About Tiffany
Tiffany Whittington uses a practical, evidence-based approach to help people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, and self-esteem struggles. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California and draws on ten years of clinical experience.
Background and approach
Tiffany focuses on clear goals and steady progress so people can feel more in control of their daily lives. She believes the client is the expert in their own story.
Sessions are collaborative and down-to-earth. Tiffany asks questions, listens closely, and offers concrete tools clients can try between meetings.
Small, doable changes are emphasized over big, sudden shifts. Tiffany has worked with people facing life transitions and motivation challenges.
She helps with coping when overwhelming feelings or past hurts interfere with daily life. Practical strategies are offered for panic, mood struggles, and difficulties with self-worth.
Addictions and trauma are addressed with attention to safety and pacing. Tiffany helps people notice patterns and build alternatives that fit their values.
Communication problems and attachment concerns are also explored to strengthen relationships and personal resilience. Sessions can include problem-solving, skills practice, and reflection on what’s been working.
The goal is to leave each session with one or two next steps. Tiffany supports people as they try those steps and adjusts the plan based on what helps most.
Evidence-Based Techniques and Online Care
Tiffany uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people learn skills to manage intense feelings and reduce panic or anxious reactions; it teaches moment-to-moment coping and breathing or grounding practices to use when anxiety spikes. Another approach concentrates on patterns in relationships and attachment; it helps people recognize recurring interaction styles and try new ways of relating that feel safer and more effective.Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Tiffany collaborates with each person to match techniques to their goals, preferences, and the pace they want. Together they set small, measurable steps and adjust the plan based on what helps most.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video calls allow longer, face-to-face conversations for skills teaching and deeper work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text messaging support quick reflections, brief coaching, and checking in between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between appointments.
