Hi there, I'm Tina!

Tina Luke, LCSW87042, My approach to therapy is ensuring that the client is being heard and that services are tailored to meet the needs of the client. My focus area of practice is Generalized Anxiety, Stress, Depression, Life Changes, Trauma and PTSD.

My approach

I like to use a strength-based approach to allow identifying of strengths of the client to draw from when advancing into sessions. My main approach is cognitive behavioral therapy.

My focus

I work with clients struggling with various forms of anxiety, managing stress, trauma, depression, social and specific phobias, relationships, transitions, self-esteem concerns, life transitions, brief crisis intervention and PTSD.

My communication style

I provide a supportive and creative environment. I create a safe space to allow for vulnerability, transparency, healing and growth. I prefer to let the client guide and set the tone for their individual session when appropriate. I provide a team approach and sessions will feel like teaming, goal planning, creative, safe space for lifelong change.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have over 32 years of working with the public and over 22 years directly in the social work field. I believe in happiness and love for all mankind. I understand the challenges in society and managing daily struggles. I believe everyone at some time in life will need help from someone. I see therapy as one of the best places to turn to for help. Having a safe non judgemental space to talk and work through your problems and challenges is invaluable. My hope is that I can help provide valuable psycho-education, teach coping skills that help to improve the lives of others and end services with lifelong skills to maintain a good balance moving forward.

My goals for you

Goals are developed based on the assessment needs of the client. The client ultimately develops their goals with my guidance and having a clear understanding of their needs.

My first session with you

They should expect to complete an intake assessment and be provided with information about therapy. I will ask what bought them to seek therapy and what their expectations are of the therapist.
