About Tina
Tina Pogorzala is a Florida LMHC - Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 17 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are managing stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, relationship strain, ADHD, anger, and depression. Tina also helps people facing grief, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem struggles, career changes, and coping with life transitions.
She focuses on how family patterns influence current behavior and relationships. Sessions often look at roles people learned growing up and how those roles show up now. Tina uses clear, practical conversations to help clients notice patterns and try different approaches in daily life.
Her work draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, with mindfulness practices introduced as needed. She also uses elements of the Gottman Method when relationship work is part of the focus. Sessions combine short-term skills practice with questions that help clients test new behaviors between meetings.
Tina describes therapy as a collaborative process. She listens to what is most pressing and then outlines concrete steps to address it. Clients can expect direct feedback, simple behavioral experiments, and check-ins about how new strategies are working.
She can support adults dealing with adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, blended family challenges, caregiver stress, communication problems, and related family-of-origin themes. Tina provides faith or Christian-based work only when a client explicitly requests that framing.
Approaches used in remote sessions
Many clients work with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related patterns, and stress management.The Gottman Method focuses on specific communication and interaction skills for people dealing with relationship strain. It emphasizes practical exercises couples can try between sessions to shift patterns of conflict or disconnection.
Mindfulness Therapy offers simple attention practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotion regulation. These practices can be brief and fit into daily routines to support stress and anger management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to choose which methods to use based on goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can be adjusted over time as progress and challenges become clearer.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Talk with the therapist about which session rhythm and length will best fit everyday life and responsibilities.
