About Tiffany
Tiffany Dunnells is a Licensed Professional Counselor who uses a client-centered approach. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. Her style is warm and straightforward.
Sessions aim to be practical and respectful of each person’s needs. Tiffany draws on ten years in the mental health field in Texas, including community mental health and hospital settings earlier in her career. That range of experience shaped how she helps people build coping skills and improve communication.
Background and approach
She brings calm and clear guidance to difficult moments. In sessions she mixes approaches to match what a person needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help with relationship patterns and Client-Centered Therapy to keep care grounded in the person’s goals. Tiffany works with concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, anger, sleep problems, addictions, and coping with life changes. She also addresses issues like self-esteem, compassion fatigue, bipolar conditions, and ADHD.
Her practice includes support around parenting and family topics. Her tone is practical and collaborative. Clients can expect to talk through real problems and leave with concrete skills to try at home.
Tiffany aims to help people feel more capable of facing daily stressors and improving their connections with others.
Therapeutic approaches and what online therapy offers
Client-Centered Therapy places the person’s goals and experience at the center of sessions. The therapist listens without judgment and shapes the work around what matters most to the client, which helps when someone needs support that fits their life and values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more useful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and stress because it provides clear tools to practice between sessions.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy targets how people respond emotionally in relationships. It can help people notice patterns that lead to conflict and learn new ways to connect and communicate when emotions run high.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate to find which methods match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. That decision can change over time as progress is made or new concerns appear.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Those options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, reach help from home, and keep continuity when travel or life changes would otherwise interrupt care. Licensed professionals can use these formats to provide ongoing support and practical tools across different issues.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT)
Attends to the emotions underneath a recurring argument or distance, and to the attachment needs driving them. Often used where a relationship keeps returning to the same painful loop.
