Tina Santiago

My communication style

My style is warm, collaborative, and direct. I value creating a safe space where you feel heard and respected, while also helping you move toward tangible results. Whether you are navigating relationship challenges, life transitions, anxiety, or family dynamics, I am committed to helping you find clarity, confidence, and renewed direction.

My journey to mental healthcare

I kept it local to Washington State and attended Eastern Washington University, then attended graduate School in San Diego, CA, with a degree in counseling psychology in 2012. I have worked in various communities throughout my career. I have been working remotely since 2017 and consider myself a leader in telehealth.

My goals for you

Treatment goals can sometimes be direct guidance from me or collaborative in what best supports the individual's needs week to week.

Our first session

The first therapy session is an opportunity for the therapist and client to begin building a trusting and supportive relationship. During this meeting, the therapist gathers background information about the client's personal history, family, medical and mental health history, current concerns, and any significant life events that can support.
