I am licensed in Florida with 10 years of professional work experience, but I’ve been in the mental health world for over 20. Every therapist is going to tell you they provide a safe and confidential place to share what is on your mind. That is something that should come standard with therapy like brakes on a car. You want to know if I can actually help you with your problems, and if we are going to “click.” Many people give up on therapy, because they try once with a therapist they didn’t click with. They didn’t feel comfortable, or the personalities simply clash. I can’t promise that I’m the therapist that can help you solve the issues you are bringing to therapy. I also can’t promise that our personalities will not clash. Here is what I will promise. I’m going to be real with you. I’m not going to blabber a bunch of psycho babble that isn’t practical to you. I also have a tendency to be blunt if I feel that is what is needed. Working with couples is my favorite, but at least half of my clients are individuals dealing with a wide range of general mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, loneliness, and social skills. I also love working with clients dealing with grief and loss.
