Family Therapy in South Daytona, FL

Facing & accepting experiences in life is a process that is often challenging & requires time & an emotional & mental investment.

Welcome to my page! I am David Shoots, an LCSW, DDiv and a Qualified Supervisor for MHC and CSW. I have spent the past 25 years working with Trauma, anxiety, self esteem and Veterans. I have a deep commitment in working with families and couples. I am committed to providing my clients the highest quality of care using best practices to impact those suffering from severe emotional issues, hopelessness, anxiety, depression and isolation.

Hello! My name is Bree Porter, LMHC. I have a strong passion for working with individuals, children, and couples. I value working with sensitivity for families of divorce, co-parenting struggles, and family conflict. If you grew up in a dysfunctional family or experienced abuse or neglect at any age, I have the compassion, understanding, and commitment to working with you. I will provide you with the support to help understand and work through the impact these experiences have on your life today. Common concerns that clients address in counseling include personal, emotional, professional, and relationship issues, among many others.

My clients are as eclectic as my treatment approach. No two people are alike. As a result, treatment goals vary with each individual person. My clients are not in crisis. They are high functioning individuals (ages 4-104) that are experiencing some sort of stressor in their lives. Life is full of unpredictable events including but not limited to separation, divorce, relationship issues, narcissistic abuse, loss of any kind, career changes, family issues, depression, changes in children's behavior, parenting, single parenting, recent diagnosis of mental health/ health condition, anxiety, fear, hurt and depression.

Therapy is about where you are and where you want to go. It is about acceptance of your values and the goals that you seek. Therapy doesn't have to be a long painful journey. Resolving conflicts, getting over issues, or addressing unwanted feelings should be a positive quest. I believe in short term therapy which has been successful with my Adult and Adolescent clients who experience depression, anxiety, trauma and other symptoms. Life Coaching-Therapy can help uncovering the patterns of feelings, thoughts or patterns of behavior that have interfered with our goals.

Entering therapy is similar to summoning the courage to open an over-flowing closet that has been long ignored.
