Tiffany Smith
Hi, my name is Tiffany (she/her/hers). I am a licensed clinical social worker and certified yoga teacher. I am passionate about working with Black women who experience depression, anxiety, “Superwoman Syndrome,” people pleasing, perfectionism, and difficulty communicating. My heart is committed to helping you set boundaries, cultivate self-love and self-compassion, communicate your needs and wants in order to have mutually satisfying relationships, and calm your mind and body. The work we will do is mind-body based and trauma informed. I will integrate healing techniques of somatic therapy, principles and philosophies of yoga including: asanas (physical postures), pranayama (breathwork), and dhyana (meditation), mindfulness, Internal Family Systems (IFS), humor, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and teaching (I’ll help to ‘make it make sense.’). I want to help you cultivate a life you are excited about. A life where you feel free to be real, rather than nice. A life where you say “no” and set boundaries without apologizing or feeling guilty. A life where you know your limitations and offer what you can, when you can. A life where you can feel and respond to your emotions without labeling yourself as “weak or dramatic.” A life where you choose to give yourself the same love and compassion that you do to everyone else.
