My name is Tiffany Fisher and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and empowered to make meaningful change—helping you move toward greater self-awareness, emotional balance, and a stronger sense of self. I draw from DBT, CBT, and psychodynamic therapy, along with a humanistic perspective, to meet each client where they are. Together, we’ll explore underlying patterns, build practical coping skills, and develop a deeper understanding of your emotions and experiences.

Waitlist for new clients
Having the willingness to bring yourself into the counseling room and sharing your deepest hurts with a stranger can be extremely difficult. Coming in with the openness and desire to get better without knowing how it is all going to work takes a lot of courage. A desire to get better is where it starts, the next step is showing up and allowing yourself to be vulnerable. I know it's scary, but you won't be walking this road alone. My job is to stand alongside you and help guide the steps to healing.

My specialties include depression, anxiety, trauma, aggression, and relationships- family and couples.
I am originally from Chicago and I have called Florida home for over 20 years. I believe that everyone is capable of greatness if they can only get the direction and chance that they need. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with one step". To me this means that no matter where you have started in life and whatever challenge that you are facing, you are not stuck and you can achieve things that you may not have been able to imagine.

Using approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and family systems work, I help clients manage emotions, build confidence, and strengthen connection.
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, grief, or relationship struggles begin to weigh you down. You may be doing your best to keep things together, but inside you feel exhausted, uncertain, or discouraged. Perhaps you are carrying silent worries that others do not see, or you have tried to move forward but nothing seems to help for long. Whether you are a parent watching your child struggle, a teen navigating change, or an adult facing loss or transition, you want understanding, relief, and a sense of direction. You are longing for peace, clarity, and a way to feel like yourself again.

We also have a couples/sex/financial therapist Jessica Reis, Registered Marriage and Family Therapist Intern.
Overwhelmed During Pregnancy or Postpartum? You're not alone. We accept most major insurance plans, including Medicaid HMOs. Pregnancy and parenthood are often described as joyful, but they can feel overwhelming, isolating, and unexpectedly hard. You may feel anxious, irritable, disconnected, or unlike yourself, even when everything “looks fine” on the outside. You might be navigating intrusive thoughts, sleep disruption, relationship strain, or a birth experience that did not unfold as you hoped. You may also be grieving a miscarriage, stillbirth, fertility challenges, or another loss that feels invisible to others.

There are seasons in life that feel heavy and disorienting, when anxiety, depression, grief, or trauma make it hard to see a way forward. You may be wrestling with self-worth, relationship struggles, or a loss that has changed your sense of stability. Some people I work with are seeking clarity in their faith or trying to rediscover purpose after disappointment or transition. Whatever brings you here, you may simply long for peace, authenticity, and a space where your story is heard and valued.

You are tired of feeling anxious, of replaying the same thoughts, of believing that you do not have control over your mind or your feelings. You have been longing for peace, for a way to connect with yourself, for the sense that life can feel safe again. It is understandable that you are exhausted and unsure. My clients are teens, young adults, and adults who are navigating life challenges and life transitions. You deserve transformation. You deserve to hold the reins of your own life. And it is absolutely possible to come back to yourself, one small step at a time.

I offered a Christian based approach, leaning into scriptures, like Psalm 147:3, and proven scientific based approaches (Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, Mindfulness, Family Systems, and Play Therapy).
Life is not always easy, and the stresses of life can become overwhelming at times. We all face moments, situations, and seasons that challenge us more than we expected. These experiences can leave us feeling anxious, discouraged, or even hopeless. Everyone needs a safe place to process their emotions, heal from past pain, and navigate lingering grief. My goal is to provide a supportive and compassionate space where you can explore those challenges and begin moving toward a healthier, more peaceful life.

You may be walking through a season that feels uncertain or heavy—carrying anxiety, grief, trauma, or the strain of difficult relationships.
