Greetings! I'm Tiffany Sutton, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over two decades of experience guiding individuals toward holistic well-being. As a clinical therapist, my ultimate purpose is to facilitate the pursuit of happiness and optimal health for each person I serve. In my unwavering belief, proper health encompasses more than just the physical aspect; it's a fusion of empowerment, purposeful connection, and mindful existence. My mission centers around empowering you to navigate life's challenges and embrace them with intention. Drawing from a holistic and evidence-based approach, my health coaching philosophy examines the intricate interplay of various factors that shape our well-being – from lifestyle choices and nutritional considerations to the environment we inhabit and the relationships we nurture. To assist you in realizing your goals, I offer pragmatic recommendations. Central to my practice is creating a secure and nurturing space, fostering an environment where your growth and progress can flourish. With dedication, I commit to equipping you with the skills and insights necessary to cultivate sustained well-being. Through personalized strategies curated to your specific needs, we'll co-create a roadmap toward your goals.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the first session with me, clients can expect the following: 1. Warm Welcome and Introduction: I’ll begin by creating a welcoming and supportive environment. We’ll start with introductions, and I'll share a bit about my approach to therapy and what clients can expect from our sessions. 2. Understanding the Client’s Needs: I will take time to understand the client’s reasons for seeking therapy. This involves discussing their concerns, emotional challenges, and goals for treatment. I'll ask questions to gain insight into their experiences and what they hope to achieve. 3. Discussion of History and Background: To provide context for their current situation, I may ask about their personal history, including any past mental health issues, significant life events, and relevant family or relational dynamics. 4. Establishing Goals and Expectations: Together, we’ll identify the goals for therapy and outline what they want to work on. This helps in setting clear, achievable objectives for our sessions. 5. Explanation of the Therapy Process: I’ll explain the therapeutic process, including how sessions will be structured, the methods and approaches we may use (such as CBT, Positive Psychology, or Humanistic Therapy), and how we’ll track progress. 6. Confidentiality and Consent: I will discuss confidentiality and ensure clients understand their privacy rights. We’ll review and sign consent forms related to therapy and data protection. 7. Addressing Immediate Concerns: If the client has immediate concerns or urgent issues, we will address these first to ensure they feel supported and safe. The first session is about building rapport, understanding the client's needs, and setting a foundation for effective and supportive therapy. I aim to ensure clients feel heard, valued, and prepared for the therapeutic journey.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

Drawing upon over 24 years of dedicated experience in clinical social work, my strengths lie in versatility, a keen ability to motivate clients, and the skill to infuse moments of brightness into even the darkest situations. My professional journey has been a rich tapestry, allowing me to perceive social work, counseling, and therapy from a multifaceted perspective. Throughout my tenure, I've been an empathetic guide for clients navigating through profound experiences of depression, anxiety, grief, and trauma. As we embark on this therapeutic journey together, I share these facets of my background so that you may feel assured and at ease, knowing you are in capable hands.
