01About Tina
Tina Okenfuss brings eight years of counseling experience to her Arkansas practice. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor, and she focuses on common but heavy problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and low self-esteem. Tina writes and speaks plainly; her goal is to help people find practical ways to feel steadier and more capable day to day.
She centers sessions on listening first, then on clear, step-by-step plans clients can try between meetings.
Background and approach
Tina combines compassion with direct problem solving so people can practice new habits outside the office. She emphasizes small, realistic changes that add up over time. Her work includes helping people cope with life changes like grief or separation.
Tina also addresses concerns connected to adoption and foster care, caregiving strain, chronic illness, body image, attachment and abandonment issues, and other overlapping difficulties. She pays attention to how several problems interact rather than treating one issue in isolation. Tina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in ways that fit each person’s situation.
Sessions aim to strengthen resilience, improve communication, and rebuild self-worth through practical exercises and honest conversation. The tone is respectful and nonjudgmental, with space for whatever pace feels right. People who prefer straightforward guidance and a collaborative working style often find her approach helpful.
Tina supports each person’s goals and works with them to track progress and adjust plans as needed.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Support
Many evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical change and coping skills. One approach emphasizes building small, repeatable behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood; this helps people manage symptoms in everyday situations. Another approach concentrates on processing trauma and painful memories at a pace the person can tolerate, helping reduce their hold on current life and relationships.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they try options and adjust methods based on how well they fit the person's needs and progress.
Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when travel is difficult. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins or between-session support easier to fit into a busy day. These formats make it simpler to schedule regular sessions and keep momentum between meetings.
