Tiffany White
Sometimes, not feeling good is the result of over-functioning for too long. These patterns can run so deep that they stop looking like patterns- they just feel like you. But they’re not. It can be disorienting to pause and really examine the relationships, roles, and systems that have required you to over-function, carry too much, or lose parts of yourself along the way. I’m here to help you understand those patterns, reconnect with the parts of yourself that may have gotten buried beneath them, and decide where you want to go next.
First session
Our work begins with a comprehensive understanding of you. I ask thoughtful, targeted questions about your current stressors and symptoms, protective factors, relationships, family history, life experiences, physical health, lifestyle patterns, strengths, and the systems you’re navigating.
Strengths
As a mental health treatment provider, there are many areas one can specialize in. For me, I’m especially passionate about the intake and assessment process- developing a comprehensive understanding of my clients as individuals and as people navigating many different relationships, roles, environments, and systems. I’m endlessly curious about how people function within all the different parts of their lives and how those pieces influence one another. So, if you’re nervous about therapy and don’t know where to start, don’t worry- I’ll have plenty of questions to help get us talking, and your nervousness will likely disappear before you know it. And if you come in with lots of stories and examples to share instead, that’s perfect too. Everything you tell me helps me understand you more fully, and I am here for it! Once I have a clear picture of what’s going on, I move into overdrive toward your treatment plan and your goals. Together, we’ll find the right balance- giving you the time and space to process your thoughts and experiences while also actively doing the work to help you feel better and move toward the life you want. And just maybe, as some of the numbness and heaviness of adulting begins to lift, you’ll feel like doing something completely fun and silly again- like a cannonball into a pool, just because you can. 🙂
Ideal clients
I'm especially drawn to working with clients navigating complex, layered experiences, including: chronic stress and trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, loneliness, parenting demands, work related stress, anxiety, physical health, and ADHD. As a former teacher and mother of two teenagers and a child in college, I enjoy supporting women through motherhood. Supporting a child's well-being often begins with supporting you. Therapy offers a protected hour devoted entirely to your well-being 🩷
Treatment methods
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
You have specific goals you need to achieve within a short time span- let's lock in!
Compassion Focused
I can help you *quiet your inner critic* to move towards your goals with less rigidity, negative self talk, and frustration.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Sometimes it can feel like your mind is working against you. The way we think, feel, and respond to life's challenges all influence one another, and it's easy to get stuck in patterns that are not working. Together, we'll untangle those patterns and find new ways to help you move toward the life you want. I also provide Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) for adolescents and their supportive caregivers.
