About Tina

Tina Curran-Taylor is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) and a Licensed Professional Mental Health Counselor (LPMHC) with 20 years of professional experience. She is licensed in North Carolina and Delaware and practices in Virginia. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, depression, and major life changes.

Her work is collaborative and straightforward. Sessions focus on talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and trying practical ways to change what isn't working. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect, and combines that with other approaches aimed at specific problems.

People come to her with a wide range of concerns, including panic attacks, mood disorders, relationship communication problems, family of origin issues, and struggles with guilt or shame. She also supports those questioning life purpose and veterans navigating service-related issues. Addictions including drug and alcohol concerns are included in her experience.

In session she blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Trauma-Focused Therapy where appropriate. That mix is used to identify unhelpful thoughts, build practical coping skills, and address traumatic memories when needed. Conversations are paced to the person's needs and goals.

Her approach aims to be practical and readable rather than technical. New clients are guided through what to expect and what early steps might look like. People who want a clear, conversational way to work on stress, direction, or recovery often seek this style of counseling.

How her approaches are used in online counseling

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what a person says to help them feel understood and to clarify goals. It is useful when someone feels stuck, unsure what matters next, or needs a calm space to sort thoughts.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to shift unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, panic, mood problems, and day-to-day stress by teaching concrete tools to try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to emphasize. This is a collaborative choice that can change as a person makes progress or faces new challenges.

Confirm the current session formats before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Online options can make it easier to fit counseling into a work break, lower travel time, or allow shorter check-in meetings when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises, homework, and trauma-focused techniques to remote sessions while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
