About Tina

Tina Peck is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and depression. She uses clear, practical steps in sessions so parents can understand options quickly. Tina works from Utah and speaks English.

She draws on nine years of professional experience and years working with people who have disabilities and addiction histories. Her background includes time as an addiction therapist and work with survivors of domestic violence.

Background and approach

That has shaped a direct, compassionate style that focuses on immediate needs. In sessions she often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at thoughts and actions that keep problems going. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach skills for emotion regulation and coping.

Trauma-Focused Therapy helps people put painful events into context and reduce their impact. Tina aims for practical tools parents can try between sessions. She helps identify small, doable steps for managing mood, cravings, or intense stress.

Conversations are straightforward and move toward solutions that fit a family's daily life. She offers online options including video, phone, chat, and text-based messaging so parents can choose what works best. Getting started is a simple process through the website matching system and scheduling tools.

How Tina’s approaches work online

Tina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing behaviors that keep problems going. CBT sessions often include simple exercises and homework to practice between meetings.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach practical skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping. DBT emphasizes problem-solving, distress tolerance, and building routines that reduce crisis moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tina will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then suggest a path together. The plan can change as needs shift, and she collaborates on what feels most helpful.

Online sessions can happen by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy family schedules. These options make it easier to attend consistently and to use therapy tools in real time. Many people find the flexibility helps them keep momentum between sessions and apply new skills where they live and work.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.

Trauma-Focused Therapy

Work that takes difficult past experience into account and moves at a pace you set, with attention to feeling steady before anything else. Being in your own space can make that easier for some people.
