About Tashina
Tashina Gonzalez is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with six years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes. Tashina works with adults facing issues such as communication problems, divorce and separation, drug and alcohol addiction, seasonal affective disorder, and concerns common to young adults.
In sessions she uses straightforward conversation to identify what is getting in the way day to day. She focuses on practical steps clients can try between meetings, and discusses how thoughts, routines, and relationships affect mood and motivation. The aim is to build clearer coping skills and small habits that make daily life easier.
Tashina adapts discussions and planning to the person in front of her rather than following a fixed script. She listens for what matters most to each person and breaks goals into manageable actions. Progress is tracked in simple, concrete ways so clients can see what changes help.
Her style emphasizes problem solving for immediate concerns as well as planning for longer term goals like stronger self-esteem or a healthier relationship with substances. Tashina speaks English and Spanish, and works from her Texas license. If someone wants to get started she guides them through the next practical steps for scheduling a first session.
Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and fees vary by location. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling an initial appointment.
BHow sessions work
Using evidence-based approaches in remote sessions
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on changing patterns of thought and behavior to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Cognitive approaches look at unhelpful thinking and teach practical ways to challenge and reframe thoughts that increase anxiety or low mood. Behavioral strategies concentrate on small, consistent actions such as activity scheduling or gradual exposure to reduce avoidance and boost motivation.Motivational techniques are often paired with these approaches when substance use or ambivalence about change is present. These methods help clarify personal values, increase readiness for change, and set manageable steps toward healthier choices. Together these approaches aim to give clear tools people can practice between meetings.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide what fits their situation, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying an approach for a few sessions and adjusting based on what helps most.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals use remote work to support ongoing progress while balancing everyday responsibilities.
