Welcome to therapy! My name is Carla Fleischman. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), based in Florida. I commend you for taking this step to be here for yourself! I received my Masters from Grand Canyon University, and have been practicing counseling for a decade now. I enjoy helping teens that are struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress management, and life transitions. I have a background working in the public schools as a contracted mental health counselor for over three years. I am also a Certified Clinical and Transpersonal Hypnotherapist with (500) hours from the Institute of Interpersonal Hypnotherapy. I am Certified as an Integrative and Wellness Life Coach from the Integrative Wellness Academy, that emphasizes a holistic approach to coaching. I have experience implementing these skills with the teens I work with, and weaving them into my practice. I look forward to working with you on your journey.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing and what brings you into therapy. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strengths as a counselor are that I truly offer a non-judgmental, authentic, empathetic, and safe space for my clients. Therapy is guided by my clients and for the purposes of their personal, individualized growth. I meet my clients where they are at and believe in starting there in therapy. My job is to allow and guide that process symbiotically and offer any tools that can help improve their lives. ANY and ALL achievements in therapy are a result of my clients efforts to make the changes they choose in their lives. I am simply a beacon of support and guidance through the use of my knowledge and skills along their personal journey.
