About Tiffany

Tiffany Goles is a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) based in Michigan with 13 years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship and family concerns along with anger, self-esteem, and depression. Tiffany brings warmth and steady support to conversations that feel hard to have.

She aims to help people find more self-awareness and confidence in daily life. Over more than a decade in practice, Tiffany has helped people through life transitions, parenting stressors, divorce recovery, and relationship challenges including affair healing and premarital concerns.

Background and approach

She also addresses mood concerns such as depression and postpartum depression, and works with issues like isolation, guilt, and identity questions. Tiffany uses approaches rooted in attachment-based ideas and emotion-focused work to notice feelings and patterns in relationships. She also draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thoughts and the Gottman Method for practical relationship tools.

Her style is warm and nonjudgmental, keeping the conversation focused and practical. In sessions she helps people name painful feelings and take small steps toward change. She aims to help clients feel seen, accepted, and more able to make choices that match their values.

Tiffany encourages radical acceptance of self and others as a way to move forward. People looking for help with family dynamics, communication problems, commitment and trust issues, or midlife and life purpose questions may find her approach accessible. Sessions are conducted in English and reflect her years of work supporting clients through common and complex life challenges.

How Tiffany’s approaches translate to online therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in close relationships and how early bonds shape emotional responses. In sessions this means noticing how people react to closeness and learning new ways to feel safe with others. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental meeting where the therapist listens deeply and follows the client's pace to build self-awareness and confidence.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tiffany works with each person to identify goals and preferences, then suggests ways of combining listening, emotion-focused work, and thought-oriented exercises. She checks in to make adjustments as needs change so the work stays relevant and practical.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. Some people find video helpful for visual connection while others prefer audio for less screen time; discussing what feels manageable helps shape the plan.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
