Hi, my name is Annalisa Baez! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years' of experience. I am licensed in the state of Florida. I have varying experience working within community mental health agencies and private practice. I provide individual, group, and family counseling in both community mental health organizations and in my private practice. I have advanced training in the treatment of substance abuse and dependence. I specialize in treating adults for substance abuse, depression, anxiety, social/life skills, postpartum depression, trauma, marriage difficulties, and stress from major life events.
In our first session together, we will start with introductions, get a history so that I can get to know you better then dive into the specific challenges you are facing. This will help us create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow up sessions.
Having worked with adults for the past 10 + years, the feedback I most receive from my clients is that I am authentic, genuine and non-judgmental. My biggest strength is to allow a space for my clients to feel seen and validated.
I love working with adults who are experiencing difficulties in daily life and need supportive care to return to a more peaceful state.
With over 10 years of experience utilizing CBT in therapy. My approach is to help clients identify and challenge irrational or negative thought patterns and to encourage to replace them with more balanced and realistic ones.
My experience with this approach to meet you where you are and engage in a way that provides an opportunity for self-reflection and growth.
My approach is always to be supportive of you and your goals!
With this approach the focus is identifying your strengths and ways to apply these strengths to different areas of your life
