American Sign Language (ASL) Therapists in Florida

Engaging in a validate and empathetic conversation can help you when you feel stressed, overwhelmed, and tired of running in circles. Mental health struggles can be difficult, distracting, exhausting mentally and doing it alone can become challenging emotionally. I’ve supported those who struggle with trauma, depression, anxiety, isolation, grief & loss, stress/anger management, relationship conflicts, and a variety of issues. I do therapy with Deaf & Hard of Hearing, children of deaf adult (CODA), interpreters or people who can use American Sign language (ASL).

Every individual is unique, whole and complete. Sometimes we have a hard time acknowledging this part and embracing who we are. Perhaps you need extra support or new tools to help navigate where you are at this moment in life. If you are seeking holistic approaches in order to release old energies on your healing journey, you've come to the right place. These approach along with thinking outside the box will empower you to figure out what works best in order to move forward.

Hello. :-) Ofrezco la terapia en español. My name is Karrissa Manchester and I provide counseling in English, Spanish, and American Sign Language. While I work with a wide population with various concerns, the majority of my work is geared toward helping people who are struggling with the effects of trauma, such as anxiety, depression, interpersonal issues, codependency, negative thought patterns, sleep disturbance, and so much more. I not only help you build coping skills to decrease distress, but I also help you get to the root of your symptoms so that you will experience long-term relief.

You may be struggling with the following questions: What is stopping me from living a fulfilled and balanced life? What is my value/worth? Am I on the right path? Why do I feel anxious for no reason? Why is it difficult for me to adapt to change? Why can't I connect with my partner? The focus of my work is helping individuals develop healthier relationships with themselves and the people in their lives. My philosophy is represented in Steve Marboli's statement: "The power to change your life lies in the simplest of steps".

Sometimes after a traumatic event or significant life change, we are left feeling powerless, uncertain of who we are or our role in life, and hopeless about how we can move forward. Maybe we have low self-esteem or even have thought about harm or death. At Empowered Living Counseling, I often see clients who have experienced trauma, are searching for their identity, and are working to take back control of their lives. I take a collaborative and non-judgmental approach to support clients in finding meaning and empowerment, safety and healing from their traumatic experiences, and figuring out who they are and what they want in life.

Throughout our lifespan, we will be faced with transitions. Children experiences changes within the family as well as school, friends, and daily routine. Then there’s puberty, which brings about a whole new set of changes in a teenager. Early adulthood is full of change, as well as a search for meaning and purpose. Marriage, divorce, birth of children, death of parents, middle age, retirement, and on and on! Sometimes we can move through these transitions smoothly; however, other times it doesn’t go quite as well.

My goal is to be able to provide a bridge between families and their schools, whether it is to give guidance to families on where to begin, offer school-related supports (e.g., counseling) that may not be available at your local school, or even try to help expedite the evaluation process by conducting comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations that parents can provide to their child's school. In addition, due to my specialty in deafness, I have advanced training and expertise in working with this specialized population that is above and beyond what most general school psychologists in the public schools have.

I know that life can be difficult to navigate on your own. You don't need to discern everything by yourself. Friends and family may or may not want to help, but their subjective guidance can only extend so far. It is sometimes necessary to reach out to professionals who can provide their professional empathic, objective guidance. I have been successfully providing counseling since 1994, to people like you, who are struggling with some of Life's many challenges. People are finding it is helpful to seek counseling. I provide both couples counseling, and individual counseling for adults. I assist people to move toward their life goals.
