Tiffany Michaud, LPC

Tiffany Michaud is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, grief, relationship struggles, or big life changes. Tiffany aims to make therapy straightforward and helpful from the first session.

She prefers a warm, down-to-earth style and focuses on building a trusting relationship. Sessions are practical and goal-focused. Clients can expect clear ways to manage symptoms, improve communication, and cope with hard emotions.

Tiffany draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that get in the way of daily life. She also uses acceptance and commitment strategies to help people live in line with their values. Attachment-based ideas guide work on closeness, trust, and relational patterns.

Her background includes working with adults on issues such as parenting concerns, blended family stress, caregiver strain, chronic illness, and career challenges. She addresses trauma, intimacy-related problems, and feelings of emptiness or abandonment with sensitivity and direct skills work.

Sessions may include mindfulness exercises, skills practice, and focused problem-solving. The approach is collaborative - Tiffany helps clients set clear goals and tracks progress over time. Her work is aimed at building resilience and practical coping tools for everyday life.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

CBT helps identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. In online sessions this often looks like tracking thoughts between meetings, practicing new behaviors, and using short homework tasks to test changes in daily life.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult feelings while committing to actions that match personal values. Over video or messaging, clients learn skills for accepting hard emotions and choosing steps that move them toward meaningful goals.

Attachment-based work focuses on patterns of closeness, trust, and communication. This helps people understand how past relationships affect current reactions and supports building healthier ways of relating.

Tiffany treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. If something isn’t working she adjusts the plan together with the client.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be a good option when lower bandwidth or being off camera is helpful. Live chat and text messaging work well for quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or practicing new strategies between sessions. These choices make scheduling easier and let people use formats that fit their daily life.
