Tina Resneck

Tina Resneck is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in Washington with 27 years of experience helping people manage anger, anxiety, grief, trauma, and major life changes. She creates an affirming, compassionate space where people can talk through identity concerns, relationship stress, and the fallout of past hurts.

Tina focuses on practical steps clients can use right away. Sessions look at communication, boundary setting, and ways to calm intense feelings. She also helps people notice patterns that keep them stuck and try new ways of responding.

Her work is person-centered and collaborative. Tina listens closely, reflects what she hears, and offers tools from several approaches to fit each person. She uses mindfulness practices to help regulate strong emotions and supports clients as they name and process painful memories.

Tina draws on methods that include emotionally-focused work to improve relating, existential questions about meaning and values, and EMDR for trauma processing when appropriate. She balances emotional work with concrete coaching on career, caregiving stress, and daily coping skills.

Clients who come for help with self-esteem, addiction, parenting strain, or identity concerns will find a steady, nonjudgmental clinician. Tina emphasizes small, achievable changes that build momentum and help people reclaim more calm and confidence in day-to-day life.

How Tina’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s needs and goals at the center. In practice this means the therapist listens deeply, reflects what she hears, and helps clients decide what matters most to work on. It is useful for anger, self-esteem, identity, and relationship concerns.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on patterns in relationships and strong emotional states. It helps people recognize how their feelings drive responses and teaches new ways to connect and repair ruptures in close relationships.

Tina sees finding the right approach as a team effort. She will discuss different methods, try out tools, and adjust the plan based on how clients respond. That shared process helps identify whether more emotion-focused work, mindfulness practices, or trauma processing will be most helpful.

For online therapy logistics, confirm the session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the biography. Many people appreciate online work because it can fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and make follow-up or shorter check-ins easier. Talk with the therapist about pacing, the mix of skills practice and processing, and how sessions can fit into everyday life.
