Hi, I’m Tiffany Green & I’m a Therapist in Chicago
Helping Professional Women & High Achievers Reclaim Balance and Joy
Straight A’s. Check. School spelling bee champ. Check. Girl Scout “Bridge to Juniors” patch. Check. Color-coded folders that matched my textbooks? Double-check. Looking back, it’s easy to see how my perfectionistic, high achieving personality sprouted early.
As an adult, I embraced my Type A personality. Yep, Enneagram 3 and proud of it! After earning a business degree, I began a successful marketing and communications career. But slowly, over time, the demands of work began to take a toll on my health.
One day, the overachiever in me hit a wall—hard. I burned out and ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. As I lay there, struggling to breathe, I made a promise to myself—if I was lucky enough to walk out of that hospital, I’d never let stress and work take control of my life again.
And I kept that promise.
I overhauled my life—making health and balance top priorities. I exercised, meditated, set boundaries and filled my life with people and activities that brought me joy. I also realized my favorite part of work wasn’t the projects or accolades—it was mentoring and supporting my team members. That realization set me on a new path. I went back to school full-time to pursue my dream of becoming a therapist, blending my natural drive with a deeper purpose to help others avoid the same painful journey I experienced.
What You’ll Gain from Working with Me
When you work with me, you’ll benefit from my personal experience, as well as my professional knowledge. You’ll find a safe, supportive space to work through challenges and rediscover what truly matters to you. Together, we’ll uncover the root causes of stress, anxiety, depression or trauma and create a plan to help you:
- Say Goodbye to Overwhelm: Learn tools to calm your mind and reduce stress.
- Avoid Burnout (Again): Set sustainable boundaries that prioritize your well-being.
- Heal Emotional Wounds: Process and release past traumas to move forward with confidence.
- Reclaim Joy: Build a life aligned with your values and passions.
My Approach to Therapy
As a recovering perfectionist, I understand first-hand the challenges you may be facing. I bring more than 20 years of combined experience in for-profit, non-profit, hospital and private practice settings to support you in reaching your therapy goals. Not only will I be your therapist but also your biggest cheerleader, confidant and consoler. I take a warm, collaborative and evidence-based approach to therapy. My toolkit includes:
- Psychodynamic Therapy: Exploring how past experiences shape present behaviors and emotions.
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Reframing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
- Somatic Experiencing®: Healing trauma stored in the body.
- Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Experience (DARe): Addressing attachment wounds for deeper emotional connection.
- Mindfulness Techniques: Cultivating present-moment awareness and emotional resilience.
- Coaching Interventions: Offering practical, goal-oriented support to help you thrive.
- Spiritual Integration: Honoring and incorporating your spiritual beliefs into the healing process.
About Me Today
I call myself “Type A Minus” now. I still love a good goal but I’ve learned to also prioritize balance and self-care in a sustainable way. And as a coach and psychotherapist specializing in providing care for women, BIPOC and LGBTQ+ professionals, I can teach you how as well. I offer affirming, culturally- and trauma-informed counseling to experienced clients, as well as those seeking therapy for the first time.
Outside of work, you’ll find me tending my balcony garden, experimenting in the kitchen or spending time with friends. Most people notice my hair, smile and laugh—usually in that order 🙂
Let’s Work Together
If you’re ready to leave burnout, anxiety and depression behind and step into a life of clarity and connection, I’m here to help. Most of my clients see a noticeable reduction in symptoms in just 3–6 months. Reach out today, and let’s take this healing journey together.
Sincerely,
Tiffany Green (she/her)

I believe we can learn by wisdom or we can learn by pain. I want to help you avoid my path and learn by wisdom.”
