I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 13 years of experience specializing in OCD and anxiety. I provide telehealth therapy to clients across California and offer services in both English and Spanish. My approach is warm, collaborative, and structured. I aim to create a space where you feel understood and supported, while also helping you make real, meaningful progress. I use evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you reduce anxiety, manage intrusive thoughts, and break out of patterns that feel overwhelming. I understand how exhausting it can be to feel stuck in cycles of overthinking or anxiety, and my goal is to help you feel more in control of your thoughts, your choices, and your daily life. Therapy with me is not just about talking—it’s about learning practical tools and building the confidence to handle what comes up outside of sessions.

Entiendo lo agotador que puede ser vivir con sobrepensamiento o ansiedad constante. Mi objetivo es ayudarte a sentirte más en control de tus pensamientos y tu vida, con herramientas prácticas que puedas usar dentro y fuera de sesión.

My name is Tiffany Deneau. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 10 years of experience. I have worked both in the inpatient/outpatient setting and have worked with several populations. My primary focus is improving emotional regulation, improving relationships, increasing self-esteem, and achieving personal growth.

I have been a therapist for over 15 years, and I find the most affective treatment is collaborative and tailored to fit each person’s goals and needs. Whether you are coming to therapy to find new coping strategies, change unhelpful patterns, or process traumatic and painful life events, we will work together to make sure that we are always solution-focused and moving steadily toward a place of health and wellness. We cannot always choose what happens to us, or how the human body responds to its environment, but we can learn how to reframe, manage, and better process those experiences. Through an eclectic and psychodynamic approach, I can help you gain skills and insights to feel more at peace, in control, and present in your life.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by California rather than a city like LA?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in California. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across California from San Francisco to San Diego! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in California.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
