Tavina Hensley, LPCC

Tavina Hensley is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) who focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, addictions, and relationship concerns. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are, tailoring conversations to each person's needs. Tavina aims to help clients find practical ways to feel more steady and confident in day-to-day life.

Her approach centers on listening first and building a plan together. Tavina blends client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness practices to address unhelpful thinking and habits. She also draws on dialectical behavior strategies and motivational interviewing to support emotional regulation and readiness for change.

In sessions she helps people notice thought patterns and small behaviors that keep problems going. Work may include experimenting with new responses, practicing coping skills, and setting manageable goals. The focus is on useful, real-world changes rather than abstract theory.

Tavina has five years of clinical experience and holds the LPCC credential. She works from Kentucky and offers services in English. She invites people to take the first step and start a conversation about what they want to change.

Her additional focus areas include grief, attachment issues, body image, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, life purpose, obsessive-compulsive concerns, post-traumatic stress, seasonal affective disorder, self-love, forgiveness, and workplace stress. These topics are woven into a personalized plan based on each person's goals.

Approaches that guide online sessions

Tavina uses client-centered therapy to keep the focus on each person's priorities and strengths. This approach means sessions follow the client's lead while the therapist offers reflection and practical tools to move forward.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and everyday habits. CBT work often includes trying small behavior changes, tracking thoughts, and testing new ways of responding to stress or anxiety.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotional regulation or impulsivity is a concern. Those skills teach breathing and grounding techniques, distress tolerance, and steps for improving relationships and decision making.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Tavina will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She helps people try different techniques and updates the plan based on what works and what doesn't.

Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into busy days, allowing shorter check-ins, saving commute time, or choosing an environment that reduces distractions. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to the online setting so progress continues between meetings.
