Tiffany Price

Sometimes the hardest part of change isn’t what happened. It’s realizing that the role you’ve always known how to fill doesn’t fit quite the same way anymore.

Many of the people I work with are used to being the person others depend on. You may be the parent, spouse, caregiver, problem-solver, or family go-to person. You may genuinely value being there for other people. But something has changed. And now you may be wondering:

“Something changed, and I’m not sure who I am in this season of my life.”

I’m Tiffany Price, MSW, LCSW, a therapist with Resurgence Therapy PLLC. I provide online therapy for adults in North Carolina who are navigating major life transitions, changing family roles, caregiving, grief, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, and the question of what comes next when life no longer looks the way it used to.

I have more than 10 years of professional experience working with adults across a range of mental health and clinical settings. My background includes outpatient mental health, residential substance-use treatment, in-person therapy, and virtual care. I have also taught Master of Social Work students and supervised social work interns.

Working across different settings has reinforced something important for me: There isn’t one type of person who comes to therapy, and there isn’t one way people respond to difficult experiences. People bring histories, strengths, responsibilities, relationships, losses, values, and ways of coping that developed long before they entered a therapy room. I want the work we do together to recognize all of that.

My approach to therapy is curious before it is prescriptive. I don’t want to immediately tell you what you should stop doing, what boundary you should set, or what decision you should make. First, I want to understand you.

What have you experienced? What roles have you learned to fill? What matters to you about those roles? What assumptions are operating underneath the surface? What do you need that you may not have had space to consider before? And importantly, what do you actually want to be different?

Your responses usually make sense somewhere in the context of your experiences. Understanding that context doesn’t mean nothing changes.

It means we understand what we’re changing and why.

The goal isn’t to make you into someone else. It’s to help you make more intentional choices about what you carry into this next season of life.

My work is person-centered and strengths-based, while also drawing from evidence-based therapeutic approaches depending on what you are experiencing and what we are working toward.

My clinical training includes Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression (CBT-D), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness-based strategies, and Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality (CAMS).

These approaches give us useful tools and frameworks. They are not a script you have to follow.

We can use evidence-based strategies while still making room for your personality, relationships, values, culture, experiences, and the realities of your actual life.

Because ultimately, therapy needs to be useful somewhere other than the therapy session.

My style is warm, collaborative, curious, grounded, and practical.

You do not have to come to therapy knowing exactly what is wrong or what you need. We can start with what is happening. I’ll give you room to talk through what you are feeling. As we understand more, I’ll help you look at patterns, relationships, assumptions, emotions, needs, communication, and boundaries.

One thing we may pay particular attention to is the difference between what you feel and what that feeling automatically seems to mean. You might feel guilty after setting a boundary. That feeling matters. But feeling guilty does not automatically mean you did something wrong.

You might feel anxious about disappointing someone. That anxiety deserves our attention. But it doesn’t necessarily mean disappointing them would be dangerous, selfish, or the wrong choice.

Therapy gives us room to acknowledge the emotion while also getting curious about the story attached to it.

You can question me. You can disagree with me. You can tell me something we tried didn’t help.

I don’t expect you to fit the therapy. I adjust the work to the person sitting in front of me.
