About Tina

Tina Argueta is an Arizona-licensed professional counselor with eight years of clinical practice. She is a mother and Nana who brings a warm, direct presence to sessions. Tina focuses on helping people manage anger and related struggles like stress, grief, and relationship strain. She aims to make the first steps toward change feel doable and clear.

In the therapy room she works to create an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be named. Sessions center on practical skills and honest conversation. Tina uses plain language to help people understand patterns that keep them stuck and to try new ways of coping.

Her background includes work with people facing trauma and abuse, LGBTQ issues, addictions, depression, and parenting stress. She also supports those coping with life changes, caregiver burnout, and attachment or communication problems. This range informs a flexible approach to each person’s needs.

Tina draws from several evidence-informed approaches to shape treatment. She blends acceptance and commitment ideas with client-centered listening and cognitive-behavioral techniques. Dialectical skills and EMDR are also part of her toolkit when they fit a person’s goals.

She practices in Arizona and offers services in English. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies by location and availability. To begin, visitors complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How therapy approaches shape online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anger, depression, and coping with major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete tools for shifting unhelpful patterns. That approach is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is a method that can help process traumatic memories and lessen their ongoing emotional impact when it fits a person’s needs.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and help decide which methods match a client’s goals and comfort level. This is collaborative and may change over time as progress is made.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, from shorter check-ins to planning appointments around work and caregiving. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, confirm the current online options before booking. Licensed professionals often use video or phone appointments; ask which formats are available and which best suit your routine and technology. Online care can help people practice skills in day-to-day settings and keep therapy consistent when life gets busy.
