Tina Gaskell, Therapist & Coach
Helping teens, young adults, and adults overcome anxiety, depression, ADHD, and self-doubt with science-backed therapy and coaching that actually works.
Professional Bio
Hi, I’m Tina Gaskell—a licensed therapist, board certified coach, recovering sales leader and lifelong learner dedicated to helping you feel better, think clearer, and live freer. I specialize in anxiety therapy, ADHD coaching, and self-esteem counseling for teens, young adults, and adults.
Using a mix of CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and neuroscience-informed tools, I help clients move from stuck and overwhelmed to strong, confident, and equipped.
My Approach
Therapy & Coaching That Meets You Where You Are
Warm, Practical, and Rooted in Science
-
Collaborative & client-centered
-
Actionable strategies you can use right away
-
Safe, non-judgmental space to explore and grow
-
Focused on real-life results
Whether we’re navigating overthinking, burnout, or executive dysfunction, we’ll work together to rewrite unhelpful patterns and build lasting change—one small win at a time. (I call those "Biggie Smalls".)
Personal Story and Interests

Beyond the Sessions
I’m proudly Italian-American with dual citizenship, and I bring a multicultural lens to my work. My husband Dr. Steven Gaskell, is a forensic psychologist. Outside of sessions, I can't get enough of the outdoors, I’m an avid cyclist, a former body builder, a fitness junkie and believer in pushing limits—my personal motto is:
“Know your limitations, and then defy them.”
My 2 hilarious dogs run the show:
🐾 Biggs – a 110 lb Great Pyrenees–Border Collie mix (because we wanted "a smaller dog")
🐾 Tucker – a lovable 65 lb mutt made up of 95 breeds
We love driving around in the Bronco in the summer months.
I’m also fortunate they let me live in their house.
