About me
Hi there, I'm Ronville!
I am a licensed mental health Counselor based in Jacksonville, Florida. My statewide clients range in age from teens to seniors and have challenges with anxiety, stress, and depression. I aim to help clients mirror their actual selves with their ideal selves.
My Approach to therapy is client-driven, but I use person-centered therapy, Cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy mostly. I also believe in a Holistic approach, which incorporates the total person.
My style of being an approachable listening ear allows teens as well as adults to relax and know they have a safe place where they can discuss LGBTQ issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ODD, ADHD, Bipolar, Grief, stress/anger management, Military/veteran issues, parent-child relationship Spiritual and couples counseling. I help clients navigate life's trials by building skills as they transition in age, school, adulthood, marriage, and spirituality.
My communication style is nonjudgemental, no matter where my clients are or what issue they may be dealing with. I pride myself on being a good listener, easy to talk and having a sense of humor.
My journey to mental healthcare
I became a therapist because I wanted to help. I love seeing the transformation when clients know what makes them tick and realize that they have the power to make changes. I have always been a therapist, whether in the military, with friends and family, in the nonprofit arena, or in spiritual settings.
My approach to goal setting is that the client is in charge. I believe that clients have something in mind when the schedule and we as a team will explore, develop, and complete our goal.
During the first session, the client may spend a lot of time answering questions such as what brought them to therapy, when it started, what has changed, etc. These questions are essential for developing a cohesive picture and knowing how to proceed. The first session builds a rapport by finding common ground with achievable goals.
