Welcome! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker that is dually licensed in Florida and Arizona and am originally from California where I obtained my Bachelor's in Psychology. My background in social work, along with my counseling experience gives me a better understanding of all of the external factors that can contribute to an individual's mental health. I have been working in the mental health field for the past nine years with children, adolescents, and families in an outpatient setting. My experience has consisted of treating childhood disorders, improving family relationships, parenting techniques, psycho-education regarding mental illness, perinatal depression and anxiety, postpartum depression, couples counseling, adolescent changes, and stress management. I utilize a strengths based, solutions focused treatment to therapy, incorporating cognitive behavioral therapy as well. I have found that our thoughts are what tend to cause us the most distress, and if we are able to recognize and change those thoughts, we can have an improved quality of life. My goals as a therapist are to make you feel safe, validated, and empowered. I approach therapy as a collaborative process, with the client setting their goals and priorities for treatment.

Later as I worked with the elderly, I taught Qigong ( body/mind exercise ) and meditation classes to improve the health of my clients. My therapeutic style centers around getting to know a person better and talk more explicitly about issues before making any therapeutic recommendations. I also am a strong advocate for teaching ' tools' for coping with stress and emotional difficulties. I've also gained training in trauma treatment because we know now that it is prevalent in our life experiences. I value compassion, persistence, and patience in working towards change. Please call or text if you have any questions. I check my messages twice daily; once in am and once in pm. But I am unavailable on Sundays. I look forward to working with you.

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. I’m Margaret Doman. I am a licensed clinical social worker. My professional training was with an emphasis in clinical social work with individuals and families, with the utilization of psychodynamic processing and therapeutic counseling models including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Rational Emotional Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy among others. From my professional experience, I bring over 34 years of experience working with people in the helping professions, including over 17 years as a clinical social worker. I have worked directly with clients of all ages, children through adolescents and adults, in a variety of settings. I have worked with clients with a variety of presenting issues and dilemmas, including depression, anxiety and stress, anger management, grief and loss, marital and relationship discord, family and parenting difficulties, trauma and emotional abuse, and mental health disorders. I have worked indirectly as a Clinical Supervisor over children's mental health programs which provided therapeutic and case management services to children who suffered displacement, separation, trauma neglect and abuse and accompanying behavioral and mental health issues. I have worked as a Program Director of an outpatient substance abuse treatment program. I have worked as a program supervisor over an adolescent respite and treatment program providing shelter, behavior modification, and individual and family counseling for troubled teens. From my personal experience I bring decades of experience, including living and working within a variety of cultures, and religious and ethnic communities, making me aware and sensitive to the nuances of individuals’ diversity and challenges. As a social worker I recognize that life, with all its possible joys and wonderment, presents us with many varied challenges and barriers to being and feeling fulfilled, happy, content, satisfied, or good and at peace with our lives and the relationships that we desire, seek, and pursue. For the most part we cope and manage to come out on top; however, life can also overwhelm us and we might find ourselves in an ever-increasing downward spiral of unhappiness, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, problems with life and relationships, and maybe a general sense of futility and hopelessness. I believe in a holistic approach to mental health therapy, taking into consideration all aspects of being a person in their particular unique environment and circumstance. My therapeutic approach is strength-based, using eclectic therapeutic techniques, providing a supportive counseling relationship, whereby you can explore and gain understanding and insights to drive your resolve, action plan, change, and growth towards that stronger, happier, functional, fulfilled you!
