Tiffany Michaud, MS LPC
Hello! I'm Tiffany Michaud, a licensed therapist passionate about helping others thrive. With over 15 years of experience as a counselor, I have had the privilege of supporting people of all ages through life’s challenges.
In my practice, I strive to help clients connect with themselves and the world around them, embracing their unique experiences and strengths. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can feel truly heard, understood, and validated. I believe you are the expert on your life, and together, we’ll explore ways to build resilience, gain clarity, and develop skills for living a more empowered life.
Helping others live their best lives is not just my work—it’s my passion and purpose. Thank you for being here. If you’re ready to take the next step toward growth and well-being, I would be honored to support you on your journey.
My Approach: The Power of Connection
At the heart of my therapeutic practice lies connection—both the connection between therapist and client and the deeper connection within oneself. I use an integrative and holistic approach, blending evidence-based techniques with an emphasis on building trust and safety. Therapy isn’t just about solving problems; it’s about creating a space to explore, understand, and nurture your inner world.
The Importance of Connection in Therapy
As humans, we are wired for connection. Our emotional and psychological well-being is deeply shaped by the relationships we build—with others and with ourselves. A genuine, empathetic connection with a therapist can offer relief, understanding, and support, forming the foundation for meaningful change.
Through this connection, you can process difficult emotions, make sense of past experiences, and begin to shift unhelpful patterns. In this safe space, vulnerability is met with compassion, paving the way for self-acceptance, profound self-discovery, and enduring growth.
How I Work with Clients
I tailor my approach to meet you where you are, drawing from techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and trauma-informed care. This flexible, client-centered approach addresses a range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. My goal is to help you develop healthier coping strategies, gain insight, and feel empowered to move forward.
Above all, I prioritize building a collaborative, empathetic, and supportive relationship. Together, we will uncover the root causes of your challenges, identify your strengths, and create actionable steps toward healing and growth. In a space grounded in trust, connection becomes the key to meaningful personal transformation.
