50+ therapists in Florida matching your needs

I do not believe in a "one size fits all" kind of approach. While uncomfortable feelings might be a commonality (especially in today's world,) I believe we are all individuals who learn, experience, and react to situations differently. One thing I know for sure, if everything was going "great" chances are you would not be reading this bio right now. BRAVO to you for taking this monumental step and investing in yourself!!! Hi, I'm Masha Andreoni, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with 10+ years of professional experience and 48 years of lived experience. A majority of my work experience has been spent working with Veterans and Active Duty Reservists focusing on post deployment issues, substance use/abuse, and military sexual trauma. Today, I work with individuals/groups/families within a multitude of populations. Most importantly, I do not believe that individuals fit snuggly into a particular mental health "box." For example, if diagnosed with PTSD... there is a good chance that anxiety, depression, insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present. If struggling with addictions...anxiety, depression insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present (you get it). My focus/goal is to understand where you are coming from, what you hope to achieve, avoid making any particular judgements/labels, and work together as we embrace this journey of solution focused change and betterment. While I can take the time to tell you how my approach is warm, motivating, understanding, open....in the end, this is for you to decide. I can however assure you that regardless of diplomas achieved, I never stop pursuing education in this ever-changing field/world. I am here to be of service. With me comes my personality, knowledge, humor (when appropriate,) and respect! Truly looking forward to working with you.

Are you a woman, committed to your healing and self-growth journey, who shows up "put together" and is constantly there for others (maybe to the point of feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or even angry)? Do you find yourself being so independent that you do not ask others for help (emotional, financial, etc.)? Have worked on yourself already and have made great strides in your mental and emotional health? YET, do you continue to experience sadness, anxiety, difficult or unsustainable relationships, resentment, frustration with yourself, confusion, doubt, insecurity, and uncertainty about what to do to get out of unhealthy cycles present in your life? What if you could identify the ROOTS to your symptoms and instead of "managing" them, you find yourself free of them? Andrea Kupferman has over 11 years of clinical experience, helping her clients identify and HEAL the ROOT causes of their symptoms. She helps clients through a very strategic approach - focusing on these 5 main life themes: SAFETY; TRUST; POWER AND CONTROL; SELF-ESTEEM; INTIMACY. Because Andrea's approach is holistic (we work with the MIND + BODY) and structured (this is for the woman who is ready to really learn about herself and make INTENTIONAL and LONG-LASTING changes in her life) she works with her client's on a shorter term basis (between 6-12 months). If you are ready to heal, show up with an open mind and are ready to learn more about yourself in a safe space, let's connect. Within a secure space, you will be able to explore the hidden/wounded parts of yourself; becoming more aware of your life-long patterns. This will allow you to become more intentional about your choices. With the tools you learn in therapy, you will heal and begin to embody the most AUTHENTIC, CONNECTED, and JOYFUL version of yourself.
