About Tina
Tina Liu is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York who focuses on helping adults navigate stress, anxiety, and major life changes. She brings four years of clinical experience to her practice and aims to create a space where clients feel seen and understood. Tina uses a warm but direct approach that balances empathy with practical conversation.
Clients often come with relationship struggles, grief, or questions about identity and self-esteem.
Background and approach
Tina listens, asks questions to build insight, and stays alongside people during difficult moments. She also offers gentle challenges when that helps someone move forward. Her background as the child of immigrants shapes how she attends to multicultural concerns and life transitions related to immigration and cultural identity.
She pays attention to family of origin issues, communication patterns, and feelings of isolation that can come from moving between cultural worlds. Tina helps people coping with abandonment, attachment issues, codependency, and commitment concerns. She also supports those dealing with guilt, shame, jealousy, and the emotional effects of divorce and separation.
Pregnancy, childbirth, and post-traumatic stress are other areas she addresses. Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by phone, video call, live chat, or text-based messaging. Her work aims to make progress feel manageable by breaking problems into smaller steps and tailoring the pace to each person.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Many of the techniques Tina uses are practical, evidence-based methods that focus on understanding patterns and building new skills. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replace them with clearer, more useful habits; this can be helpful for anxiety and stress. Another approach centers on attachment and relationships by looking at how early relationships shape current communication and connection; this can help with commitment concerns, jealousy, and codependency.Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together. Tina collaborates with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, history, and how they like to work. She adjusts pace and focus over time so therapy stays relevant and useful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can fit a shorter break in the day or work when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or use a written format to reflect on thoughts and feelings. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and varied schedules.
