About Tina

Tina Beshers is a licensed mental health counselor who centers her work on evidence-informed approaches, with cognitive behavioral therapy among the methods she uses.

Background and approach

With 15 years of clinical experience, she draws on a range of skills to help people manage stress, anxiety, mood concerns, addiction, trauma, and related challenges such as grief, sleep and eating difficulties, parenting stress, and compassion fatigue.

Her practice emphasizes a respectful, affirming stance that supports clients through life transitions, relationship and communication struggles, and issues tied to identity and self-esteem. Tina also addresses complex presentations that include bipolar disorder, ADHD, co-morbidity, and personality or attachment concerns, tailoring interventions to each person's situation and goals.

Licensed in both Florida and Utah, she blends therapies such as acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, and client-centered work to create practical strategies for daily life. Tina welcomes people seeking skills for coping, relapse prevention, or improved emotional regulation, and she collaborates with each client to set priorities and steps forward.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and problematic coping patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and build psychological flexibility by learning to accept difficult emotions while committing to meaningful action. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, respect, and a nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship to support personal growth and self-understanding.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to explore which methods align with their goals, preferences, and the challenges they bring, adjusting techniques over time to find the best fit.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to attend sessions from home, balance appointments with work or caregiving, and maintain continuity during life transitions. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver practical skills, track progress, and adapt session structure to what works best for each client.
