About Trina
Trina Hill is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Illinois who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, grief, and depression. She speaks plainly and aims to make starting therapy feel doable for someone who is nervous or unsure. Her tone is supportive and encouraging from the first contact.
Trina uses a blend of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on Systemic therapy to look at patterns in relationships and environments that affect wellbeing.
Background and approach
She also works with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Attachment-Based ideas to address how thoughts, values, and early bonds shape behavior. In sessions she invites open conversation and focuses on practical steps. Expect straightforward discussion about symptoms and everyday routines, along with tools to manage anxiety, cravings, or low mood.
Work may include learning new thinking habits, values-based choices, and ways to repair or understand important relationships. Her background includes eight years in direct clinical practice as an LCSW in Illinois. That experience informs a calm, steady approach to complicated problems like trauma, addiction, and persistent worry.
Trina aims to help people feel more in control of daily life. Starting therapy is framed as a collaborative process. She helps people set clear goals, track small changes, and adjust strategies when something doesn’t fit.
The emphasis is on practical progress and on building skills that carry into everyday life.

Online support
How Trina’s Approaches Work Online
Trina combines Systemic therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in ways that translate well to online work. Systemic therapy looks at the patterns between people and in daily routines to find what keeps problems going. It can help when stress or depression ties into relationship patterns or recurring life situations. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts without getting stuck in them and acting on personal values; it often helps with anxiety, avoidance, and addictive behaviors.She treats approach selection as a team decision. Early sessions are used to learn what matters to the client and which methods feel most useful. The therapist and client check in as progress unfolds and adapt strategies together when adjustments are needed.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which let people fit therapy into busy lives. Video sessions are useful for deeper conversation and working through relational patterns. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, homework review, or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and to pick the format that suits a person's routine and goals.
