About Tiffany

Tiffany Dunnells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 10 years of experience in mental health. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addictions, and relationship concerns. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer communication rather than labels or long lectures.

She uses a client-centered stance that keeps the person and their goals at the center of sessions. That means listening first, then picking approaches that match the problem. Tiffany draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also uses emotionally focused ideas to help people recognize and name strong feelings.

Mindsight from mindfulness work appears in sessions to slow reactivity and lower daily tension. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants change but feels stuck. These methods are mixed in ways that aim to produce skills people can use between appointments.

Tiffany's background includes community mental health work and time in a psychiatric hospital. That variety gives experience with both short-term crisis work and longer-term coping skill development. She helps clients practice communication skills and build routines that reduce flare-ups of anger and stress.

Practical concerns like sleep, parenting strain, career pressure, or grief are folded into goal setting. People who prefer straightforward language and step-by-step tools tend to find this approach useful. To begin, clients complete a brief match questionnaire and schedule a first session to outline priorities.

How sessions work

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy starts by prioritizing the person's goals and preferences. Online sessions using this approach focus on listening, clarifying priorities, and choosing tools that match what the client wants to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down patterns of thought and behavior into concrete steps. In online sessions CBT often uses homework, worksheets, and short experiments to test new ways of reacting.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to see which methods feel most useful. That may mean trying CBT first, then adding mindfulness or emotionally focused techniques when feelings run hot. The plan is adjusted based on how well the strategies help with anger, stress, sleep, or relationships.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, avoid travel time, and have shorter check-ins when needed. They can also allow the therapist to assign practical tools and homework between meetings so progress continues outside session times.
