Therapists in Florida

Hi! My name is Moriah E. McCarthy. I am a licensed mental health counselor that believes in a holistic and blended approach with respect for the mind-body-spirit connection. Mental health is a pivotal component of all wellness. Treatment with me blends the exploration of the past and the deepening of insight with more concrete interventions and a forward-focused momentum. I use psycho-education and skills-building to empower clients to support themselves after counseling. Strengths and weaknesses are brought forward to integrate thoughts, feelings and actions into the whole self. I believe in collaborating with clients throughout the process. Clients feel supported and also challenged to take responsibility for their own success. When you work with me, I hope that we partner in your treatment. I value your feedback, appreciate you opening to possibilities, and taking action for greater stability. My approach is best described as client-centered and creative. Thank you so much. Let’s get started, M.E.

I understand you are dealing with XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX. Thank you for choosing to work with me. I know you have being working with these issues and complications for some time and have done your best to find a suitable solution. Seeking more resources to build on the work you have been doing is wise not weak. What I have to offer is a wealth of research education and years of experience helping others with similar problems. I can provide you with ideas, resources and encouragement that have been helpful to others in your situation. The work is still yours because you have to live your life yourself. Together we will examine whaat has not been helpful so far and where to go from there. Therapy does not happen in 30 or 45 minutes a week, it works when you work with it in your own experiences, with classes, journal and worksheets provided on the Better Help platform. You can also discuss issues, events, unexpected disruptions and similar by TXT at any time between sessions and when you return finished worksheets. I respond via TXT usually within 48 hours (except weekends and holidays) If you have any questions about using the Better Help platform, go to the help menu on the top right of your screen for client support (I hope, they do not show us the client screen) I do know it is some where on your main BetterHelp screen. Betterhelp does not give therapist any business details in general or regarding any particular client. We therapists are licensed independent contractors. The work you and I do together is not shared with Betterhelp or anyone else (exceptions explained in the consent you have signed or need to sign for us to work together.

I am an adult Mental Health counselor licensed in Florida with 6 years of experience. I have previously been the clinical residential treatment facility manager of two programs as well as a Lead Counselor in group and individual therapy. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, mood disorders, psychosis, addiction, and personality disorders. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse. My therapy style is strengths based and interactive. I utilize a compassion-focused lens in my work with clients to assist them in improving their self-love. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and dialectical behavioral. I tailor my sessions with clients to meet their specific needs by working with each individual from a person-centered foundation. I seek to empower and support my clients as they courageously embark on their journey to create a more fulfilling and happier life for themselves. I look forward to working with you!

Hello, I’m Linda Milewski, a Licensed Clinical Therapist and addiction specialist of 18 years. I hold a Masters in Social Work (MSW) and am trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Somatic Experiencing, Non Violent Communication (NVC), Trauma-informed Care and Awareness, Tibetan Sound Bowl Healing, as well as Mindfulness practices. Additionally, I hold international certifications in addiction, employee assistance, and coaching. After nearly two decades in inpatient psychiatric units, recovery facilities, mental health agencies, and wellness centers, I have helped stabilize many clients suffering from crisis, addiction, trauma, mood disorders and stress responses to various types of trauma. I developed a keen interest in various types of symptoms that create behaviors most would consider detrimental to their lives. As I travelled extensively internationally, delving deeper into the causes of suffering, I began to understand more deeply what (in the Buddhist context), “suffering” means and how we can heal from it. I began looking at the client as a “whole organism” by exploring how the body and its nervous system becomes severely compromised over time stemming from chronic stress. I have learned that when the body is relaxed through certain techniques, there is no room for stress or trauma to be held. Through regulating the body and nervous system, we create a safe and calm therapeutic space from which to find creative and authentic solutions to our daily challenges. I believe that once the body feels safe, we are supported to make deep and life-changing shifts. Non Violent Communication (NVC) is important to me. This modality supports us to speak authentically from the heart, tying in beautifully with mindfulness practices, trauma awareness and the regulation of emotions through somatic work. This method also supports us to set boundaries in ways that are compassionate for ourselves and others, enabling us to foster deeper, more authentic connection. My approach with each client is to provide support, accountability, and structure that honors and helps clients to step out into post traumatic growth. Through use of a range of techniques, tools and therapeutic approaches, I see transformations in my clients as they experience a strong feeling of overall safety and well being. I look forward to hearing from you and going on this journey of healing and self discovery with you!

I am so glad that you are here and ready to improve your life. I am a licensed clinical social worker in Florida & Tennessee. I have experience in helping clients with self-care, stress and anxiety, coping with addictions, coping with grief and loss, & parenting issues. My therapy style is warm, interactive and real. I will tailor our sessions and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. This journey is about you. Test everything. Treasure what works for you and disregard the rest. I believe in treating everyone how I would want to be treated. This is why I only take on a small caseload so that I can dedicate my time with my clients. I believe that self-awareness and mindfulness are vital components of reflecting on yourself and your behavior. In order to accept and acknowledge that you might tend to react to certain situations in a specific way, you first have to notice that it's happening. The most important relationship in your life is the one you have with yourself. Just as you know that it's important to take care of your physical well-being with a healthy diet and proper exercise, it is also important to take care of your mental and emotional well-being. Remember that your wellbeing is worth the investment of time and energy. The work you do now can pay dividends for years to come. Be kind to yourself! Every day is a new beginning. Take a deep breath, smile and start again. I generally check messages here a few times per day Mon-Fri and respond as quickly as I can. I do appreciate your patience when it takes a bit longer at times, as I may be tending to other clients or professional/personal responsibilities.
