01About Tavina
Tavina Hensley helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, or life changes. She approaches clients with respect and sensitivity and focuses on practical steps that fit each person’s situation. She uses a conversational, person-centered style so clients feel heard.
Sessions are tailored to individual needs and paced to match what a person can handle. Tavina aims to build confidence and clearer thinking through steady support and goal-setting.
Background and approach
Her work uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change patterns. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings feel intense. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change, especially around addictions and motivation struggles.
Meditation and mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to help clients calm intrusive thoughts and manage stress. Narrative approaches can help reframe past events like loss, abandonment, or attachment wounds so they have less power over daily life. With five years of experience and an LPCC credential, she practices in Kentucky and offers care in English.
People report finding the structure and practical tools useful when facing grief, workplace strain, obsessive thoughts, or seasonal mood shifts. Beginning therapy is framed as a step-by-step process. Tavina helps set realistic goals, track progress, and adjust plans as needs change.

04Online support
Practical approaches for online therapy
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation so the client leads what feels most important. It helps when someone needs a calm space to talk through emotions and make decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, and workplace stress.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides short, teachable skills for handling intense emotions and reducing impulsive actions. These skills can be useful for managing crises, strong urges, and relationship struggles.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try techniques, and adjust the plan together so the methods fit the client’s situation and comfort level.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be lower bandwidth, live chat and messaging support brief check-ins or ongoing reflection between meetings. These options give flexibility for different days, schedules, and communication styles so therapy can keep moving forward.
