About Dina
Dina Rogers is a licensed clinical social worker who draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a core method to help people confront painful experiences and change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She combines practical, skills-based strategies with trauma-focused care to address concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief and loss, anger, self-esteem struggles, and parenting challenges. With six years of clinical experience in Tennessee, she brings a steady, strengths-oriented approach that encourages clients to build on what already serves them.
Rogers emphasizes collaboration, viewing each person as the authority on their own life while offering guidance and tools to navigate disruption and distress. She also addresses related issues like communication problems, guilt and shame, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress, adapting interventions to the needs presented in session.
Her practice centers on helping people take meaningful steps toward greater functioning and wellbeing, acknowledging the courage it takes to begin that process and offering supportive, practical care along the way.
How trauma-focused approaches translate to online care
CBT is presented as a practical, goal-oriented method that helps clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective strategies; it is often used for anxiety, panic attacks, mood challenges, and building coping skills. EMDR is described as a trauma-focused technique that supports processing distressing memories and reducing their emotional intensity when trauma is a central concern. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on understanding the impact of traumatic experiences and developing safety, coping, and regulation skills to improve daily functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That exploratory work includes discussing the rationale for different techniques and adjusting the plan as progress is made so treatment remains responsive and practical.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and preferences. These options make it easier to attend regularly, practice skills between sessions, and maintain continuity of care when in-person meetings are impractical. Licensed professionals can adapt these formats to deliver structured CBT exercises, trauma-focused interventions, and EMDR-informed work when appropriate.
