About Tia

Tia Stone is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Texas who draws on five years of clinical experience to support people facing a broad set of emotional and life challenges.

Background and approach

She centers her work on understanding each person’s story and blends evidence-informed methods to help with issues such as depression, anxiety, addictions, career transitions, relationship struggles, grief, trauma, and parenting concerns. Tia emphasizes collaboration and practical skill building so clients can move from feeling stuck to making manageable changes.

Her style is compassionate and nonjudgmental, aimed at helping clients reduce isolation, strengthen self-esteem, and improve communication. Tia uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered techniques to tailor interventions to a person’s needs, while also incorporating motivational interviewing and solution-focused ideas when appropriate.

She frames therapy as a partnership that honors clients’ strengths and supports steady, achievable growth.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and meeting clients where they are; online sessions using this approach focus on creating a collaborative atmosphere in which a person's goals and values guide the work. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets thought patterns and behaviors with structured tools and exercises, making it practical to use techniques like thought records, behavioral experiments, and skill practice during remote sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't worked before to determine whether CBT, client-centered methods, motivational interviewing, or solution-focused strategies - or a combination - best fits a client’s needs. This partnership helps shape a plan that evolves as progress is made.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or to maintain continuity during life changes. These formats support ongoing skill practice, check-ins between meetings, and access to care from different locations while allowing licensed professionals to tailor pacing and tools to each client.
