11 years of experience as a mental health therapist

Hello and welcome! My name is Sabrina Metivier. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Registered Nurse Specialist in beautiful Central Florida. I have worked professionally in a variety of settings such as inpatient and outpatient health care facilities, Universities, private practice, and not for profit organizations for over 20 years. Throughout my career as a counseling therapist and a Registered Nurse working in behavioral health care, I was afforded the opportunity to work closely with adults of all ages, college students, athletes and professionals. I also had the opportunity to travel and share my knowledge through lectures and workshops. My counseling style is welcoming, warm, interactive but also straightforward and honest. It is my goal to create a genuine relationship that is respectful, caring, direct, and cooperative. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Collaboratively working together, we will look to discover strategies, tools and solutions that work best to empower you. The therapeutic process looks different for each individual, and my belief is in finding a unique, individualized and wholistic approach for each client. I always meet the client where they are and I provide a non-judgmental safe place where healing and change can occur. We will work together to create a treatment plan specific to your unique personal goals. In my work with clients of various backgrounds and cultures, I do not spend much time processing the past (i.e., childhood experiences, past trauma, etc.). I believe that true healing comes when individuals take active steps in the therapy process and focus on what they can do in their present situation to address their current challenges. I often use Solution Focused Therapy, Person Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavior Therapy individually or combined to help my clients focus on understanding how their thoughts impact their emotions and their behaviors. I also look at the impact of their lifestyle habits such as diet, nutrition, rest and exercise, all of which affect their mental, emotional and physical health. I have a considerable amount of experience in working with individuals who have problems managing stress and managing their emotions. Additional areas of focus include a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, physical trauma and or emotional abuse, adjustment disorders (moving, new parents, job changes, divorce), new onset healthcare conditions, chronic health care issues, chronic pain, illness and disability, Co-morbidity conditions, and those who are experiencing grief and loss or relationship issues. It takes courage to take the first step towards a change. By reaching out for support and help you have already taken the first step towards improving your life and achieving your goals. I am excited at the possibility of supporting you as you move toward a transformation that can lead to a happier, more fulfilled life. Now that you are ready, let's get to work. I look forward to working with you!

30 years of experience as a mental health therapist

Thank you for checking my profile. Life can be difficult, especially in our current times. Seeking help at any age can still be a big, intimidating step but it can create the possibility and opportunity of needed change. I have helped a wide range of individuals at almost all stages of life: From teens and college aged students struggling to connect, express and deal with planning a future, to young adults in their 20s, 30s and 40s grappling with directing the arc of their lives. I’ve worked with those in their 50s and 60s reevaluating their life’s path. And finally, those 70 and up to get help and support at this later stage in life. I try to take a down to earth approach. I treat each person with respect with a good listening ear. I partner with my client to vent, sort out, organize, problem solve, gain self-understanding, and discover agency to deal with a very strange, different world. Managing stress & anxiety, navigating life transitions, coping with changes (large and small), motivation, and self-esteem parenting are all areas I have worked with. Creative problem solving and even mindfulness practices can help in many circumstances. Some describe this as a journey to find one’s self and become comfortable in one’s own skin. I’m originally from Miami with parents of mixed cultures: Hispanic, Asian, and European. This has helped my understanding of others not to mention opening up many opportunities for humor. My current client load has a great deal of diversity and working with other cultures is another area I am very comfortable with. I especially welcome anyone seeking help to help themselves. Lastly, I am licensed in Florida with 30 years of professional work experience.

If you're still unsure or are new to counseling in North Miami Beach, feel free to contact the provider via email to find out which methods they practice.

It is also important to understand that mental health professionals in the United States are accredited to provide care, helping individuals and couples, with a variety of licenses.

Regardless of their licensure, they are trained to treat individuals and couples counseling, and sometimes children, in any type of therapy in the North Miami Beach region and in the state of Florida. Find a therapist under any of these distinctions and know that the sessions they offer can provide a safe place to heal.

