About Tiffany
Tiffany Ung is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California with 13 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, addiction concerns, grief, ADHD, and self-esteem issues.
Her approach is straightforward and interactive. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and psychodynamic ideas to help people understand patterns that keep causing pain.
Tiffany also uses Client-Centered and Motivational Interviewing methods to support change. That means she listens for what matters to each person and helps them find their own reasons to move forward. She pays attention to attachment and communication problems that often sit behind relationship difficulties.
In sessions she works on short-term goals and on longer patterns. That can look like learning new skills for anxiety, practicing different ways to talk with a partner, or sorting through feelings after a loss. She helps people deal with guilt, shame, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
Tiffany offers counseling in English and Cantonese. People who choose her can expect a steady, practical focus on what they want to change and clear steps to test out between sessions.
BHow sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Tiffany commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to structure sessions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Motivational Interviewing helps people clarify their goals and build internal motivation to change, which is useful for addictions, parenting goals, and making life changes.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes listening and responding to each person's concerns so plans fit their situation. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to pick methods that match the client's goals, preferences, and the problems they brought in.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know what options are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove travel time. Therapists can adapt CBT exercises, motivational conversations, and reflective psychodynamic work to remote sessions, focusing on practical steps you can try between meetings.
