Tiffany has a diverse range of human service and clinical experience. Prior to starting The Therapeutic Loft, LLC Tiffany worked with the LGBTQ community, individuals with substance abuse disorder, individuals living with HIV/Aids, autistic children, and abused and neglected children. As a clinician, Tiffany has a unique approach and implements effective psychotherapy methods to instill self-understanding among clients and encourage them to adopt new attitudes and feelings towards life situations. In her free time, Tiffany enjoys music, photography, reading, traveling, and hiking. Finally, It is essential to keep in mind that therapy is not a magic pill or a quick fix: therapy is a healing process that necessitates participation and investment from the client and caretaker alike. But in the end, making small changes to self-defeating behavior and coping with feelings of sadness, fear, and pain can bring life-altering results.
