About Tiffany

Tiffany Martin is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Missouri with 17 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, intimacy-related concerns, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue. Tiffany also focuses on family of origin issues and related topics such as attachment concerns, abandonment, blended family dynamics, and fatherhood issues.

She frames therapy around the person in front of her. Sessions are conversational and practical. Tiffany listens for patterns that came from early family life and links those patterns to current struggles. She invites clients to set the pace and to try small changes between sessions.

Her approach uses straightforward methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people test and change upsetting thoughts. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions. Mindfulness and solution-focused techniques are used to notice the present moment and to identify practical next steps.

Tiffany draws on long-term practice with a wide range of concerns. She says people often bring complex histories and day-to-day pressures to the room. Work may include tackling communication habits, dealing with feelings of emptiness or abandonment, or managing caregiver strain and chronic illness impacts.

Clients can expect a clinician who emphasizes collaboration and clear goals. Tiffany encourages concrete skills and brief experiments to see what helps. She asks about family patterns when they matter and helps translate those insights into choices for today.

How Tiffany Uses Therapy Methods Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can name their own goals and priorities. This approach helps when people need space to sort through feelings about family roles and long-standing patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical strategies to test and change unhelpful thinking. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be useful when strong reactions come from past family patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process means clients and the therapist pick skills and exercises that fit the client's needs and preferences rather than assuming one method from the start.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins, or making it simpler to join from work breaks. It can also let sessions focus on skill practice, thought records, and real-time problem solving without needing a particular in-person setup.
