About Tina
Tina Beshers is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 15 years of experience. She works from a narrative-informed perspective and focuses on helping people tell the parts of their story that matter now. Tina aims to make the first steps toward help straightforward and doable.
Tina practices in Florida and meets people where they are. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental space for adults to talk about stress, anxiety, depression, and problems with sleep or eating.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with trauma, substance and behavioral addictions, bipolar symptoms, and compassion fatigue. Clients bring many kinds of life changes and relationship strain. Tina helps people work through grief, parenting stress, communication problems, and questions about identity, including LGBT concerns.
She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment struggles, body image, chronic illness, and caregiver stress. Her approach blends several practical therapies. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take action, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to clarify thinking patterns, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy for emotional regulation skills.
She also uses client-centered techniques to keep sessions focused on each person's priorities. Tina has experience with veterans, older adults, young adults, men, women, and LGBTQ+ people across a range of concerns. She invites people to start by sharing what feels hardest, then builds a plan that fits daily life and goals.
If you prefer remote care, she offers multiple online formats to make scheduling easier.

Online session options
Approaches that translate well to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is about clarifying what matters to you and taking small, practical steps toward those values while learning to notice unhelpful thoughts. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, which can help with depression, sleep and eating issues, and anxiety. Narrative work helps people separate themselves from problem-saturated stories and rewrite parts of their life story that feel stuck, which can be useful for trauma, identity questions, and relationship strain.Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with you about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together you can try different techniques and adjust the plan so sessions match your needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let you work face to face when you want visual cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat or text-based messaging supports brief check-ins, ongoing tracking, or people who prefer typed conversation. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to try approaches that work for you.
