Transgender Therapists in 33403

I am a licensed clinical social worker with 20+ years of therapeutic experience with children, teens and adults and 12+ years working with transgender individuals. I specialize providing informed and up-to-date support to trans and non binary individuals in a safe, affirming therapeutic setting. Through an affirmative and trauma informed lens, I support trans individuals and their loved ones as they navigate the often complex emotions associated with living authentically. My services include writing any necessary clinical letters, offering resources, and providing emotional support throughout a client's gender journey.

I truly believe anyone can make a life worth living no matter where they start or where they want to go. If you want to make a change and need support, let me provide an individualized place of acceptance where healing and growth can happen. I work from a systems perspective, which recognizes not only your unique inner self, but how your environment and the systems you exist in profoundly affect your life.

What does unresolved trauma do to us? Are you feeling numb, shut down or agitated and on high alert? If this resonates, most of us have experienced a traumatic event - what makes the difference in how you recover is the kind of support you have in your life. Experiencing trauma, abuse or neglect often leaves us with fewer internal resources to deal with the impact. This can lead to unhealthy ways of dealing with the pain such as addictions, depression, destructive relationships, isolation. Using modern therapy modalities (IFS), I can help you process your pain and find joy again. Please reach out, let me help guide you to healing.

Do you feel like you're not living life to your fullest potential? Are you struggling with nervousness? Do you have a goal of achieving happiness? For over a decade I have had the pleasure of helping hundreds of people throughout South Florida as a social worker, addictions therapist, trauma specialist & sexologist. I specialize in working through alcohol/drug abuse, mood disorders, trauma, relationship & sexual issues. I also assist adults who were adopted/ foster care as a child, & have expertise working with the LGBTQ population. My mission is to empower people in a nurturing environment to gain self-acceptance and confidence.

Are you ready to be compassionately challenged? I am a trauma-informed therapist and I work really hard to see what life is like through your lenses. I have worked with clients struggling with mood disorders, acute and chronic trauma, family issues, identity issues, substance abuse, addiction, personality disorders and more. I am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and incorporate a lot of these skills into the treatment experience. I want to help people who are struggling with the curve balls that life throws us. You're not in this alone, I promise.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and certified recovery coach. I work with clients who are struggling with addiction/ substance use disorder, depression, anxiety, trauma and other related mental health issues that are affecting their ability to function and thrive in life. I also work with families who are struggling relating to each other and work to help them resolve conflicts and open lines of communication between all family members.

Therapy can be intimidating to consider when you are having difficulty with elements of your life or relationships. Particularly during these uncertain times. I applaud you for taking the important step of researching the right clinician for you. My goal is to understand you as a person on your journey of growth, acceptance and change. You will not be treated as a set of symptoms or a diagnosis. We will approach your unique challenges/opportunities in a honest and trusting environment. I hope you gain a deeper awareness of yourself and greater confidence in your ability to reconcile the past, and navigate your present/future.
