Hello, and welcome to Better Help! My name is Tina Parcell, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Virginia with over 25 years of experience helping individuals address and overcome life's challenges. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Norfolk State University in Norfolk, Virginia and I am a transplant to Virginia having been raised in Upstate New York. Over the past 25 years as a clinician, my experience has taught me that the most important aspect of receiving help, and benefiting from it, is by far the connection and comfort you feel with the person you choose to share your struggles with. I believe it's very important to be open-minded and non-judgmental when someone shares their personal story or experiences with me. I will tailor our work together and the plan we develop to meet your individual and identified needs. I've worked in many different settings with individuals and families who have a variety of personal issues such as depression, anxiety, stress, family problems, trauma/abuse, relationships/parenting and more. I believe we can all grow through challenging experiences by increasing our self-awareness, and developing realistic strategies that result in desired change.
It takes courage to seek assistance for a more fulfilling and happier life, and to take the first step towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower as you move forward. It would be my privilege to be that person for you.
I look forward to working with you! You are welcome to message me anytime through BetterHelp.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Great help.
Tina is extremely responsive and offers very good advice.
Tina has been a complete blessing on Betterhelp, she is so kind and really takes her role and impact as a counselor seriously. I had never found therapy helpful until I found Tina, I cant thank her enough!!
I have been working with Tina since July 2020. We typically have a video session every week and she always takes the time to check in on me during the week with messaging! I have really enjoyed working with her so far and she provides me with a 3rd party opinion as well as great insight when I present issues to her. She has also sent me useful tools to utilize to cope with my anxiety as well as improve my communication with my husband and my other family members. She is wonderful and I would definitely recommend her!
Tina's a very kind person. I appreciate her encouragement.

Simply put amazing!
Tina is very understanding, non judgmental, caring, supportive, and very focused. She could exactly find out my problem and gave exact on the point required solution. Loved her expertise, her professional attitude. I would again try to connect with her if I need help on my personal issues. Thank you so much Tina.
