At an early age most people are taught to be independent, strong, and self-sufficient. But, there are times in life when difficult situations can become overwhelming. During these difficult times in life some individuals do not realize that it is okay "Not to be Okay." Asking for help can be hard.

Maybe you’re the person who holds everything together, but inside you feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or exhausted from trying so hard to get things right. Or maybe parenting is bringing up emotions and patterns you never expected. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, perfectionism, relationships, and parenting. I’m an EMDR-trained therapist, and I’ll help you understand what’s happening underneath—not just manage what shows up on the surface.

Tiffany Lindfield

Therapist

Virtual • Memphis, TN


I have over 20 years of experience providing psychotherapy across a wide range of settings, including acute and non-acute mental health, residential treatment, and outpatient care. Throughout my career, I've worked with adults, adolescents, individuals, and couples facing everything from everyday life stressors to more complex emotional and psychological challenges.

While I work with a broad range of concerns, I have particular interests in relationship counseling using the Gottman Method, chronic pain utilizing Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), addiction, borderline personality disorder using DBT, and anxiety-related disorders. I also frequently help clients navigate life transitions, relationship difficulties, parenting, work stress, panic, and general emotional well-being.

One thing that deeply shapes my work is a genuine curiosity about the human condition. I believe every person's story makes sense when we take the time to understand it. Rather than viewing people through the lens of a diagnosis alone, I strive to understand the experiences, relationships, beliefs, and circumstances that have shaped who they are. I see therapy as a collaborative process of exploration, insight, and meaningful change.
