Therapists Beginning With V in Florida

My clients usually want to feel better faster & learn mind-body-energy-spirit tools to improve their sense of well-being naturally. They are tired of feeling a victim of genes and biochemistry. Society makes us believe that healing - our spirit, emotions, negative thought and behavior patterns - is out of our control, and drugs are our only option. The latest science (neuroplasticity, epigenetics, quantum biology, consciousness studies+) suggests otherwise, showing that our brain, bodily processes, even our genes, respond to healthy changes in thinking and feeling. And the more we are true to our deepest nature, the deeper we heal.

My greatest reward as a therapist is helping my clients explore ways to make the changes in their lives that will allow them to look forward to the future with hope. I believe that we all need someone to talk with who will really listen and accept us as we are, without judgment. I provide my clients with that warm, nonjudgmental environment-a safe place to explore the issues that may be preventing you from living the life you want. Using clinically tested and evidenced-based interventions, I have worked with over 200 individuals since 2011 in my private practice. I work exclusively with adult women.

Are you ready to make a change? Looking to figure out where your stress is coming from and heal from the inside out? I am here to lead you to manage stressors in your life and achieve your personal goals for growth. My approach is person-centered and solution-focused meaning I meet you where you are at in your journey toward healing. I want to help you see your strengths and reach your potential. I look forward to watching you make progress and helping you get to a positive outcome. Choosing to engage in therapy is not easy, and it takes commitment. You are already one step closer to self-exploration, personal growth, and healing.

You have been trying to help your child for a few months now. You are frustrated, tired and worried. All you want is for your child to feel good about themselves, get along with others and be successful. You have tried sticker charts, time-out, taking things away, talking and reasoning with them. Lately, what usually happens is you lose your patience and then regret yelling at them. You never imagined you would be looking for therapy for your child. Maybe it's the school that has suggested you get help for your child. At this point, you just want a professional to take over because you just don't know what else to do anymore.

Are there any deep disappointments lingering within you? Do you feel alone, unlovable or misunderstood? Are you struggling with your child, spouse or any other relationship? Life issues and disappointments are heavy burdens to bear alone. Thoughts and feelings of unworthiness and/or rejection were never meant for you. And, it takes a village to grow a family. These life-matters were meant to be lived with others, disappointments were meant to be shared, and not good enough feelings were meant to be challenged. Would you consider help? Would you let me be that person for you, your child or adolescent in this season of your life?

I believe that everyone has the right to live the life they imagine for themselves. Each of us has a right to feel safe, respected, protected and loved. I have been a psychotherapist for the past twenty years. I chose this profession because I wanted to continue to grow and explore life to its fullest in a work environment that generates positivity.

I focus on the client’s strengths, and goals, and explore one's thoughts, past experiences, and belief systems.

My approach to counseling is based on the integration of my professional psychological training and personal experience. I personally have overcome abuse and addictions in my own life. I believe we were created to live in healthy relationships and I love working with people to help them live closer to who they were designed to be. I believe that if we are able to experience healing within ourselves, we can live in relationship with others more freely and authentically.

I have a broad range of training and experience in different counseling approaches, including the American Psychiatric Association and World Health Organization-approved treatment modalities like EMDR (for PTSD and other trauma-related disorders), CBT, DBT, Psychoanalytic Approaches, and other traditional treatment modalities for mood disorders and addiction. My counseling practice embraces changes focusing on a more fulfilling life and coping with one’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.

Have you been feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety? Do you constantly worry about the future or worst case scenarios? Maybe it has been difficult for you to adjust to a recent life change such as starting or graduating college. Perhaps you are struggling with infertility, pregnancy loss or becoming a new mom.

Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Qualified Clinical Supervisor, and owner of Storybook Counseling. I empower women in their journey of self discovery and healing. I specialize in helping women and teen girls who feel held back by anxiety, low self-esteem, mood swings, procrastination, obsessions/compulsions and self doubt.

My approach is tailored to fit the needs of the client and assist them in identifying patterns of thought and behavior in order to gain insight on their current self.
