Hello, and welcome. My name is Tiffany Welch, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Kentucky. I have experience supporting adolescents, young adults, professionals, and adults navigating stress, anxiety, burnout, life transitions, emotional overwhelm, relationship challenges, and periods of feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves. My professional background includes medical social work in dialysis and renal care, as well as experience as a teacher and school counselor working with middle and high school students. These experiences have shaped my approach to therapy by helping me understand the emotional impact that stress, change, caregiving, pressure, and unresolved experiences can have on daily life and overall well-being. My approach is client-centered, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. I integrate evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with a thoughtful and individualized approach tailored to each person’s needs and goals. I believe therapy should feel supportive, collaborative, and nonjudgmental—a space where you can feel heard while also gaining practical tools to move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional balance. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are high-functioning on the outside but internally carrying stress, anxiety, burnout, self-doubt, or emotional exhaustion. Together, we can work toward building insight, improving coping skills, strengthening emotional regulation, and creating meaningful, lasting change. Reaching out for support is a courageous first step, and I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.

Originally from Texas, I moved to Kentucky to pursue a Masters in Divinity. After the unexpected loss of my father, I began attending counseling for my own grief and relationships. Through my own healing process and many friendships and relationships, I became aware of the courage and bravery required to recognize and approach the trials in life. I quickly pivoted and relentlessly pursued my passion for counseling. My experiences and relationships with others cultivated my passion for being present with others throughout their own journeys, judgement free and wholeheartedly. As a professional counselor and therapist, I view my role as an opportunity to offer presence and hope to others as they embark on the journey of fearlessly discovering who they are created to be. I enjoy working with a large clientele from preteens, teens, young adults, and adults, ages 12+. My clients and I navigate through concerns related to communication, relationships, mood management, grief, disordered eating, along with many other topics. I have a largely collaborative approach with my clients while finding unique opportunities to challenge them toward their goals. Each session is tailored to my clients’ needs. I married my husband, Davis and together we share a life with our four very large dogs, Copper and Bruce, Tucker, and Otter Lee. Our boys keep us on our toes and we love taking them on weekend adventures. I enjoy an array of activities, including spending time with family and friends, running, leading Bible study, playing with our dogs, mentoring, writing, and reading. To my family, I have a bright-hearted and gentle presence. To my friends, I’m known repeatedly quoted for saying “These are the moments when life happens.” As much as I enjoy adventuring with others by running and exploring, it also brings me great peace to have moments of stillness while journaling and enjoying my coffee.
