02 · In Tiffany's own words

What Tiffany says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida with over 20 years of experience. I have counseled in community mental health settings, substance abuse treatment, in-patient and out-patient medical setting, alternative education, and in public schools. My clinical work ranges across all stages of development as I have served clients throughout the lifespan on a wide variety of behavioral health issues including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, parenting issues, self esteem, anger management, career and goal setting, LGBTQ issues, and improved communication and relationship skill building.

I earned my Masters and Specialist degrees in Mental Health from the University of Florida, and I have maintained both a License in Mental Health and a Certification in School Counseling since 2005. My counseling approach is very Client-Centered, as I firmly believe the client knows their journey best. I utilize perspectives from Humanistic Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and techniques from Solution Focused Counseling to help guide clients in need of support, direction, clarification of goals, and improved wellness. I have genuine empathy and compassion for others and I know of no greater privilege than to assist those choosing to invest in their healing and self improvement.

I believe our strengths, limitations, and experiences, inform our journey, but they do not have to define our path. We can all learn, grow, adapt, and transform in ways that bring improved peace, joy, success, and wellbeing into our lives. Making time for therapy is one of the best forms of self-care you can provide yourself. I would be honored to support you on your path to achieving your personal growth goals.

03 · How Tiffany works

The 4 approaches Tiffany lists, in plain English

These are the clinical methods Tiffany lists. The descriptions are Maker Therapy's, not Tiffany's - a general explanation of what each method is, so the list means something before you have spoken to anybody. They are not a claim about how Tiffany runs a session.

Client-Centred TherapyPerson-centred · Rogerian

The therapist does not steer toward a technique or a diagnosis. They offer sustained, non-judgemental attention and reflect back what they hear, on the premise that people find their own direction when they are genuinely listened to. Often what people mean by “someone who just gets it”.

Cognitive Behavioural TherapyCBT

Structured, present-focused work on the loop between what you think, how you feel and what you then do. Usually means noticing a thought pattern in the room, testing it against evidence, and practising something different between sessions. Among the most heavily researched talking therapies for depression and anxiety.

Motivational InterviewingMI

A way of talking about change with somebody who is genuinely in two minds about it. The therapist does not argue for the change; they help you say your own reasons out loud, which is the part that predicts whether it happens. Common around substance use and health behaviour.

Solution-Focused Brief TherapySFBT

Starts from where you want to end up rather than from how you got here. Sessions look for the times the problem is already smaller and work out what is different about those, so the number of sessions tends to be short and the work concrete.

04 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Tiffany practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Tiffany's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

   BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Tiffany at this point.

2. Naming Tiffany specifically

   BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Tiffany is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Tiffany.

3. If the caseload is full

   You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

4. The first conversation

   A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

5. If the fit is wrong

   Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Before you commit

4 questions worth asking Tiffany

Built from what Tiffany actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Tiffany's - Tiffany has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.

• “You list both Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Client-Centred Therapy. Which do you lean on with someone like me?”

  Those two point in different directions - one structured and led by the therapist, the other led by you. The answer tells you what the sessions will actually feel like.

• “How do you decide when someone is ready to work on a traumatic memory itself?”

  Pacing is the biggest safety question in trauma work. A clear, unhurried answer here matters more than any credential.

• “With 21 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”

  Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.

• “How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”

  On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.

07 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Tiffany's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 10 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Tiffany. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
