Hello! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I currently work as a Clinical Supervisor but I spent the past 8 years as an outpatient therapist in family homes, schools, and private offices. I have worked with clients in the past that were working through past traumas, ADHD, depression, anxiety, family and spousal conflict, relationship concerns, attachment troubles, and everyday life struggles. I have worked with people of all ages from 6 years old to 65. My counseling style is very open, and empathetic. I am very friendly, warm, and optimistic. I'm a big supporter of inspirational quotes, and a metaphor or two, as well as love to bring humor into sessions when needed and sharing a heartwarming tiktok or two! With that, I am also a realist, so I like to be as objectively direct and honest as possible with my clients during treatment, even when it is challenging or uncomfortable. My goal is always to build a relationship with my clients first to the point that they trust me and our therapeutic relationship to do so. I am very trauma-informed and base my counseling practice on trauma models. I incorporate interventions from PolyVagal Theory, Attachment Theory, DBT, and Somatic Work. I am also Level 1 Trauma Focused-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy certified and have 3 years of training for Eco-systemic Structural Family Therapy under my belt as well. Therapy is hard-work but the benefits and outcomes are oh so amazing and worth it! Seeking treatment and the right therapist for you is the first step to healing, and tailoring your life the way you want it to go. I look forward to working with you on your journey!

Greeting! My name is Keiana and I would love to provide counseling services to you ! I have a 21 plus year track record of providing counseling services. I have worked in hospital, clinic, schools, and prison setting. I enjoy working with all populations ( e.g., children, young adults; older adults; etc). I have experience in multiple areas- metal health issues( e.g., depression; anxiety; schizophrenia; bi- polar; etc) ; anger management; phase of life changes; relationship issues; trauma, substance abuse; dual diagnosis( e.g., mental illness and substance abuse); and a host other areas. My theory of choice is the Adlerian Theory. However, I function from an eclectic approach as I used various techniques/ theory to reach my clients ( e.g., client center; cognitive behavior; brief therapy model; evidence based; mindfulness; etc). I often use the first 10 - 15 minutes of the session to process what has happen in the client's life since our last contact. The reminder of the session is used to introduce the client to techniques/ interventions he or she could utilize to mange her /his symptoms, behaviors, or environmental stressors that maybe associated the identified area of need of environmental stressors that may have occurred between sessions. Homework assignments are implement and these assignments normally consist of the client implementing the techniques/ intervention. During the next session, the client will be encouraged to reflect on the effectiveness of this technique/ intervention. My most powerful techniques are empathy, active listener, and genuine personality.

Hello! I am a licensed mental health counselor who lives in Florida. I received my M.Ed./Ed.S. degrees from the University of Florida. I have been working as a therapist in the mental health field for over 15 years in residential and outpatient treatment centers for substance abuse as well as outpatient mental health facilities. I have worked with a variety of issues that include depression, anxiety (in its many forms), existential issues and lack of meaning/purpose, addiction, trauma, identity, and low self-esteem. I have run therapy groups on these topics as well as: creating rules for happiness, communication, analyzing problems, and conflict resolution; which makes it sound like I have seen it all but I learn from my clients each day. I enjoy being able to provide mental health services to those who are struggling with life's varied possibilities and challenges. To me, therapy is an egalitarian process. I believe that you have the ability to change and find meaning in your life. I refer to myself as an existential, narrative, and reality therapist but I have also used feminist theory when needed as well as behavioral analysis. What this really means is that I am eclectic in my approach and since no two clients are the same, neither are my sessions or my approaches. I like to give assignments that speak to each individual’s unique personal makeup, so be ready to bring some creativity to our sessions! I previously sat on a statewide ethics committee, so I am sensitive an individual's ethical considerations and quandaries in their own life. I have availability to respond to messages twice a day (morning and late afternoon). I look forward to working together and taking part in your journey of self-improvement.
