My name is Clara Mangin, I am a licensed therapist in Florida with over 10 years of experience providing therapeutic services for adults, children/adolescents, and families in the clinic, home, and school settings. My therapeutic style involves tailoring the therapeutic space to meet each client's unique needs and identifying their specific interests and strengths in a warm, non-judgmental environment. I received my Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Florida, completed continuing education from the Florida Institute of Technology and post-graduate training earning both my LMHC and BCaBA certification with a training concentration in pediatric behavioral concerns. I have extensive experience addressing concerns associated with parenting struggles, anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, and other behavioral disorders. Utilizing cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, trauma-informed techniques, and other evidence-based practices I aim to support individuals and families in achieving their identified therapeutic goals and feel empowered to face life's challenges. I am passionate about creating a safe and engaging therapy experience for clients of all ages and would love the opportunity to help you and your family on this journey.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first few sessions together we will start with introductions and me getting to know you better, in later sessions we will dive into the specific stressors you are currently navigating which will allow us to work to create a tailored plan to guide in follow-up sessions to address these concerns. treatment goals are always subject to change based on your specific needs changing and we will work together to identify the most present stressors you want to focus on at any given time.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am passionate about working with adults, children, and families and have received specialized training in the therapeutic approaches I utilize as well as in adapting therapy techniques in a way that children and teens respond well to. I have participated in training providing both group and individual parent training services using the Incredible Years parent training model as well as Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT).

My treatment methods

Eclectic

I like to utilize a combination of books, worksheets, play, and art to keep therapy fun and engaging when working with children and teens. I will always have an activity planned but give children the opportunity to choose between activities providing them some autonomy in their therapeutic journey. In working with adults or children my goal as a therapist is to be supportive, caring, and compassionate to each client and their specific needs. I like to focus on identifying your strengths and helping you to maximize them to overcome the obstacles you are facing. I'm here to help you sort through the things that are difficult right now, and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment.
