LMHC, 20 years of experience
Hi, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counsellor (LMHC) based in South Florida. I received my Masters from Nova Southeastern University in Florida and have been practicing for over 20 years. I help people of all ages struggling with symptoms of depression, anxiety and mood disorders by assiting them with developing coping skills that they can use to reduce and/or manage their symptoms better.
During our first session together, we'll start with introductions to get to know each other better so that you will feel more comfortable sharing what the issues or challenges are that you are dealing with. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
I am pretty easy to open up and talk to. My clients often feel a sense of calm and ease while sharing during sessions, their thoughts, feelings and difficult issues they may been facing.
I enjoy working with teens and adults who are actively engaged in the theraputic process and are motivated to make the necessay changes they need to have a more fulfilling life.
I like to use Solution-Focused Therapy as it is a goal-directed form of psychotherapy that focuses on helping the client discover, clarify, and accomplish their own solutions to the problems they are experincing.
I use Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with the my client's that experince anxiety and depression as it helps them identify and change the negative thoughts and behaviors that contribute to their emotional problems.
Eclectic therapy is a flexible and multifaceted approach to therapy that uses different techniques from various orientations to suit each client's needs.
