Find a therapist in Florida — covered by insurance

👋 Hey there! I'm Shira. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in private practice, offering telehealth-only sessions in NY and Florida. With compassion and a touch of humor, I work with young adults navigating “life stuff” — the heavy topics that aren’t always welcome elsewhere, like anxiety, depression, childhood, family, and relationship dynamics, and transition-related stress (moving between states, entering the workforce, relationships — you name it). I’m here for you through it all.

The young adults I work with come from all walks of life. Some are stepping into therapy for the very first time, while others are returning with the hope of going deeper in their personal growth. If you're feeling the pressure of life, or just trying to make sense of your emotions — or you're dealing with anxiety, family dynamics, or feeling stuck — you're not alone. Therapy with me is a space to sort through the messy middle and build clarity and confidence.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe taking care of your mental health is one of the most important investments you can make in your life. Reaching out for support can feel intimidating, so if you’re here, you’ve already taken a meaningful first step. I’ve worked in the mental health field for over a decade and specialize in supporting adults and adolescents who are navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions.

I am a seasoned therapist who has a BA degree in Mathematics and a Master's degree in Social work. Having been in therapy myself, I am able to truly identify with my clients. My choice to become a therapist is totally based on a desire to assist individuals and couples work through ongoing life stressors. Our past hurts and traumas can affect how we see ourselves and the people around us. They can cause us to act in ways that hurt the ones we love. I'm here to walk you through life's challenges.

My passion lies in helping individuals live their best lives by transforming unhelpful thought patterns, releasing trauma, and breaking free from mental and emotional blocks that no longer serve them.

I take an eclectic, integrative approach to therapy—tailoring each session to meet your unique needs. With graduate training in Counseling and Psychology, and additional degrees in Education and Leadership, I bring a well-rounded perspective shaped by years of experience in diverse roles, including teaching, academic advising, addiction counseling, and working with couples, children, and families.

Drawing from a range of evidence-based and holistic modalities—such as Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Energy Psychology—I strive to create a compassionate and empowering space for healing and growth.

Having navigated my own transformative life experiences, I deeply understand what it means to face challenges, cultivate resilience, and emerge stronger. My purpose as a counselor is to guide others through their own journeys of healing, self-discovery, and personal evolution.

My warm and interpersonal style fosters a sense of safety and trust, allowing clients to feel seen, supported, and inspired as they work toward living more authentic, balanced, and fulfilling lives.

Hi Everyone! I’m Tiffany. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker.

In my practice, I support people who want to find more acceptance, wholeness, and aliveness in every area of their life. I often work with people who feel overwhelmed with self-criticism, doubt, sadness, anxiety, overwhelm, grief, and fear.

Psychology has always been my passion. I am a licensed mental health clinician with 10+ years of experience providing therapeutic services. I have found that I most enjoy providing therapeutic services to adolescents and adults and am knowledgeable in a variety of mental health issues such as anxiety, depression, substance abuse and difficulty adjusting to life changes. Extensive experience working with adult children of alcoholics, woman suffering from PCOS and with those experiencing symptoms related to leaving a previous religious faith.
