More about Tiffany

  • 16 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

Hi, I’m Dr. V.! As a licensed therapist in Florida, I bring over 16 years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on creating flexible, compassionate, and affirming spaces for clients navigating diverse challenges—from various mental health disorders to harm reduction and interpersonal healing.

Through a client-centered lens, I specialize in addressing a wide range of experiences, with particular expertise in trauma recovery, complicated relationship dynamics, substance misuse, and life transitions. I’m committed to supporting adolescents, adults, and couples with personalized treatment plans infusing evidence-based techniques, such as DBT, ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness-Based Therapy with expressive and integrative approaches, including Narrative and Existential Therapies.

My therapeutic work embraces multicultural perspectives and creates inclusive environments for those exploring aspects of sexual well-being and confronting unique identity challenges. By creating a non-judgmental and empathetic therapeutic relationship, I strive to help clients develop meaningful strategies for self-understanding, emotional resilience, and positive change.

I believe in empowering clients to discover their inherent strengths, process difficult emotions, and cultivate authentic connections—both with themselves and others. Together, we'll explore your experiences with curiosity and care—and hopefully share a laugh or two along the way!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
