Hello, my name is Tina Williams and I am a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, based in Southern California and working with clients statewide via telehealth.

My goal as your therapist is to provide you with support, positive regard, compassion, guidance, a level of accountability, advocacy at times, a listening ear and sound clinical advice to help you find the strength and courage to confront and make sense of difficult emotions and experiences so you can thrive in life.

Hello, I am glad you are seeking support during this time. I see therapy as an honor to be a guest in your life and hope that we can share stories of resilience and strengths to help guide you to where you want to be in your life.
