About Tyrina
LCSW Tyrina Phillips is a Florida licensed clinical social worker with 10 years of experience. She focuses on trauma and abuse, addiction and dual diagnosis, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and struggles with stress, anxiety, and self-esteem. Tyrina works from client-centered and cognitive behavioral perspectives and also uses mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative techniques.
She frames therapy as a partnership. Sessions involve talking through current problems, identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and practicing skills to manage symptoms day to day. Motivational interviewing is used when people are weighing change. Narrative work helps people reframe difficult stories about themselves.
Much of Tyrina's background has been with people who face both substance use and mental health challenges, and with those who have experienced trauma. She develops treatment plans for each person and adapts methods to the situation. Mindfulness exercises and CBT tools are commonly taught for stress, anxiety, and mood regulation.
Her style aims to be direct and goal-oriented while remaining responsive to what a person brings to a session. She also incorporates trauma-informed care into assessments and treatment planning. Education includes studies at Lynn University and Barry University in Florida.
People considering work on career questions, relationship strain, compulsive behaviors, or coping with life changes may find relevant experience in her background. Tyrina practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a collaborative relationship where the person's goals guide the work. This approach helps when people want a respectful space to set priorities and make choices about change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises and short homework tasks. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and mood regulation.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the process. Tyrina will help figure out which approaches fit a person's goals and preferences, and she adjusts techniques based on progress and feedback. That makes sessions a collaborative effort rather than a fixed program.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as those details are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for focused check-ins between other commitments. It also makes it possible to practice CBT exercises and mindfulness skills in everyday routines without a major change to plans.
