About Me
As a School-Based Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with adolescents and young adults using various interventions tailored to each individual and their needs. My therapeutic experience mostly consists of services provided to adult and adolescent clients struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, and stress related issues. I use a variety of assessment tools to identify behavioral health needs and Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology and Motivational Interviewing according to the client’s individual needs, I work with the client and family to create treatment goals that are feasible as well as helpful to all who are involved.
I graduated from the University of Central Florida with my Bachelor’s degree in Social Work in 2014 and soon after graduated from Florida Atlantic University with my Master’s in Social work in 2015 through the Advanced Standing Program. I have gained years of experience in a variety of settings and with diverse clients, including long term and brief interventions. Areas of concentration include:
• Adults, children and adolescents with behavioral issues
• Anxiety, depression and other various DSM V diagnosis
• Life stresses and next steps
• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy interventions and techniques provided via individual, group, or family sessions
• Psychoeducation and referral resources to aide client and family experiencing need.
I believe that a large part of wellness is having healthy, meaningful relationships, not just with others, but with ourselves. Change happens when we are honest with ourselves about what is missing in our lives, and what we need from ourselves and others. I am willing to work together building skills that will help you move forward in life.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Tierra Rushing. We don’t pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
My daughter loves her therapy sessions and she has confidence to talk about things she usually struggles with.
Tierra is so understanding, supportive, and professional. I have been able to work through many problems I have had with her...It's truly been an incredible experience.
Tierra has been really helpful in helping me process my thoughts and learning coping strategies to stop the thought spiral before they begin or notice it and find another way to direct my thoughts. She reminds me that my feelings are valid and helps me to set boundaries and find what is the best for myself, when I spend a lot of time worrying about others. I really recommend her! She has made my teencounseling.com experience very impactful.
She provided tools to help me after our first session.
Tierra is very helpful I enjoy filling out worksheets to help better understand things about myself and she seems to have a worksheet for exactly wamhat I need. She is very easy to talk to as well which helps a lot.
Tierra is a great listener. I feel like I’m in good hands when I talk about my stuff. I appreciate the advice Tierra provides.
I have just started with Tierra rushing not to long ago and I feel like she really listens and understands what I talking about.
Tierra is great! :)
Very supportive and friendly! Lots of good input and makes me feel heard.
