Josely Daniel
Hello! I am a mental health counselor, licensed in the state of Florida with 6 years of counseling experience. Clients whom I have had the honor of working with have dealt with anxiety, depression, low self esteem, trauma and anger management. I also have had 20+ years of experience in providing guidance to those facing relationship issues and parenting challenges.
First session
First session is an intake session, where a series of questions are asked. Questions will usually include biological, psychological, social, and possibly spiritual factors that are causing, or contributing to problem/problems of your life. Intake usually takes one session to complete, but may require up to 3 sessions to complete. Typically, once intake is completed, clinician and client will discuss goals for future sessions.
Strengths
Having worked with adults for the past 6 years I have been able to become more patient with my trauma patients - allowing them the time and space to fully unpack their thoughts. With my anxious and depressed clients, I have been more able to empathize, show that I do understand them and hear what is being said and unsaid.
Ideal clients
I love working with clients who have challenges problem solving in various areas of life such as their personal, family, and/or social life. Problem solving for many clients is difficult but made more feasible once the root cause for the problem is defined. I also enjoy working with clients who have difficulty managing their anxiety and/or depression. In many cases, the client is able to articulate positive coping skills already in use and simply needs validation and support. Lastly, I love working with clients who have experienced trauma. They often want more understanding on how the past is impacting their now.
Treatment methods
Eclectic
I pull from various approaches based on the client, the presenting issue, and the needs that he/she has. We, the client and I, work together to determine which treatment techniques work best.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I work with the client to determine how their thoughts might be affecting their mood and behavior.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
I work with the client to solve current problems by determining their wants and then highlighting their strengths & abilities.
Reality Therapy
I work with the client to determine if basic needs are being met by what they are currently doing.
