My name is TinaMarie Schmidt. I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). I was born and raised in Washington State. I grew up as a military dependent and later served in the military myself, to include a combat tour in the Gulf War. After completing my service, and marrying my spouse, we settled in Washington State to raise our family.

I earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Pacific Lutheran University and a Master of Social Work from the University of Washington. I have over 18 years of experience in mental health care to include community service, children’s welfare and veteran services and have recently begun retirement from the Department of Veteran Affairs as a direct patient care provider.

In 2019, I relocated to Texas, where I continue my work as a psychotherapist in private practice. While I have extensive experience in trauma, substance use, and working with veterans and first responders, one of my true clinical passions lie in helping individuals navigate life transitions, fear, anxiety, and feelings of overwhelm - particularly as these experiences impact personal relationships. I strive to create a safe, supportive space where clients can explore patterns, build resilience, and foster meaningful change.

Outside of the therapy room, I enjoy watching movies, reading, traveling, hiking and spending quality time with my family.
