My name is Noraliz Nagarsheth, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. I am glad you have decided to reach out for help, and I hope that BetterHelp finds the best fit to meet your unique needs. I have been a social worker since 2012. I have worked as an outpatient mental health therapist, social worker case manager, and home health care social worker before venturing into private practice as a telehealth mental health therapist. I specialize in working with individuals with a history of trauma experiencing symptoms of anxiety & depression. My preferred therapy modalities are Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral, and Solution Focused Therapy. I also received training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and often find it helpful when working with clients. My passion is to help clients find meaning in life and understand life events by searching for awareness and unraveling patterns in their emotions, thoughts, and belief systems, gaining insight into their current selves and what led them to be in the present moment. Once we unraveled the thoughts and identified the limiting beliefs, I like to find and implement strategies and techniques that would challenge those beliefs to promote new behaviors that will empower clients to live fulfilling lives. Although I have my preferences in therapy, I believe that everyone is unique in their way. My goal is to utilize a therapy technique that will best fit your personality and help you accomplish your treatment goals. Let's determine if we are a good fit for each other so we can embark on this journey of self-reflection, empowerment, and behavior modification. If we embark on this journey together, I want you to be confident that if you are going through a tough time of uncertainty in your life, I am here to support you. In addition, I want us to work together to find ways to enhance your life experience and accomplish your goal of feeling better and working on other areas of interest. I aim to create a therapeutic relationship where I will listen and help you process along the journey. I will meet you where you are at all times and when you are ready to work, I will provide you with tips and strategies that we will sort out to figure out which ones will be the most effective for you to implement in your life. It may take a few tries, but I am confident that we will find the one that will help you accomplish your goals and feel empowered. I look forward to working with you.

Hi! My name is Emily and my loves are my family, adventures, and travel. Oh yeah, throw Disney, animals, sports, and cooking in there as well!! A little bit about me, I am a Midwest girl now living in Florida and my original professional pursuit in life was Meteorology (yep weather ) but having lived all over the country and sharing experiences with so many people both personally and professionally, I realized that most of us are just trying to make it through the day. This in-turn formed another love....counseling. I received my bachelor's degree from UMass and went-on to receive my Masters in Counseling/Psychology from Palm Beach Atlantic University with a concentration in Family and Forensics. I spent my early counseling years working with those in incarceration as well as providing individual counseling with both students and families at a local university, as well as a treatment center. I now work with a diverse population through a local non-profit. I am experienced in working with depression, anxiety, marital and family, parenting issues, as well as motivation and self-esteem to name a few. I have also worked extensively with care-giver issues, traumas, and addictions. As a licensed mental health counselor, I utilize many therapeutic techniques , but mostly I come from a holistic, person-centered approach that is integrative and driven by you, because what you are struggling with is unique to YOU and there is no "one perfect therapy" that fits everyone! You are awesome just by visiting this site, that itself shows you want something to change. I am the right counselor for you if you are willing to try; things can change if you want it. I also have my limitations...I can't solve your problems, but we can work on goals together for change, I also can't give you the winning lottery numbers, or wave a magic wand that all your problems will immediately go away. But I will be your cheerleader, your support, and the person who is ready to take this step with you!!!

Hello and welcome! My name is Corrin Casper and would like to first applaud you for even considering engaging in therapy! It takes a lot of courage to begin this journey, but I believe it will be an amazing one that you will find yourself growing and working towards a happy, healthier life! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida and have been in the child welfare and social services field for over 10 years. I have been privileged enough to provide services to children, adolescence, young adults, adults, and families during my career. Most of my experience lies within trauma, mental health (depression, anxiety, bipolar, etc.), and addiction and the emotional toll it takes on an individual and their supports. I consider myself to be supportive, engaging, compassionate, and communicative. But most importantly, understanding and dedicated to your journey as much as you are. It is imperative that we work as a team to conquer your barriers! I find myself drawn to motivational interviewing and client center approaches to meet you where you are and work towards what you believe is best. I am available evenings, nights, and weekends to better accommodate your schedule and meet your needs. I look forward to encouraging you, empowering you, guiding you, and even challenging you at times. Thank you for your time!

Hi, my name is Samuel. I am licensed in Florida with 5+ years of counseling experience with specialties in LGBT+/queer issues, autism, ADHD, family conflicts, and trauma. It takes a lot of strength and bravery to reach out and ask for help. I believe in treating clients with compassion and an understanding of the context of their lives. If you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, anger management, relationship or family conflict, parenting, or navigating the challenges of society, I want to help. I take an eclectic approach using person-centered, systems, trauma-informed, and CBT evidence-based frameworks while drawing from a variety of styles for the coping skills and techniques best suited for you, individually. It's important to have a counselor who will take into account your worldview and experience, including how that's affected by neurodiversity, race and culture, disability, gender, and queer identity, as well as the intersection of these. I am here to offer a safe atmosphere where you will not be judged for who you are or what you feel, and to help you build up skills in order to better the quality of your life like you deserve.
