About

Hi there, I'm Tiffany! My name is Tiffany Hanzal and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist practicing in California. I have over ten years of clinical experience in various diverse areas including working with those with needs in Crisis, Trauma, Grief, Anxiety, Depression, addiction, and Dual-Diagnosis, life stress, and Post- Traumatic Stress. My approach to therapy is client centered. I like to explore the individual's needs and their unique responses with a holisticM and integrated approach to healing and recovery which may include multiple approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused and Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, as well as Mindfulness- based Cognitive Therapy. My approach My approach to providing therapy is to ensure that an integrative approach is used to allow for flexibility and to respond directly to each clients needs and goals. The most common theoretical approaches I introduce with each client include Humanistic and Client-Centered Counseling to ensure and empathetic and non-judgmental space is create for the client including feelings of openness and acceptance and unconditional positive regard, Cognitive- Behavioral Therapy to assist in guiding the client in navigating and developing the tools to manage how their thoughts and feelings influence behavior and responses to multiple aspects of life, Mindfulness- Based approach to assist the client in getting accustomed to becoming aware of and accepting their thoughts and feelings in the moment they are happening with the goal to develop skills to manage emotional stressors reflectively rather than reflexively, Rational-Emotive Therapy to assist the client in moving away from defaulting to self-defeating beliefs and develop a more positive sense of well being, as well as a Solution-Focused Approach.