A mental health counselor working through their own in-person therapy practice in North Miami Beach or online may assist clients in improving healthy relationships, communication skills, working through life transitions, couples counseling, managing a mood disorder, improving coping skills, self help tips, offer life coaching, family therapy, or change in negative thinking patterns.

How do I know if online counseling is right for my family in North Miami Beach?

One of the potentially rewarding aspects of working with a North Miami Beach therapist is the validation and active listening they can provide. Your friends and loved ones may also be available to listen, but you may feel that they may lack the skills to provide objective guidance. Counselors are trained to respond to various concerns, symptoms, and mental health conditions.

North Miami Beach therapists in your city can support you toward a healthier emotional state, regardless of your mental health, life concerns, or healing needs. While supporting individuals in developing healthier habits, another good benefit of North Miami Beach therapy is having an understanding, safe space with a non-judgmental party who can support you through challenging experiences.

Many people have sensitive topics that they may feel ashamed to discuss with their friends or partner. A North Miami Beach therapist can help you confront these concerns and open up through unique methods of support. There are also many types of therapy, such as art therapy, where you may find you can express yourself through creativity instead of words with a psychotherapist.

With a lot of people in FL, therapists may be booked out with clients.

How should I prepare for my first therapy session with a North Miami Beach counselor?

Before seeing your North Miami Beach therapist, prep for your session by reading to understand the therapy process. You might write a list of questions you want to ask your psychotherapist, any emotional pain you may feel, and the ways in which you hope to improve. When you attend your session, let them know if you have any concerns about therapy or feel unsure about what to talk about. They may help guide you with open-ended therapeutic questions while offering mental health services. The first session will often serve as an intake to get to know you as a person and learn why you're attending therapy in North Miami Beach.

Should I find a therapist or psychologist for therapy if I feel fine? 

Some simply don't feel the need to see a psychologist. However, some people may avoid attending therapy due to stigma or preconceived notions of what therapy entails. Although psychologists often support people with mental health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis or condition to attend therapy. You can discuss grief, relationship concerns, stress, or life changes and ask for general feedback and advice from a therapist. A North Miami Beach licensed clinical social worker may help you gain power over your life and emotions while you navigate day-to-day experiences.

Gaining a new perspective on yourself through various therapies might allow you to improve your self-esteem, work through relationships, and gain a better sense of your mental health goals. The success you may find through therapy with a North Miami Beach counselor can be dependent on your process.

People may also attend therapy for specific motives, such as bullying, an autism diagnosis, a desire to learn mindfulness meditation, personality concerns, trouble with office workers, specific phobias, and many other principles that a counselor can help with.

Is mental health care and therapy with a therapist worth it?

Therapy with a licensed counselor is effective and has the power to change individuals' lives. Each client is at a different stage of their emotional healing journey in life, as each human can be unique in their personality, expression, skills, and goals. A psychologist can target various symptoms, experiences, and personalities to help you feel your best and put you on the path to healing. Unlike advice from a friend, family, or non-professional, a mental health therapist has an understanding of various disorders like ADHD and depression with many hours of experience in treating adults in their practice. For this reason, seeing an evidence based psychologist in North Miami Beach, Florida can be worth it. Over 41 million adults in the US attend therapy services each year, showing it's a popular option and is proven to be effective.

If you opt into online therapy, you might also be able to meet with providers all over the United States and change therapists easily at any time. Many people struggling with anxiety and depression, substance abuse, body image issues, and more find therapists that are a good fit for them, feel supported, and gain further insight into their lives through internet-based therapy.

Do therapists judge you in therapy sessions during telehealth appointments?

The boundaries between you and a therapist are in place to help you and them regarding ethical concerns. Mental health professionals are held by ethical standards through the American Psychological Association (APA) and are not allowed to judge or harm their clients. If you are concerned about sharing details about yourself, feel free to withhold personal information. Their job in the therapeutic relationship is to create a safe place, help you gain a deeper understanding of your mental health, and support you. You might consider changing counselors if you don't feel safe or respected.
