If you're the friend everyone calls for advice but you're falling apart on the inside, the one who looks fine, performs fine, keeps it together in every group chat and every meeting, I work with you. Anxiety that doesn't show on the outside. Burnout you can't admit to. A relationship, breakup, or career shift that cracked something open. I've spent years in acute care settings sitting with people at their most vulnerable moments. I've learned throughout the years surface-level conversations don't get us anywhere, let's dive in to the root of the issue.

I work often with D1 athletes & pros (as well as their family members). I love supporting the romantic partners of people in the public eye. Though I often work with athletes I am not a Sports Psych. In fact, I don’t even follow sports! I’m here for the rest of your life and identity.

I’m Tiffany Settles, a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida, and I’m grateful you’re here. My journey in this field began in 2005 after earning my Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I started my career as a behavioral tech in an adolescent residential program, supporting teens facing moderate to severe mental health and behavioral challenges. That experience shaped my understanding of how deeply people desire to be seen, heard, and guided with genuine care. It also inspired me to move toward one-on-one work, complete my master’s in clinical psychology, and build a therapeutic practice rooted in connection and compassion.
