Therapists in Princeton, TX

Over the last decade, I have supported clients through uncertainty, devastating loss, and unimaginable hardships. Taking each experience in stride through therapy, has created lasting change for clients, and for myself. Personally, I also have known deep loss, emotional suffering, and have moved through what seemed like unending darkness. Humbled by the journey, I offer a place for fellow travelers to reset, refocus, and forge a path forward with a new set of skills and understanding. To accumulate evidence-based counseling skills, I earned a Bachelors in Psychology and a Master's in Counseling from the University of Texas-San Antonio. Additionally, I hold a Master's in Business Administration from University of Texas- Rio Grande Valley. With a well rounded educational foundation, I am fluent in addressing challenges across various walks of life. Grief is a universal burden that we all must carry at some point in our lives. Just like any heavy load, things can quickly feel unbalanced, putting goals at risk, interrupting progress, or shutting you down all together. You are not alone, and this is not just "all in your head." Finding a soft place to land, where its safe to say what you are thinking and feeling, is important for healing and growth after life's traumas have touched your life. Therapy can be that place. I offer you a safe space, and provide you with compassion, validation, and education. Trauma is a complex set of symptoms that can make sense when we apply the best fitting lens for your personal situation. Anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other conditions can complicate coping, making it challenging to move forward with confidence. Your unique experiences are welcome here. Feeling lost with no one to turn to who understands can prolong personal suffering. Its time to face what is driving you towards unhealthy coping habits, toxic relationships, and situational conflict. When you are ready, I invite you to access your strengths through therapy.

Welcome! My name is Tiffany and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the State of Texas, with a specialties in Neurofeedback, Quantitative EEG's, and Biofeedback. I have over 20 years experience working in the mental health field. I have worked with people experiencing a variety of issues including stress, anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, learning disabilities, ADHD, addictions, eating disorders, autism spectrum disorders, family conflict, marital issues, insomnia, and many more. I have a Master's degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of North Texas (1999) with a specialty in Neurofeedback. My desire to be a Counselor started at a very young age (12) and that never changed. I personally was challenged with many issues growing up and throughout my life including depression, anxiety, OCD, early loss of my mother, abuse, and eating disorders, which has always been my driving force to help others achieve mental happiness and content. My struggles as a young adult and throughout adulthood have taught me to learn from those experiences and be able to turn them into who I am as a Counselor today. I spent my teenage years volunteering with Prevent Blindness and the Lion's club and working with disabilities as well as the crisis hotline . Our ability to persevere is within, and I thrive on the challenge to help each person attain their full potential in life. It takes courage to begin a journey to better mental health, so I congratulate you on taking this first step towards healing. My specialties in Neurofeedback, QEEG, and biofeedback have allowed me to understand the brain/body component of mental health and the patterns associated with different issues allowing me to focus on the types of therapy that would most benefit each individual person. I was fortunate to be the Clinical Coordinator of the Neurotherapy Lab for 7 years in which I conducted counseling with Neurofeedback and both taught and mentored students at UNT. Since then I have continued to have a private practice as well as have worked with the head of Dr. Phil McGraw's psychological team for 16 years. I founded the Applied-Brain Body Solutions Clinic in 2011 as my private practice in which I incorporate a very holistic approach to mental and physical health and have worked with patients from 6 years old to 90 years old. I would describe myself as down to earth and open minded with an eclectic style of therapy. My approaches involve cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness therapy, client-centered, solution focused, and existential therapy as each person is different in their distinct needs. It would be my privilege to accompany you on your journey to happiness and a calm state and help you determine your mental health goals!

At this time, I'm scheduling in late evenings to accommodate parental duties and work schedules. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas. I've been working primarily with adolescent and adult survivors of sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse since 2015. I am certified in Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), an evidence-based modality developed specifically for reducing the effects of trauma. The effects of trauma can linger many years after the event, and I am ready to help you process the reminders of your past that still impact you, whether recent or long ago. Because of my work with survivors of trauma, I have also gained experience working with overcoming depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and attachment/intimacy fears. I am a safe person for all people, including individuals on the LGBTQIA+ spectrum and those of diverse (or no) religious beliefs. I am a foster/adoptive parent and have extensive experience navigating the Texas foster care system as well as the additional parenting stressors unique to parenting children who've experienced trauma. I am familiar with Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI), a parenting technique developed for raising children from hard places. Having spent all of my career in education and social services, I am familiar with preventing and addressing compassion fatigue/burnout. Some individuals may feel nervous or vulnerable when beginning counseling, so it's important to me to be a completely safe, non-judgmental, and affirming counselor who can handle hefty topics.

I am here to support & empower you in that journey. I am very passionate about helping people no matter what age they are! I like to make the environment of the therapy process feel like it is super safe and comfortable. The importance to me in my therapeutic approach is to make you feel as if you are not talking to a stranger about your life. I want you to enjoy coming for as long as you need. I understand how hard it an be to talk to loved ones about our daily lives. It is my goal to guide you to reach whatever you are looking for while talking with me so you can be the best that you can be! I grew up speaking Spanish and English so if there is anyone needing services in either I am here to help! I grew up really understanding the need to work hard for what you want. My belief is that we also have to work on ourselves outside of therapy to reach our goals. With me, you will learn to change your fixed mindset into a growth mindset. Additionally, learn new ways to express yourself when needed to make your life feel balanced in all aspects! I have always been interested in helping people in some way. As a young child, I remember switching back and forth wondering what I want to be when I grow up? I thought of several things like an Astronaut, Police Officer, and Surgeon. One thing I noticed they all have in common is trying to help in some form. For me, I just wanted to do something that made some sort of difference. I ultimately found the perfect path for me with Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I understood at a young age, that many people felt like they could confide in me. With this trait, I chose my career and I grew to love it so much by all the different people I get to meet along the way! The best part of it, is how rewarding it feels to help people grow!
