Michelle Tiger

Hello! Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who brings a very rich breadth of experience to my therapy clients. I work with adults, aged 21 and older. I offer a safe, non-judgmental space. I'm an LGBTQI+ ally. I approach each client as an individual. No two people are the same or have the same situation. Among other things, we'll examine negative thought patterns and behaviors that are keeping you stuck. I support my clients in decision-making around harmful situations and making positive changes.

I'm usually described as approachable, direct, curious, and compassionate. I'll bring a sense of humor to our sessions, when appropriate. I hold a Certification in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy training from Bryn Mawr College. I also have advanced training in working with military servicemembers through the Center for Deployment Psychology. Areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, childhood trauma, lived adult trauma, and Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. Also, marital and relationship issues, including separation and divorce for those who are uncoupling. Parenting and family challenges, including blended families (as well as life experience). I am a lifelong learner through each new client and advanced studies. I enjoy my work.

In our first session, we'll discuss what brings you to therapy and what is currently impacting your life negatively. There are some questions that are typical of any initial assessment. I'd like to know your goal(s) for therapy, if you have one. If you don't, we'll develop that together as things reveal themselves. I currently have telehealth appointments that lets me serve clients statewide through PA, but have in-office space available if you'd like to meet in-person. For in-person, I serve Glenside, Abington, Chestnut Hill, Wyndmoor, North Wales, Jenkintown, Wyncote, Oreland, Roslyn, Dresher, West Mt. Airy, Germantown, and more.
