About Tiffany

Tiffany Johnson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 10 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, intimacy issues, parenting challenges, self-esteem struggles, and coping with life changes. She also addresses areas such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, codependency, and substance use concerns.

Her background includes roles in community mental health, nonprofit programs, and leadership positions in residential treatment settings. Those experiences shaped a practical, client-centered way of working that focuses on what someone wants to change. She draws on several evidence-informed approaches to help people identify steps they can try between sessions.

In the room she uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. She also integrates Attachment-Based Therapy and Mindfulness practices to address patterns that began in relationships and to build steadier emotional responses.

Tiffany uses motivational interviewing techniques when change feels uncertain, and she includes psychoeducation so clients can understand what they are experiencing. She aims to help people make clearer decisions and feel more able to handle daily demands. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients; confirm current session options before booking.

She describes her work as client-centered and practical. People who come for help with guilt, shame, or lingering family issues will find a therapist who focuses on specific steps, realistic coping tools, and understanding how past patterns affect present choices.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without trying to eliminate them, then identify small actions that reflect personal values. It is useful for guilt, shame, anxiety, and choices about relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with practical experiments and behavior changes to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and helps people try new, steadier ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tiffany collaborates with each person to see which methods feel most useful for their goals. She combines techniques as needed, and she checks in about what is or isn't helping so the plan can change together.

The biography does not list specific session delivery methods, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people choose online sessions because they fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule around work, caregiving, or treatment appointments while still working with a licensed professional to address guilt, shame, and related concerns.
