Hello! I’ll keep it short and simple – I love working with women, couples, veterans , infants, children, tweens, teens, and young adults – especially on issues like self-worth, relationships, anxiety, trauma, parenting, and faith/spirituality. As an educator, professional, volunteer, and counselor I have diverse experiences working with people.

Taking the first step in seeking therapy can be overwhelming and sometimes even frightening. It is my goal to provide you a safe environment by helping you feel empowered through the therapeutic process. My approach to counseling is client-centered, meaning I meet you where you are and together, we will move forward working on your issues. I tend to be direct in therapy using an integrative approach and work to empower you to access your strengths in coping with life issues; whether they are grief and loss, trauma, anxiety, depression, or substance abuse-related issues. I believe in a collaborative approach to counseling.

Hey! I’m Genevieve. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida and Colorado. I graduated from FSU and I specialize in treating trauma/PTSD, anxiety, working with the LGBTQIA+ community and coping with grief & loss. In addition to talk therapy, I offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). Through the use of skilled eye movements, I am able to treat clients struggling with acute or chronic PTSD and trauma symptoms such as nightmares, flashbacks, memory lapses, numbness, hypervigilance, irritability, and self-destructive behaviors. This special therapy aids clients in reducing trauma within 1-5 sessions on average.

Emotional Healing begins with you. You must make the choice to face your fears. Fear is crippling and results in being "stuck"emotionally. The road to recovery starts with personal discovery. My experience includes over 40 years in the field of Mental Health. I worked 8 years at a private psychiatric inpatient facility with adolescents, adults, and geriatric populations. I worked 30 years at a VA Medical Center with Veterans dealing with Addictions, Relationship conflict, Behavioral problems, Adjustment Disorders, Depression, and PTSD.

I specialize in working with Active Duty Military , Veterans , and First Responders. I've developed this niche with over 10 years of concentrated training, treatment of the Special Forces population since 2016, and serving as the Secretary and Co-Founding Member of the International Association of Fire Service Behavioral Health since 2018. My colleagues and I at the Clarity Center for Behavioral Health and Wellness (https://www.yourclaritycenter.com) understand the unique demands placed on the few who answer the call to run towards dangerous situations while others flee from them.

I have worked in mental health for over 20 years, with both teens and adults. I have provided a wide variety of support and counseling to address various mental health and adjustment issues among Veterans , individuals, families, and trauma survivors. My role as a therapist is to collaboratively identify your goals and work toward developing the skills and motivation you need to reach them. Seeking the support you need to address barriers that have impeded your ability to reach those goals alone shows strength and a desire to move your life forward.

Sometimes, difficult things happen in life, leaving you feeling overwhelmed, frustrated, or even isolated. You might try to cope with these situations by using strategies you used before, only to realize they don't work as well anymore. As a result, you may find your distress has started to affect other areas of your life (school, work, relationships, etc.) As a Clinical Psychologist, I have a lot of experience in providing evidence-based care to individuals, couples, and families who have found themselves in such situations. I also specialize in providing services to military /veteran populations and juvenile offenders.

With over 25 years experience as a psychologist, first in Pennsylvania and then 20 years in Florida, I can help others with many presenting issues, needs, or goals. I help persons sort out their thoughts, feelings, decisions, and challenges. I promote individual’s understanding of their own dynamic experiences, strengths, and areas of concern, including improving skills in relationships with others. I received my Ph.D. in psychology at P.S.U. after my internship at a psychiatric hospital. I worked as an educator & consultant at USF, as an Allied Medical Staff member 8 years at local hospitals & with Veterans .

These are difficult times. Anxiety can have a life of its own. Providing better help through online Telehealth is a 15 year specialty in my 36 year career. So many "what ifs" are a reality in many lives. What does one do when anxiety, stress and panic hit? Change from what was normal to the "now normal" can bring reactivity and stress. I offer online therapy helping clients understand their lives and the roots of their personal anxiety & stress. I provide a safe place and skills that create “breathing room” to help people break free from the grips of their anxiety, frustration, and personal and relational stress.

When relief from our distress can't come quickly enough, it can feel uncomfortable to reach out to someone you don't yet know for help. Whether you are a sleep-deprived new parent, navigating a loss in your relationships or goals, or pivoting from life's changes, it's tempting to push ourselves to muddle through on our own. Many times this leads us to being harder on ourselves than we deserve, and we are left feeling even more tired, stressed, or burned out. You deserve a space for you to just "be"... to breathe, feel, examine, heal, and experience authentic, judgment-free support.

I believe that we constantly transition from one stage in life to another, often needing assistance: child to teenager; single to married; individual to parent. I love to work with highly motivated clients who long to achieve their goals. Whether you were referred, followed the suggestion of friends, or simply wanted to explore options around therapy, I am glad you're giving me the opportunity to simplify this process for you. In a world of high professional and personal demands at times we need support to properly thrive. In Law Enforcement or Active Military ? I have worked extensively w/ both.
