    About Tavina

    Tavina Hensley is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks in straightforward terms and creates a supportive space for people to talk about motivation, relationship concerns, and life changes. Tavina aims to meet people where they are and help them take the next realistic steps.

    Tavina uses approaches that center the person's goals and choices. She blends client-centered work with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. Motivational Interviewing is part of how she helps people find their own reasons to change.

    Sessions generally start by listening to what matters most to the person. Tavina then shapes the conversation to fit individual needs, whether that looks like building coping skills, addressing patterns tied to attachment and abandonment, or working through grief and guilt. She pays attention to how thoughts, feelings, and behavior interact.

    Tavina also works with issues such as body image, obsessive-compulsive concerns, post-traumatic stress, seasonal mood shifts, and workplace stress. Her approach mixes practical exercises with reflective talk so people can try new strategies between sessions.

    With five years of clinical experience in Kentucky, Tavina emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion. She encourages small steps and helps people set achievable goals that fit their daily lives.

  1. How Tavina uses therapeutic approaches online

    Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their reasons for change and build internal motivation. It focuses on listening and asking questions that reveal what matters to the client and what steps feel doable next.

    Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's perspective and pace. The therapist follows the client's lead, offering empathy and reflection to help people feel heard and understood.

    Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. CBT can be useful for anxiety, depression, obsessions, and workplace stress.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tavina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as different tools are tried and evaluated.

    Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow focused check-ins during breaks. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for scheduling, pacing, and the kinds of tools you want to use.
