About Tinna

Tinna Palmer is a Kansas-licensed LSCSW with seven years of clinical experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, bipolar disorder, depression, trauma, and relationship difficulties. She approaches clients with respect for their expertise in their own lives and emphasizes strengths as a foundation for healing and change.

Background and approach

She also helps with issues such as parenting and family strain, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and ADHD-related challenges. Her work blends evidence-based therapies and a compassionate, client-centered stance.

Tinna uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy to tailor care to each person's needs. She aims to empower clients to take courageous steps toward a more fulfilling life by building skills, clarifying values, and strengthening emotional connection.

Clients can expect a collaborative atmosphere in which Tinna supports goal setting and practical coping strategies while honoring individual strengths and life experience. She provides guidance and encouragement as people move through difficult transitions, address patterns that limit well-being, and develop new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Evidence-Based Approaches for Online Support



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and learn to accept difficult thoughts and feelings so they can move toward meaningful action; it is often useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and it is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on understanding and reshaping emotional responses and interpersonal patterns, which can help with relationship struggles and improving emotional connection.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then adapts techniques and pace so the chosen methods fit the person’s situation and priorities.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, allowing clients to engage from locations that suit their schedules. These formats make it easier to maintain consistency during life transitions, balance work and family demands, and access care without commuting, while still focusing on skill building, emotional processing, and goal-oriented work with a licensed professional.
