts and sensations to reduce reactivity and improve coping. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different techniques, and adjust based on what fits your needs and preferences. Together you will pick methods that feel useful and manageable rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for regular, in-depth sessions when seeing facial cues helps. Phone calls can work if bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Live chat and text can be used for shorter check-ins, homework reviews, or support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy parenting schedules and daily life.Questions people ask about Tina
