Tierra Rushing, LCSW

Tierra Rushing is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida who brings six years of experience working with adolescents and adults facing depression, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, and stress-related challenges. She creates a compassionate, supportive space where people can explore obstacles and build on their existing strengths to pursue meaningful change. Tierra emphasizes collaboration - offering guidance and practical tools while honoring each person’s autonomy and personal resources to reach their goals.

Her training includes a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Central Florida (2014) and a Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University (2015) completed through an Advanced Standing Program. Across a range of settings she has delivered both long-term and brief interventions and focused her practice on behavioral issues in children, adolescents, and adults, as well as mood disorders, trauma, and life transition concerns. Tierra integrates evidence-informed techniques to match each client’s needs, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Positive Psychology, Motivational Interviewing, and client-centered methods.

In addition to traditional therapy goals, her work addresses relationship dynamics, parenting, career and life-purpose questions, compassion fatigue, and co-occurring conditions such as ADHD and bipolar mood concerns. Tierra also provides psychoeducation and referral resources for clients and families navigating complex needs. She approaches therapy with a belief that honest self-reflection, strengthened coping skills, and healthier relationships with self and others are central to lasting wellness.
