About Tina

Tina Resneck is a licensed mental health counselor with 27 years of clinical experience in Washington. She offers a calm, respectful presence for people dealing with identity questions, relationship strains, trauma, and major life changes. Tina focuses on clear, practical steps and honest conversation to help people move forward.

Her work is grounded in compassion and steady support. In session she listens first and tailors the pace to each person.

Background and approach

Tina uses client-centered methods that prioritize what matters most to the individual. She also draws on emotionally-focused techniques to address painful relationship patterns and attachment concerns. When needed, she incorporates EMDR to work with trauma memories and mindfulness skills to manage stress and anxiety.

Her experience includes helping clients with self-esteem, parenting struggles, grief, addiction, mood challenges including depression and bipolar concerns, and everyday pressures like work stress and sleep problems. She also addresses issues such as adoption and foster care, blended family dynamics, caregiver strain, and body image. Tina describes therapy as a collaborative process.

She helps people identify realistic goals, practice new ways of communicating, and build routines that support emotional health. Her style is practical and steady rather than overly technical. People who choose her can expect straightforward, compassionate care and a focus on skills they can use between sessions.

She works with each person to find approaches that fit their life and values.

Therapeutic approaches and what they offer online

Tina uses client-centered therapy to place the person’s experience at the center of work. That means sessions focus on the client’s priorities and the therapist reflects back what matters most. It helps people clarify goals and feel heard.

She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to address patterns in close relationships. EFT helps identify negative interaction cycles and supports new emotional responses that can improve connection and reduce conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tina will discuss methods, try techniques, and adjust things based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. Decisions about using EMDR, mindfulness exercises, or other tools happen collaboratively.

Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it possible to fit sessions around work, parenting, or caregiving responsibilities. The variety of formats also lets people choose what feels most comfortable for talking through sensitive topics or practicing skills between meetings.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)

Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.

Existential Therapy

Takes the larger questions seriously: meaning, choice, mortality, responsibility. Suited to periods when the difficulty is less a symptom than a sense that something has to change.
