Getting to know Tina Ahmed

Empowerment, safety, and wholeheartedness. These are the values that drive my work. I use a holistic approach to focus on individual strengths and needs. I work to help clients change stuck patterns and feel empowered in their lives, as well as to teach skills for managing mental health symptoms and overwhelming life experiences. My approach I integrate techniques from both ACT and CBT to create a personalized treatment plan. Based on your unique needs, I may include practices like Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to help identify and reshape unhelpful thought patterns, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) uses mindfulness, acceptance, and values exploration. This approach is hands-on and gives you tools to feel more in control of your emotions and behaviors. Together, we’ll identify challenges and work on strategies to help you move forward with confidence. My focus Have you been struggling with anxious thoughts and changes in your life? I work with adults who are managing anxiety, life transitions, and those seeking support in the perinatal period. Whether you’re building coping skills or adjusting to a major change, I’ll work with you to create a plan for growth that feels empowering and achievable. My communication style I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences. If we’re working through something challenging, you can expect me to be grounded and present. My journey to mental healthcare My path to becoming a therapist began with working with children and survivors of domestic violence, where I became passionate about helping others develop resilience. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with people of all ages as they navigate recovery and healing in their lives. After becoming a mother myself, I developed a particular passion for supporting perinatal and postpartum women.
