Hi! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I received my Masters from the University of Southern California and have been practicing for 8 years. I help young adults, adolescence, adults, and military's service members struggling with anxiety, depression, and anger management to recognize the signs of each and provide them the best treatment option to help manage anxiety, depression, and anger management.
Inn our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, information gathering, and initial exploration of their concerns.
Having with worked with young adults, adolescences, adults, and military service members for the past 8 years, I've fostered strengths crucial for building trust, facilitating meaningful change, and achieving positive therapeutic outcomes.
I love working with clients who are serious about therapy, motivated, and open-minded. I've found working with clients who are motivated and open-minded are more willing to work on their issues and more open to exploring their thoughts and feelings.

I've been using CBT with clients for the past eight years to manage their anxiety and depression. It's a helpful tool in helping clients to identify and change their negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We'll use CBT to help you become more aware of how your anxiety and depression affect your negative thought pattern and behaviors; so you can view challenging situations more clearly and respond to them in a more effective way.
I've been using Christin Counseling with clients for the past three years. I've found this to be an important topic to discuss with clients whose already within the the Christian faith who is hoping to gain further guidance and understanding in the religion itself. My focus is to help clients navigate through their spiritual concerns and everyday struggles they may encountered as a Christian.
I've been using Motivational Interviewing for the past eight years. I find it to be an effective counseling method to help clients move the through emotional stages of change necessary to find their motivation who may not be ready to commit to change. I help people resolve ambivalent feelings by identifying the motivation they need to change.
I've been using solution focused brief treatment for the past eight years to help client focus on what they want to achieve and how to get there. I've used this SFBT with clients who prefer an active role in their therapy process and who want to focus on positive change and solutions.

This was an empowering session and a much needed experience. I haven’t always trusted therapy and consider myself a self sufficient man, but today was an eye opening revelation. I don’t have to do it on my own. Shaquita listened to my story and provided sound feedback with strategies to implement outside of our session. Her stance appears to be, “Be open and willing to do the hard work, because that’s what it might require”
