I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Florida experienced in providing guidance, mental health, and substance abuse counseling for my clients. Since 2014, I have worked with individuals struggling with various problems with addictions, depression, anxiety, traumatic events, loss of purpose, and relationship issues. I received my Bachelor’s in Culture and Arts in 2009 and my Master’s Degree in Social Work in 2014. I gained my experience working with elderly individuals in inpatient settings, providing therapy services to families and individuals in an outpatient setting, as well as working with clients, struggling with addictions in an inpatient setting. In addition, I have worked with patients severely mentally ill by providing a safe place to share their world and seek solutions to their challenging life circumstances. I am trained in evidence based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, as well as Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy with MBSR techniques. I am fluent in English and Russian languages. Our everyday lives are filled with events that we have no control over. Some go about their lives embracing this chaos, but for others this task may seem challenging and unattainable. I believe that with proper guidance one can accept life as spontaneous chain of events and feel comfortable throughout the process of change. I do believe that without a sense of purpose life loses its meaning, therefore in my sessions I stress the importance of finding and redefining one's purpose. I offer a range of therapeutic services, all designed to help you find your way back into a peaceful and satisfying life. Whether you're looking for a change or just feel the need to talk to somebody, I am here for you.

Hello there! My name is Linda Burrell and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) for the state of Florida. I am also a Board National Certified Counselor (NCC). I graduated at the top of my class from Nova Southeastern University and interned at Harbor House (Domestic Violence Shelter). I have many years working in the federal government for the Veterans Healthcare System, Department of Army and the Department of Navy; serving the armed forces by assisting them with their mental health and career counseling needs. I have also worked in the Social Services arena for local agencies. I come with 12 years of experience as a mental health counselor working with adults, adolescents and children in both individual and group settings. I assist individuals with a variety of issues (but not limited to) such as; PTSD, Military Sexual Trauma (MST), Substance abuse, Depression, Anxiety, Adjustment Disorder, Bipolar, Schizophrenia, Personality Disorders and family issues. I have also been extremely instrumental in helping those experiencing Domestic Abuse. My theoretical approach in most cases is Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy; but have on occasion switched my theoretical approach to meet the current need of the client. I am a believer that no one shoe size fits all and that every client is different. I am committed to working with you in helping you work through your issues. I am very genuine, empathetic and a strong believer in rapport building, trust and respect as the foundation for an effective client-provider therapeutic relationship. There may be times in the counseling session where exploration of thoughts, feelings, personal history and beliefs about one’s self may be uncovered; and at the moment it may not feel very good and even uncomfortable. However, together we can work through it. The success and outcome of the counseling depends on your willingness to be open, committed and involved in the process. I look forward to working with you; as we join forces together in helping you move towards your goals.

Greetings! My name is Markyse and I am a licensed clinical social worker. Seeking emotional support can be a daunting or awkward experience, so I pride myself in meeting my clients where they are by providing messaging, phone, or video call for our sessions. My counseling approach is empathetic, but goal-oriented and realistic. My goal is to help clients understand that there is no light at the end of the tunnel—YOU are the light in the tunnel, and through our work together you will unleash your radiance to shine, and live a happier lifestyle. You are the expert on your own life, and my goal is to create a safe space with you, filled with empathy and unconditional positive regard. I want our work together to allow you the opportunity to truly express yourself, and minimize or resolve your identified issues and stressors. I was born and raised in South Florida and graduated with a bachelor's and master's degree from Barry University. I am currently working on a PhD degree in social work. When I'm not writing papers and working with clients, I enjoy gardening, traveling, listening to music, and learning how to play the ukulele. Music is a huge part of my life, and I believe in the power of music in healing, so don't be surprised if I use music related interventions in our work together!

A part of each person already knows the solution to the issues that arise. Often that part has gone into hiding because of trauma that has occurred. It takes courage and sometimes a trusting relationship to allow that part to share. My name is Helen Cook. I'm a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. I have worked with adolescents, couples and adults during my 12 years as a counselor. My training as a nurse with 21 years in the Army, a biology teacher for 11 years and a WW (Weight Watchers) coach for 20 years has also impacted my counseling skills. Working with couples using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), training in EMDR, Brainspotting and hypnotherapy have given me many tools to help others. Mind-Body connection is also very important and I strive to identify and work this connection as often as necessary to help people heal.
