ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. Ponte Vedra Counseling & Wellness is a private counseling and therapy practice dedicated to the goal of helping every client reach maximal happiness and wellness in all aspects of their life. Whether it be stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, conflicts, trouble with work or school, or simply needing a confidential source for guidance, our therapists welcome the chance to help find resolutions to your problems based on current and effective treatment protocols. We see children, teens and adults, in all types of counseling - individual, couple/marital, and family.
With a trauma-focused background, there is virtually nothing I haven't encountered. Everyone's story is rich with color, and every client has personal strengths; however, many have lost the ability to see their strengths and are focusing on what is "wrong." Job satisfaction is finding the best in everyone, and encouraging them to see the best in themselves.
What my clients would say they find unique about me that differs from other counseling practices or therapists is my dedication to them as individuals. I treat everyone like I would a family member, and my time spent outside of session often equals my time face to face. It has become a common occurence to start with one family member, but seeing everyone.
