Well hello there….my name is Tiffany M. Gerling. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I earned my Bachelor of Arts (B.A.). from Columbia College in Columbia, Missouri, majoring in Psychology. I went on to obtain my Master of Arts (M.A.) in Mental Health Counseling from Webster University. My professional experience includes working with children, adolescents, and adults; in individual, couples, group, family, and marriage counseling. I began my career working with children and families in the child welfare system. I have contracted with several community mental health centers in Tampa. I have worked extensively with children/adolescents who have experienced childhood trauma. I come from a multicultural family and have been exposed to many different cultures, races, and ethnicity which enables me to connect and empathize with a wide population of people.
I work with a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and trauma issues. I provide services that span from therapy for depression, grief, parenting support, teen issues, couples counseling, trauma, behavioral issues and much more. My therapeutic approach is personalized and tailored to the needs of my clients in order to assist them with attaining the personal growth and clarity for which they are striving. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While you can’t change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary, individualistic therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life.
I’m here to help guide you through your journey, if you’ll have me. I look forward to meeting you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
