About Tierra

Tierra Rushing is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida who combines clinical training with a strengths-based approach to support adults and adolescents facing life transitions and mental health challenges. With six years of experience, she focuses on helping people manage depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, and stress by offering practical tools and person-centered care. Tierra emphasizes collaboration and autonomy, helping individuals draw on their own strengths while providing guidance and evidence-informed techniques to reach personal goals.

She adapts therapeutic methods to meet each person where they are, incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, and Motivational Interviewing as appropriate. Tierra’s work includes individual, family, and group interventions, as well as psychoeducation and referrals to community resources when additional supports are needed. Her approach is grounded in the belief that meaningful relationships with oneself and others are central to well-being, and that honesty about what is missing in life is the first step toward change.

Tierra holds a Bachelor’s degree in Social Work from the University of Central Florida (2014) and a Master’s degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University (2015) through the Advanced Standing Program. She offers a compassionate, supportive space for developing skills that help people move forward, build healthier relationships, and pursue a more fulfilling life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Client-Centered Therapy centers on the individual's experience, offering a supportive, nonjudgmental environment where the person’s goals and values guide the work. This approach is helpful for exploring self-esteem, relationships, life purpose, and making meaningful changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and mood difficulties; it is practical and skill-oriented, with exercises that translate well to remote sessions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and self-regulation techniques that can reduce stress, improve emotion regulation, and support coping with trauma-related symptoms and impulsivity.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Tierra works with clients and other licensed professionals to assess needs, goals, and preferences, then tailors techniques so therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single method. This collaborative exploration helps identify whether skill-based work, insight-oriented discussion, or a combination will be most effective.

Online therapy provides flexible options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, family, and other responsibilities. These formats let therapists and clients meet regularly, practice skills between sessions, and access licensed professionals from home or other convenient locations.
