I am licensed as a mental health counselor, and for the past 12 years I have specialized in therapy with children, adolescents, families, and couples, in addition to providing qualified supervision of registered mental health counseling interns. More recently, I served as the clinical director of an infant mental health program in Sarasota, Florida. I received my Master's of Arts in Clinical Counseling from Columbia International University, and have provided therapy for families and couples in their homes, outpatient office settings, and in my private practice. My approach to therapy for children and parents, and couples is attachment focused. My practice is based on the belief that we all need healthy attachments to significant people in our lives, and when we are hurting, it is then that we need others most. This is why I have found this therapeutic approach to be so effective. Relationships are at the core of our humanity.

Hello, my name is Whidden Flores. I am an LCSW who is a Certified Traumatic Stress Specialist, Grief Recovery Specialist, Certified Peer Recovery Specialist, and former Crisis Prevention Instructor. I specialize in helping people through crisis and hardship so they can come out feeling empowered while avoiding all worst case scenarios. For the past 5 years, I've worked with complex clients ranging from 12-75 with a focus on complex trauma, schizophrenia, self harm/severe depression, chronic illness- and any combination of diagnosis that requires more than "average" anxiety management. I also specialize in Narcissistic Abuse & Betrayal Trauma Recovery. I believe in being the therapist that you need and meeting you where you are at. As a consumer of mental health services and a professional, I acutely understand all aspects of recovery on a personal level and will also model health recovery values. I believe I have to earn your trust each time we meet and will work hard to show up solid and supportive regardless of situation. Therapy shouldn't just be about managing a diagnosis, it should be about transforming all aspects of your life to make you better prepared for what the future holds. We all get hit by hardship and there is no shame in seeking out help or better ways to cope. I am LGBTQA+ friendly and supportive of all alternative lifestyles. Let me create a safe space for you so you don't have to go through the worst moments of life by yourself. I very much look forward to meeting you.

Do you treat yourself poorly when you make a mistake or experience failure? Do you often notice that you have self-critical thoughts and beliefs? Do you have past experiences or traumas that may be hindering your ability to practice self-compassion? Feelings are sometimes hard to explain and even harder to deal with. Understanding why you feel a certain way can help you regain control over yourself and how you respond.

I provide compassionate, high-quality care grounded in respect, clinical knowledge, and a deep understanding of trauma. Many individuals face emotional challenges like anxiety, depression, or anger that interfere with daily functioning — often rooted in unresolved trauma or chronic stress. My goal is to support you or your loved ones in improving your quality of life and emotional well-being. I specialize in trauma-focused therapy and use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), and Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT). I also offer Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy when appropriate. EMDR can be a powerful tool for healing PTSD and does not require ongoing therapy outside of EMDR sessions unless desired. I strive to make therapy approachable and comfortable, offering a calm, welcoming space where clients feel seen and supported. Whether you’re navigating life stressors, recovering from trauma, or just need someone to talk to — I’m here to walk alongside you in your healing journey.

Our life path is full of ups and downs with unexpected twists and turns. We learn to develop a way of coping whether it is a positive or negative method to help deal with stressors or adapt to change. However, the majority of the time, we fall back on what we are accustomed to when dealing with a stressful situation or unexpected change; such as becoming confused, frustrated, emotional, withdrawing, angry, combative, or ignoring the situation and hoping the situation will just magically disappear or be resolved. Sometimes we need assistance to develop positive coping skills to deal with an unexpected changes or stressful situations. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to overcome numerous challenges. Besides treating many mental health conditions, I have specialized training in treating anxiety, career, conflict, depression, grief, self-esteem, anger management, behavior issues, stress, trauma, substance abuse, and co-occurring disorder. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Solution Focus Brief Therapy, and Strength-based therapy. I encourage collaboration from you when designing a treatment plan to ensure it is implemented properly and to increase the potential for a successful outcome. Your well-being is my priority, and I am looking forward to helping you meet your goal.

Do you seek guidance in your life at this time? Everyone has a story to tell and I'm here to listen to yours. We may not always be able to clearly see our options to manage stress, emotional pain and confusion, so beginning therapy is a great way to process these emotions and thoughts in a safe, caring and non-judgmental way. Perhaps your fears or worries about relationships, career, a sense of inadequacy or the need to be perfect are holding you back. Therapy helps to facilitate healing and growth. I welcome the opportunity to work with you to improve your sense of success and live your life to the fullest. I've been working with teens and adults for 20 years specializing in: trauma, PTSD, depression, anxiety, family/relationship conflict, loss/grief, chronic illness and self esteem.

Most of all, you're ready to rediscover your true confident self. Let's throw political correctness out and get down to business, cut through the BS, and help you solve your problems.
