About me
I have played D&D for over 15+ years, I have GM'ed for around 6 years, and I've been playing non D&D games for 2 years. I love introducing others to new games and exploring different ways to have fun. I'm good at learning what things a player likes and describing the environment and options to bring about those great joys.
GM Style
I love role playing! I especially enjoy developing a intricate story that inspires deep emotions and pleasant feelings. Combat can be a part of a great story, but my focus is always on developing a satisfying story. Sometimes that means there is a pleasant ending, and sometimes it means there is a tragic ending. However it does end, I want it to be the player's choice. I'm friendly, outgoing, patient, supportive, and intuitive when it comes to designing a game my players will like. Sometimes I use voices, but I wouldn't say I was an expert on this. Please check out my website: www.journeygrouptherapy.com

Teacher
Tinelle is a very fun and skilled DM! She caters to her clients’ energies and needs! We have a play by post game together and she’s very responsive and very talented in keeping the story going, even without the interactivity of a “normal” table. I am a new player so she has been very helpful with teaching me the system we’re using as well! Definitely recommend! 🙌🏻
Tinelle was great leading a game of Exquisite Polycule, making sure to cover safety tools and how to move through the game. She is a fantastic roleplayer, creating interesting characters and worlds. Playing with her is always an exciting and fun experience! 11/10 would play again! And I have!
If you enjoy immersive storytelling, thoughtful dialogue, and fully fleshed out NPCs then you will enjoy playing with Tinelle. She is mindful of people's play styles and adapts when possible to meet players where they are at. She is a skilled facilitator and has a calming voice that is excellent at setting the mood. It's pretty awesome that she likes to get into character through the use of props, changing her zoom background, and really figuring out how the NPCs would react to the situations they are in with the players. Most importantly she is skilled at using games therapeutically. I think that the skills she uses in her practice also help players feel safe, welcomed, and affirmed. Tinelle is an exceptionally good GM for anyone that might not feel comfortable at a predominantly white, cis/het/masculine table.
