Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker. I'm licensed in Florida and Texas. I was born in Kentucky and raised in New York. I have experienced a lot of challenges in the African American community as it relates to trauma, disguised anxiety/depression and manifesting into anger and seclusion. I have also witnessed and assisted adolescents and adults struggling with their sexual orientation. My passion is assisting clients gain self-acceptance, sustain intimate relationships and regain confidence. I have a business background and understand women issues with regard to transitioning into leadership positions. If you require coaching in this area, I am very skilled and experienced. My speciality is working with intimate relationships, break-ups, at-risk adolescents and the LGBTQ community. My plan of action is to use Person-Centered interventions, Positive Psychology, Cognitive Behavioral Techniques (CBT), Solution Focused techniques and the Gottman Method with intimate partners. If you believe you fit the mold for anything I mentioned above, believe the techniques can conquer your barrier, and you are ready to live your "Best Life" make sure to contact me. Wishing you the Best and I look forward to working with you.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida and a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist. It has been my pleasure to foster great rapport with my previous clients by helping them navigate the difficulties and challenges of their lives. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work in a wide variety of settings. I specialize in individual counseling and I have worked with children, adolescents, and families. My specialties include: anxiety, depression, substance abuse, trauma, domestic violence, and immigration/acculturation problems. My theoretical orientation is eclectic, combining cognitive-behavioral and dialectical behavioral approaches with mindfulness and motivational interviewing. My approach to therapy comes from the belief that every individual is their own expert and possesses the inner wisdom that guides them to find the right path, and my role as a counselor, is to help uncover your inner wisdom and resiliency.

I know the decision to seek therapy and to find the 'right' therapist is not an easy one. So, I do my best to provide the mental guidance and emotional balance that you may be looking for. My approach is eclectic but I think a touch of humor is essential to ease the anxieties and to bring about that elusive feeling of emotional stability. My treatment specialties include relationship problems, feelings of depression, stress and anxiety, low self esteem, along with issues connected to alcohol and substance abuse.

Hi, My name is Kiara and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of Florida. I have over 8 years of experience working in the field and I am very passionate for this work! I have worked in a variety of settings including clinics, hospitals, outpatient, in homes and addictions. I have experience working with adults, couples and teenagers who come to me for an array of reasons. I have about 5 years experience working with substance abuse and addictions for teenagers and adults as well as sexual assault and trauma. With the climate of today's world, I understand the importance of multi-cultural preferences and I am open to meeting the needs of my clients. The hardest step of the process of going to therapy, is actually taking the action to seeking support. And here you are! I would like to describe my approach to clients as very welcoming and warm. My clients provide the expectations and the goals in our sessions, my job is to offer support and guidance through the process. Counseling is about you and meeting the needs you have for yourself, not what others perpetuate your needs to be. I want you to leave my session feeling as though you are closer to meeting your goals. I use a client-centered, solution-focused approach. Much of my sessions include works from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and narrative therapy. This means, we work on what your needs are and how we can get you- your mind and body, on the same page. I am open in sessions and very engaging. I listen to you and we work together! With my personal experiences, coupled with my professional experiences, I am able to offer comfort to my client. I was a military brat, moved to over 12 different states and I have traveled to over 10 different countries. I am a professional at adaptation and being resilient as well as talking to new people. I know life is not always rainbows and sunshine, but I have learned the importance of interpretation and framing our perspectives. It makes such a difference! I am eager to start working together with you and look forward to our journey together!

The core of his counseling commitment is to work with the individual and family members to bring about relational reconciliation and personal restoration. One of my core values is a desire to hear each persons "story" We all come from unique place and it is import to me that my clients know that I value them .

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. Just a little about me: I obtained my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Otterbein College and Master of Social Work degree from The University of Pittsburgh. 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. I believe the most important aspect of a therapeutic relationship is for my clients to know they have someone on their team encouraging them to move beyond the past, live in the present while working toward reaching goals for the future. I am available for messaging, live chat and phone appointments at this time. I prefer to schedule directly with my clients so they get the appointment day and time that works best for their schedule. Video is provided as requested.

Hello and thank you for viewing my profile. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both New York and Florida, with over 27 years of experience in counseling, personal development, and mental health coaching. I approach our work together from a collaborative, strength-based perspective on mental wellness. My practice focuses on a whole-person model of care, emphasizing dignity, respect, sensitivity, and choice. I intentionally avoid stigmatizing labels and deficit-focused language, fostering a safe, non-judgmental environment where growth and healing can happen. I help adults navigating major life transitions overcome feelings of anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, low self-esteem, self-sabotaging thoughts, or limiting beliefs. Through compassionate, person-centered care, I offer practical strategies to rebuild confidence and gain clarity. Sessions are not just about talking but about developing skills and designing actionable steps toward conflict resolution, increased self-awareness of unhelpful thoughts & patterns of behavior, and decreasing negative self-talk. Together, as a team, we will create a personalized plan for meaningful growth, self-acceptance, and lasting transformation.
