About Tiffany
Tiffany Wilhelm is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Wisconsin with eight years of professional counseling experience. She draws on more than a decade of broader mental health work in nonprofit and residential settings. Tiffany focuses on practical support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, trauma, grief, and major life changes.
Before counseling in outpatient settings, she spent years responding to mental health crises for youth and running psychoeducation groups on topics like anger management and cognitive behavioral approaches for depression. She has also worked in leadership roles, supervising programs for crisis response and protective placements for vulnerable adults. Those experiences shaped how she structures sessions and responds to urgent needs.
In session she emphasizes an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where clients can name feelings and try new skills. She uses mindfulness practices to help people stay present and reduce reactivity. She also draws on client-centered approaches that prioritize the client’s goals and perspective.
Tiffany uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She applies elements of dialectical behavior therapy when stronger emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills are needed. Motivational interviewing is part of her work when people want help making changes like reducing substance use.
Many clients seek her out for help navigating midlife transitions, parenting strain, relationship and communication problems, adoption and foster care concerns, attachment issues, and caregiver stress. She aims to partner with each person to set clear goals and build skills that fit daily life.

How her methods translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting working relationship. It centers the client's goals and perspective so sessions follow what matters most to the person. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches concrete skills to notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills for people who struggle with strong, frequent emotions or impulsive reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Tiffany will collaborate with each person to choose or combine methods based on goals, life circumstances, and what feels helpful. She checks in about how techniques are working and adjusts the plan as needed so clients are involved in decisions about their care.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. For people trying skills between appointments, remote sessions can support homework review and practice in everyday routines. Licensed professionals can adapt these approaches to meet practical needs while keeping sessions focused on goals and usable strategies.
