Tiffany Fisher

Tiffany Fisher

Therapist

Virtual • Washington


I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with a Master of Social Work and a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I offer individual therapy through telehealth to adolescents, adults, and older adults throughout Washington, including military members and their families. Virtual sessions allow us to connect from a private, comfortable space without the added time and travel of an office visit.

My experience in mental health care, military service, and law enforcement has shaped the compassion, understanding, and practical perspective I bring to therapy. In my current role as a Lead Therapist in an inpatient psychiatric setting, I support people facing complex mental health challenges. Throughout my career, I have learned to value each person’s story and recognize the courage it takes to reach out for support.

I bring warmth, honesty, and a practical, collaborative approach to therapy. Whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, stress, or life transitions, I want to understand what matters to you. Together, we’ll explore your concerns, build practical coping skills, and work toward goals that are meaningful to you. You don’t need to have the right words, or everything figured out. We can start wherever you are.
