Tiffany Ream

Tiffany Ream is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois. She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, grief, addictions, and relationship or family strain. She helps people who are navigating life changes, parenting challenges, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and issues related to LGBT identity, first responder work, or non-monogamous relationships.

Tiffany centers the relationship with each person as the starting point for change. She aims to build trust and move at a pace that feels comfortable. Sessions are focused on practical steps, clearer thinking, and stronger coping skills rather than jargon or long lectures.

Her background includes a Master’s degree in Forensic Psychology and about 10 years of clinical experience. Tiffany has worked in private practice, in-patient settings, group homes, and correctional facilities, which informs a flexible approach to different life situations.

In sessions she commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy tools. Those methods are used to identify unhelpful thinking, build emotion regulation skills, and set small goals that lead to change.

Tiffany emphasizes helping people be heard and find their own voice. She frames therapy as a collaborative process where the person shapes goals and the therapist offers guidance, feedback, and practical techniques.

How Tiffany’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Tiffany commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with clearer, more useful thinking; it often helps with anxiety, depression, and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills, which can be useful for strong emotions and relationship difficulty.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative part of the process. Tiffany will work with each person to understand their goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Feedback and small adjustments help shape the plan as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online therapy, check which session formats are currently offered before you book, since formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions helpful because they can fit appointments into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow focused, goal-oriented meetings from a convenient location. Some formats may be better for short check-ins while others suit longer skill-building work. Ask about available options when you schedule so sessions can match your routine and goals.
