Welcome and thank you. Thank you for putting yourself first – ever or perhaps in a long time. Seeking help for your health is a profound step in the healing process and a big part of self-care. I applaud you for this decision.
Are you seeking internal peace and calm amidst the chaos of life? Do you feel like something is missing? Are you struggling? Do you feel misunderstood? Do you want to have stable, healthier, and happier relationships? Are you ready to take the next step? Are you ready to talk to someone who will listen and support you in your journey?
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Tina Marie Suarez. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, with 13 years of counseling experience. I have worked with children, adults, couples, and groups; however, my passion is working one-on-one with adults. I have, over the years, worked in multiple settings ranging from non-profit organizations and residential settings to para-church / church-based and private practice.
My counseling style is eclectic in nature. I primarily work from a Solution-Focused Brief Therapy modality and incorporate Christian Counseling should this be something you are interested in. Additionally, I have utilized Art Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Family System Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Therapy all in a culturally sensitive atmosphere.
I provide counseling in a gentle, relaxed, safe, and nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapists do not; however, magically make the struggle or situation better. It is not easy to look within and explore the raw emotions at the core of why we respond a certain way to the situations around us.
I believe the ability for positive change is inside everyone if you’re willing to look and work for it – and you've come to the right place. The genuine change you seek comes from being honest with yourself and others. Learning and accepting who we are is the first step. If you are struggling, know that there is hope, it does get better, and I can help you take those steps to a new life. I look forward to working with you!
Additional areas of focus: Addictions, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Career difficulties, Depression, Coping with life changes

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tina Suarez. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I was extremely skeptical about starting online therapy, but my experience with Tine Suarez, from the get go, eliminated those concerns. She continually offers strategies to handling problems and stresses. They don't always work, of course, but when they don't she's always ready with another strategy. And I've been astounded with the results. She's attentive, professional, and extremely effective. I can't say enough great things about her and I have no criticisms. She's just great.

Recommend Tina 100%. Best counselor I’ve had, very unfortunate that she was unable to work with me due to my work travels. Better help needs to find a way to allow my counselor to be able to continue sessions with when I am traveling for work.
