Great to meet you!

Hello! My name is Tina Gillems, LCSW. I have been providing therapeutic services since 2014. I am currently licensed in Florida, TX, New Jersey, DC, WA, Massachusetts, CA, AR, and Alaska. I have over 17 years of experience with Children and Families, Individual and family therapy, and medical social work. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including, but not limited to depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, DV , LGBTQ and many more.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I like to use the following Evidence based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) Solution Focused therapy, Person-Centered therapy, and Motivational interviewing. Each case is individualized to fit your needs. i strive to be very open and warm providing a must needed safe space. I will treat your experience as your own even if I have had clients with similar concerns.

What you can expect from our first session

My hope is that you feel empowered to develop skills that will be beneficial to your everyday life. Let’s take these steps together as I will be here to support you. You deserve to be happy and loving the best version of your true authentic self. I want to provide a safe space for you to express yourself however you see fit and feel comfortable enough to work through your concerns with me.
