Therapists in Florida

Thank you for considering counseling with me. It's a really big step, and it takes a lot of courage to ask for help. I have a Master of Social Work Degree, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida and a Certified Hypnotherapist. I practice from a holistic perspective, because I believe that our physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual experiences are all connected, and what affects one aspect also affects the others. I have had extensive training and over 25 years experience with individuals, couples, families and groups seeking counseling for issues such as trauma recovery, grief/loss issues, identity and relationship issues, anxiety/panic attacks, eating disorders, life transitions and much more. I help you access and utilize your innermost strengths and skills to move beyond your current situation, gaining insight and growth in the process. When we undergo challenging times in our lives, we can often feel isolated and alone and uncertain about where to start to make things better. It is important during challenging times to honor our feelings and be gentle and compassionate toward ourselves during the process. With compassion and understanding I'll offer the support you need to identify and utilize your strengths and skills to move beyond what you are feeling and experiencing. I’ll help you gain insight about what you're experiencing, attaining new skills and abilities in the process. Together, we will create specific goals you want to attain, and I'll give you assignments that will help you attain those goals. This can be particularly important when you are dealing with more than one specific issue, which can often be the case. At the same time, it is important to recognize that counseling is a process, and it's important to be patient and understanding with ourselves. With respect to grief/loss, it is important to recognize that not all grief involves the loss of a loved one. While we commonly think of grief as what we experience with the loss of a loved one, we also need to grieve other losses, such as the loss of a job or relationship through breakup or divorce. Also, while there are formal custom/supports that help us process our grief over the loss of a loved one, there are no such supports in place for dealing with other losses. It is all the more important at such times to seek out the support we need to help us through the grieving process. Again, it takes a lot of courage to ask for help, and I am so honored to be a part of your journey. Whatever challenges you are facing, I can help you navigate those challenges and regain a sense of control over life's circumstances and empowered to move beyond them. I'm so glad you're here, and I look forward to working with you.

I was born to be a social worker, or more accurately, I was born a social worker. I've been seeking to solve the problems of others since elementary school, mediating conflicts, seeking avenues of assistance for everyone from homeless teens to hungry neighbors. I learned early on not only the intrinsic rewards of helping those in need, but understanding the failings of society and the resulting social ills that made such responsibility necessary. I am an enthusiastic social worker/therapist with over 10 years experience providing therapeutic support to clients from diverse backgrounds managing various conditions. I have worked with clients to help them overcome feelings of depression, stress and anxiety. My goal is to equip you with real life strategies to help you develop healthy coping skills and a productive and satisfying life. You may be experiencing depression, anxiety or feeling that your life is not going in a direction you would like. It would be my honor to support you and help you work through these challenges. I utilize a variety of techniques to achieve this including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, stress management, anxiety reduction, mood management, empowerment and work/life balance strategies. My approach is interactive, warm and accepting. I work with adults and adolescents. Let's work on getting you to living your best life!

Hello my name is Kristin Rinehart. I am excited to offer counseling through BetterHelp because it gives access to counseling in different ways that traditional counseling does not. Reaching out for help for your health and wellness is so important and can be difficult to do for the first time. Good job for considering putting time into your self.

I have been a licensed independent social worker for 30 years. I am licensed in the state of Florida, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. I am passionate about treating clients of all ages struggling with trauma, anxiety, depression, stress management and life transitions. I find helping others achieve peace and happiness to be the most rewarding part of the social work profession. I have worked in settings such as community mental health, crisis residential treatment, crisis intervention, school based counseling and integrated behavioral health in a Federally Qualified Health Center. My therapy style includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Time Line Therapy, Strength and Faith based approaches.
