Tina Schumacher

My communication style

I like to communicate in a style that will leave you feeling heard, comfortable, and understood. My goal is to provide compassion, patience, encouragement, feedback, and authenticity to create a trusting therapeutic relationship. I have a laid-back personality style and want clients to feel comfortable being themselves.

My journey to mental healthcare

My drive to do this work comes from interactions with clients—their stories, motivation, setbacks, and breakthroughs. I wanted to help people feel better about themselves and lead more fulfilling lives. Mental health is health, and so many people need support but don't take the next step.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting is collaborative. We'll work together to identify what you want to accomplish and the steps to get there. We'll track progress and make adjustments as needed.

Our first session

The first session involves information gathering to help me understand how you've been feeling and your concerns. We'll also discuss previous therapy and present information like your hobbies or interests. My goal is to listen to understand, build a connection, and get a sense of where we go next.
