About Tavina

Tavina Hensley is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who helps people coping with stress and anxiety. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth support for worry, low mood, and struggles with motivation and confidence. Her approach aims to make starting therapy less intimidating and more manageable for people taking that first step.

She listens with respect and compassion and adapts conversations to each person's needs. Sessions are collaborative and paced to what feels achievable. Tavina works to translate feelings and problems into clear steps people can use between sessions.

Her work draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Those methods are used to build coping skills, notice thinking patterns, and find small changes that reduce stress and increase motivation.

With five years of experience, she has helped people address issues such as addictions, self-esteem, relationship strain, grief, and life transitions. Tavina also supports concerns like attachment or abandonment wounds, body image, guilt and shame, and workplace stress.

She practices in Kentucky and offers services in English. International clients are accepted. Her work emphasizes practical tools, clear goals, and steady support during difficult life moments.

How therapeutic approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building understanding. The therapist follows the person's lead, reflects feelings, and helps people feel heard as they talk through stress and anxiety.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and creates practical exercises to reduce worry and improve mood.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, adds skills for managing strong emotions and handling difficult situations without acting on impulses. It can be useful for people who struggle with intense reactions, impulsivity, or recurring interpersonal conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and daily routines and then try methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process, and adjustments are made as progress and challenges become clearer.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats the therapist currently provides before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Some formats may also work better when bandwidth or camera use is limited, so checking available options helps match your practical needs to the style of therapy offered.
