Culturally Sensitive Therapists in 33306

As human beings, we may go through life challenges and experience dissatisfaction, depression, anxiety, grief/loss, traumatic experiences, relationship issues, eating disorders, addiction, feeling "stuck" or "life is passing by me and I don't know where I belong." My passion is to help individuals unleash their own strengths, build/regain hope, and discover their inner potential to achieve their defined road of success. I am versatile in my therapeutic approaches, assess and determine collaboratively with the individual seeking help the best fit for him or her while utilizing an integral strength-based approach.

Do you need to address your feelings of anxiety, depression, or lack of motivation? Do you need guidance in developing positive coping strategies? Do you struggle with feelings of shame, guilt or possibly feeling misunderstood? Would you like to enhance your sense of hope and resilience?   Psychotherapy changed my life and inspired me to enhance my career path by becoming an advocate and psychotherapist to help others with mental health issues. I graduated from NSU with a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling and a Doctor of Pharmacy degree.

Do you scroll through your social media and wonder why you aren’t living your “best life”? You might say, “why does it feel like everyone else has their sh*t together and here I am, struggling to 'adult' on a good day?" Do you feel like you’ve lost your chance to live the life you always thought you'd have? Maybe you’ve achieved success, but are drowning in keeping up with your own unrelenting standards. You're exhausted from performing and disappointed that you always have to miss out. You know there is more to life than your job, but you can't seem to find that work/life balance. Life has become about keeping up versus living.

I specialize in administering neuropsychological evaluations in order to clarify my client's cognitive strengths & weaknesses, emotional symptoms, and personality. This is a comprehensive evaluation that allows me to provide my clients with specific recommendations and a treatment plan. I work with individuals who are going through a major transition in their life that is typically related to a medical diagnosis (e.g. Alzheimer's disease, Post-Concussive Disorder) but it could also involve other stressors, including health issues and academic or occupational difficulties.

When you're not feeling your best self, it’s difficult to show up in your life in a meaningful way. You miss everything! Of course, everyone wants to feel happy and confident, but it’s not easy to know exactly how to accomplish that. Sometimes we need someone to talk to; a professional to support us and show us the skills and strategies to build a successful, joyful life. We’ll guide you towards deeper self-understanding and help you skillfully manage life’s big and small challenges so that you can embody the happy & self-assured partner, parent, leader, and human that you are.

Have you ever wondered what makes for a fulfilling life? I believe it can be condensed down to two things–mental well-being & relational satisfaction. If our mind is at peace and we have satisfying and rewarding relationships, we tend to feel great! Mental well-being is about living life in accordance with your values. When your values and your actions don’t align, we often see psychological distress. This, along with the seemingly relentless pressure to present our best selves 100% of the time can lead to symptoms of anxiety/depression. Sometimes we need a little TLC. A space to slow down, be introspective, and discuss challenges.

Whether it is anxiety, depression, life transitions or addiction. You don't have to go through it alone. Here at Halcyon Counseling Services we want to help you navigate those pivotal times in life and overcome those obstacles keeping you from being your best self.

Hello! I’m Sherly. I received my Master of Social Work degree from Florida Atlantic University in 2014. My focus is to create a positive, safe, and nurturing environment to help you reach your goals and experience changes in your life. During the times when you are going through serious problems, grief, depression, anxiety and hopelessness, it may feel like it will never end. It is hard to envision a life where it subsides and you find true peace and happiness. I want to let you know that change is within reach. The step to get help is a challenging and very powerful one and you should be proud of that moment.

I know you want to be confident, easy-going, and present in your life, but you may struggle feeling overwhelmed and stuck. In order to cope effectively with life’s challenges, it’s important to understand your current patterns and the reason you’re unable to meet your goals. Then, you can begin to change them to show up as your ideal self. The problem is, it’s difficult to figure this cycle out on your own. Most of us were never taught how to communicate, manage difficult emotions, or cope in general. In therapy, I'll help you move forward, so you can begin to show up for yourself, others, and live a meaningful life.

Between the pressures of school, family, friends, social media, and all the stressors that come with being a teen or young adult, you might be thinking: something has GOT to give. When we go through tough times, we can find ourselves looking for answers in all the wrong places (eh hm TikTok doom-scrolling at 3am). Instead of hanging on the words of influencers as they dole out “life hacks,” you might be ready to invest in proper self-care via mental health therapy. Teenage and young adult years are a precious and fleeting stage of personal development; going to therapy can help navigate this phase of life with confidence.

Our mission is simple- We believe in the innate greatness of all people; that everyone has a divine purpose buried within them. Our goal is to empower and motivate each person we met so that they may awaken their inner potential.

I work with people who have gone through the same things I've gone through - divorce, remarriage, blended family & parenting struggles, grief & loss due to death and suicide, and loving & care taking of someone with a severe mental illness and/or chronic illness. Let's face it, finding a therapist is hard. You're feeling overwhelmed already and now you've got a list of people with letters after their names and little pictures. You look at the picture and wonder if that person is someone you can talk to. I've been there & it stinks! You deserve to have someone listen, someone to connect to, someone who understands your struggles.
