I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida and North Carolina. I am a qualified supervisor in Florida. I have 10 years of experience working in different settings and populations. I have experience both in Mental Health and Substance Abuse disorders. I have worked the majority of my career with clients with chronic mental health illnesses and moderate to severe symptoms. I have vast experience in crisis intervention.
Together we will come up with attainable goals and objectives; we will set realistic expectations and trace a plan to get where you want to be.
Sense of humor, transparency and humility. I will meet you where you are and will always keep it real!
I love to work with clients who are in a transition process, either from jobs, cities, leaving behind relationships that do not serve them a purpose any longer. Overall, clients who know what they want and need to come up with a solid plan to get there while not missing the present moment.
I have experienced working with mild, moderate and severe mental health disorders. I have used, among other approaches, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with clients with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance abuse and comorbid disorders.
My experience working with diverse populations and in a variety of settings allowed me to combine more than one approach to meet my client's needs. We all have a unique experience of our human condition. What might work for me, might not work for you and vice versa. Keeping an open as a practitioner has been one of my bigger strengths.
Using motivational interviewing with clients struggling with addictions, impulsivity, and self-destructive behaviors can be an eye-opening experience.
