Hi. I am an experienced Masters Level social worker who returned to train for my LCSW in my late 40's early 50's. Prior to that, I was a 35 year veteran of hospital based, social work and crisis intervention. This combined experience, forged a professional style based upon helping people cope with unspeakable suffering, loss and drastic life changes. This has helped shape how I approach psychotherapy in that I have seen time and time again that no pain is too great to be lessened and that there is always a solution, even small, that can help transform a life into something better. I believe that therapy works best when there is a working combination of insight and action and much of my work will involve helping you identify a next right step in addressing the challenges you face.

About me I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with 26 years of professional experience, as well as a Qualified Supervisor for new interns.

I have the ability to mend relationships, as I have brought my relationship with my wife from shambles to diamonds, and our "ship" is still moving North in the direction we both want, despite our differences and disagreements along the way. There is no more all-or-nothing thinking or engagement in back-and-forth arguments or break-ups; instead, there is peace, love, cooling off, and acceptance of our different attachment styles, love languages, personalities, and brain designs.

DISCLAIMER: Please do not book me based off of ratings or reviews. Your experience with me will be personal and UNIQUE to YOUR needs, not someone else's needs or experience. Please book me if you perceive I am the right TOOL to use and help you reach your INDIVIDUAL goals. Book me if you are seeking an action-oriented therapist who provides HOMEWORK! Book me if you have insight about your situation, some history with therapy, are seeking solution-focused steps, and are not seeking someone to solely affirm you. I may or may not be the best therapist for newcomers (depends on you) as I ask a lot of questions, which can overwhelm you if you are not used to being questioned. Questioning is to understand you and get to the root of the problem, as well as the excuses used to perpetuate the problem. I am not interested in treating symptoms but rather getting to the core of the problem. If you don't want to do the work, I am just an expensive "Friend". So please be sure that you understand my style before booking me ;-).

The good news is you are not alone and don’t have to do it alone. Utilize the resources offered in this collaborative effort in creating the life (mind, body, & soul) you deserve.

My history of clinical counseling experience includes working with children, adolescents, adults, couples and families.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida, practicing since 2014, with a Master’s degree from Florida Atlantic University (2012). Over the years, I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and with a wide range of concerns, including, anxiety, depression, grief, past trauma (emotional and physical abuse), maternal mental health, medical trauma, relationship difficulties, parenting stressors, and major life transitions. I am trained in multiple evidence-based and expressive approaches, including Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), EMDR, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Play Therapy, Sand Tray, Brazelton Touchpoints, Perinatal Mental Health, and Art Therapy techniques. This allows me to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs. I truly value walking alongside clients on their healing journey, helping them move toward the goals and life they envision. I know reaching out for support can feel like a big step, and I would be honored to be part of your path toward growth and well-being.

I am a relational therapist who works to break cycles of conflict and create relationships that feel effective and fulfilling. I bring a fluid and responsive approach, meeting clients with empathy while challenging them to dig deeper, embrace accountability, and take meaningful steps toward growth. In sessions, I help clients uncover patterns, identify blocks, self-illusion, and connect with the underlying emotions driving their struggles. I move beyond surface-level validation, guiding clients to reframe challenges and shift their perspectives. I believe in addressing what’s present and meaningful—not dwelling on blame or the past, but focusing on solutions that are effective and tailored to you. My approach is direct yet compassionate. I help clients explore what their reactions and interactions reveal about their needs, offering tools to build insight and strengthen connection. While I encourage clients to lean into discomfort as part of the process, I also ensure they feel guided and empowered to face challenges. Whether it’s improving communication, addressing conflict, or building trust, I guide clients to stop cycling through the same issues and start building the relationships they want. If you’re ready to move beyond feeling stuck, I’ll partner with you to create lasting change through honest, meaningful work.

I am a licensed mental health counselor with several years of experience in private practice. I have been working with children, teens, adults, couples and families, accompanying my clients in their processes toward achieving higher levels of wellbeing and overall health. I am a mother of two grown women, I have a rescue dog and a cat, and I practice self care by walking outdoors everyday as I listen to music and enjoy nature. I am working on a couple of writing projects that hopefully I’ll share with you in the near future. I specialize in CBT, solution focus, talk therapy, and I apply skills of psycho-drama and play therapy with my youngest clients. I have helped people with anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, acculturation issues, grief, academic performance, self-image, relational issues, and LGTBQ advocacy. If you’d like to get more information, please reach out! I hope we can work together towards achieving your wellness goals! For more information please check my website: https://carolinabaldner.com/
