Great to meet you!

Hello Headway Team,

My name is Rion Tisino, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW). Thank you for taking the time to review my profile.

I am committed to providing ethical, client-centered care through a strengths-based approach, supporting individuals, couples, and families in achieving meaningful growth and improved well-being. My goal is to create a supportive and collaborative environment where clients feel respected, understood, and empowered throughout their therapeutic journey.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

Warm regards, Rion Tisino, LICSW

My approach to therapy

Over the past 21 years of clinical practice, I have provided ethical and culturally responsive care utilizing a variety of evidence-based and client-centered approaches. My work integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and a strengths-based perspective, alongside multi-systemic, family-oriented, and individualized interventions.

I also incorporate elements of psychoanalytic insight, client-centered therapy, and pragmatic approaches to meet clients where they are and support meaningful, sustainable change. My practice is grounded in delivering services in an unbiased, culturally appropriate manner, ensuring that each client’s unique background, experiences, and values are respected throughout the therapeutic process.

What you can expect from me

I am committed to breaking cycles of recidivism by empowering youth and families to find and strengthen their voices. Through a strengths-based and culturally responsive approach, I help clients challenge cognitive distortions and recognize how modifying their environment can lead to healthier decisions and more positive outcomes. My work focuses on fostering accountability, resilience, and long-term change.
