My name is Danielle Poehlman and I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. Many of my family members have suffered from addiction, mental illness and trauma. After losing two older siblings under complicated drug and mental health related circumstances, I decided to become a therapist. After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Florida International University with a bachelor's degree in psychology, and obtaining a master's degree in mental health counseling from Capella University, this goal was finally achieved. Through my own personal growth and educational journey, I have implemented a variety of modalities to facilitate the wholistic healing of mind, body and spirit. I am a Certified Reiki Master with over 20 years of hands-on experience. I am knowledgeable on the concept of Highly Sensitive Persons or HSPs, (also known as Empaths), as I have found a large number of clients can be assisted profoundly with just simple education and practical coping strategies. My counseling style is motivational and strengths-based. My goal is to utilize profound understanding and my own empathic skills as supplements to psychotherapy in order to assist in the healing process. Through rapport and trust, we will work as a team to tailor treatment plans and therapeutic dialog to suit individual needs. I have assisted clients from a multitude of backgrounds and issues, including addiction, anxiety, grief/loss, abuse, trauma, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship issues (kink-friendly) and more. These issues do not discriminate. Those that appear the strongest often struggle the most. Those that appear joyful sometimes reach the depths of despair. There is no shame in asking for help; it is, in fact, one of the most courageous decisions you will ever make. Please reach out.

I start with the assumption that every human being has a purpose and the ability to be a productive member of society. I believe that we all have an optimal self and that it is helpful to have someone act as a mirror and a support to keep moving toward that optimal self. I primarily utilize the practice of neuropsychotherapy, although this approach leaves room for most other theories under its umbrella. My approach often employs the theory and techniques of Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, Adlerian, and Existential therapies. I believe in a healthy mind, body, and soul, and in that vein, I provide counseling in spiritual matters tailored to each client’s personal beliefs. I am proud of my formal education, and I obviously could not do this work without it. However, the key to my ability to help others has always been the education I’ve garnered through my own life experiences. I draw on both of these influences as appropriate.

Hi there, I'm Ronville! I am a licensed mental health Counselor based in Jacksonville, Florida. My statewide clients range in age from teens to seniors and have challenges with anxiety, stress, and depression. I aim to help clients mirror their actual selves with their ideal selves. My Approach to therapy is client-driven, but I use person-centered therapy, Cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy mostly. I also believe in a Holistic approach, which incorporates the total person. My style of being an approachable listening ear allows teens as well as adults to relax and know they have a safe place where they can discuss LGBTQ issues, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ODD, ADHD, Bipolar, Grief, stress/anger management, Military/veteran issues, parent-child relationship Spiritual and couples counseling. I help clients navigate life's trials by building skills as they transition in age, school, adulthood, marriage, and spirituality. My communication style is nonjudgemental, no matter where my clients are or what issue they may be dealing with. I pride myself on being a good listener, easy to talk and having a sense of humor. My journey to mental healthcare I became a therapist because I wanted to help. I love seeing the transformation when clients know what makes them tick and realize that they have the power to make changes. I have always been a therapist, whether in the military, with friends and family, in the nonprofit arena, or in spiritual settings. My approach to goal setting is that the client is in charge. I believe that clients have something in mind when the schedule and we as a team will explore, develop, and complete our goal. During the first session, the client may spend a lot of time answering questions such as what brought them to therapy, when it started, what has changed, etc. These questions are essential for developing a cohesive picture and knowing how to proceed. The first session builds a rapport by finding common ground with achievable goals.
