About Tiffany

Tiffany Dunnells is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with ten years of experience in mental health. She works with adults on concerns that include stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, anger, addictions, and parenting challenges.

She uses a client-centered approach and draws on several methods to fit what each person needs. Tiffany has worked in community mental health and in a psychiatric hospital setting. That work exposed her to many diagnoses and practical coping needs people bring to therapy.

In sessions she focuses on learning skills that help with day-to-day stress and improving how people communicate with others. She helps people manage mood issues like bipolar disorder, handle grief, and address sleep problems that come with stress. She also supports adults who are dealing with adoption or foster care questions, attachment concerns, or caregiver strain.

Tiffany often uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and emotionally-focused therapy to address thoughts and relationship patterns. Mindfulness strategies and motivational interviewing are part of her toolkit when motivation or grounding skills are needed. She adapts these approaches to the person in front of her rather than following a single protocol.

Her practice pays attention to family and parenting concerns as part of an adult's life context. Sessions aim to give practical skills, clearer communication, and manageable steps for change. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first session.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Client-centered therapy places the person’s goals and preferences at the center of sessions. The therapist listens, reflects what matters to the client, and helps set priorities for change. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and then practicing new ways of thinking and coping to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right approach is often part of the early sessions. Tiffany will work collaboratively to choose which methods to try and adjust them as goals and needs change. That process means trying practical techniques, reviewing progress, and shifting focus when something isn’t working.

Her biography indicates she offers remote telehealth counseling services; please confirm what formats are currently available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let someone use grounding or mindfulness tools during a regular break from caregiving or work. Licensed professionals who work this way aim to make sessions practical and applicable to everyday life.
