Teletherapy for Fort Myers, FL

Hello, my name is Brittany Junker. I am a licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with clients of all ages: children, teens, and adults. I specialize in helping families heal, individually and as a whole. My therapeutic style lends itself to working with a diverse range of client concerns. Clients have expressed symptoms including but not limited to symptoms of ADD/ADHD, disciplinary concerns, conduct and personality disorders, symptoms of trauma, anxiety, depression, irritability, difficulty making and maintaining relationships, trouble sleeping, mood swings, angry outbursts etc.

Have you been feeling less than your best? Far to often circumstances, relationships, faulty beliefs, negative emotions or a diagnosis dictate our quality of life. At Serenity, we are passionate about providing a non-judgemental and comfortable enviroment to allow our clients to reach their goals and start to enjoy the life that they deserve. We utilize many different approaches and techniques to help our clients feel their best. We meet clients where they're at and walk with them to reach their best potential.

A Medicare Approved Provider. Also accepting Blue Cross Blue Shield and some others. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and trained to provide counseling and psychotherapy. What is the difference? Counseling is usually for more solution focused needs and can be short term. Psychotherapy is not advise. We explore deeper emotional issues, identify the causes and work toward a better understanding of yourself so that you can move on and develop healthier ways of coping with life and people. I practice CBT which is Cognitive Behavior Therapy: exploring how your thought patterns affect your feelings and behaviors.

Achieving goals becomes easier when they’re meaningful and connected to a reason and purpose — your “why.” When you connect your goal to a “why” a few things happen: You become hyper-focused on the goal by eliminating distractions or other tasks that are not in alignment with your desired outcome. Your vision and ideas become easier to outline, understand, and communicate because you’re intentionally focusing on the reason you want to do something and how it will impact you. It becomes easier to decide what you should and should not be doing because your priorities are connected to a purpose.

I use a mindfulness based cognitive-behavioral approach to help children, adolescents, and adults manage daily stressors and obstacles. I specialize in wellness and work-life balance. I have expertise in training others in use of emotional expression and body language to improve confidence, personal and business relationships, and effectiveness in sales.

Many benefits are possible from participating in counseling. Counseling can provide a fresh perspective on a difficult problem or point you in the direction of a solution. Counseling can help you find new ways to cope with stress, better manage anger, depression, and other emotional pressures. Get "unstuck" from past relationships and family issues--break old patterns and develop new ways of dealing with old issues. Heal old psychological wounds---repair damage from the past. Discover creative ways to problem-solve. Improve your self esteem and boost your self confidence. The overall result can be improved health and well being.

My therapeutic style is relaxed and I frquently use humor where appropriate! While processing life issues, traumas and other hurts, clients gain new healthier insights on old challenges and learn more effective problem solving for moving forward. Old stale patterns are replaced with heightened communication, effective relationship decisions and can demonstrate the making of smarter life choices etc. If you are feeling stuck, hurt or just need to process any issue, then its time to keep reading and choose to design your life to promote happiness and success.

I have been working in the mental health field since 2001. I began working in group homes, facilitating outpatient groups, and then decided to further my education in the mental health field. After obtaining my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, I started working in substance use facilities, community mental health, and with people that are incarcerated at the local jail. I started working in child welfare and then started at the Child Protection Team. I was the Program Coordinator at the Child Protection Team, supervising therapists and providing individual and family therapy to victims and their families.

I am uniquely qualified to assist anyone with PTSD symptoms or traumatic experiences. I provide counseling to military personnel, first responders and others that have suffered a trauma and offer a place of trust & mutual respect in which to talk. I also specialize in clients dealing with sexual addiction. I am a former police officer forced to retire after 21 years when an on-the-job injury made it impossible for me to continue working. Before retiring, I joined the Critical Incident Stress Management Team where I've continued to counsel first responders for nearly 20 years now. I am also a qualified supervisor in the State of FL.

As a clinical psychologist with over 30+ years of experience, I believe the purpose of therapy is to work together to face issues until they are resolved. It is important to feel some relief. As a good listener I have strong empathetic skills. I provide a warm, accepting and non-judgmental setting where a positive alliance can be formed. Therapy is a place to feel understood, to unload, share, but is also result oriented. Therefore, my approach is interactive. I work with children,adolescents, adults, families and couples.
