I am a counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida and have approximately 10 years experience working in the areas of substance abuse, family/couples counseling and mental health. I have lived most of my life in Georgia and worked with military families and couples for almost two years before my move to Florida. I have worked with individuals with the following concerns: anxiety, self harm, gender dysphoria, substance use disorders/addiction, co-occurring disorders, grief & loss, psychosis, PTSD, trauma, and ADHD . My counseling style is laid back and collaborative. I often like to give homework assignments to practice items that we've talked about in session, but I want you to get the most of our time together. I think that I have a very compassionate and empathetic style of confrontation and believe that rapport building is one of the most key parts of the process. I believe in a team approach as we make progress towards your goals. As a transparent note, I will not consider providing any letters or documentation until we have worked together for a consistent amount of time (no less than 6-8 sessions). I am mother to a toddler boy and have a husband who is gone for work often so my schedule is not as open as I would like. Please feel free to message me with specific requests or needs and I will accommodate as much as I can. I look forward to working with you.

I am a compassionate healer with more than 35 years of experience working with children, teens and adults in mental health, substance abuse and educational settings and in my private practice. My focus and passion in the work is based in a belief that all therapy interventions should be of value to the recipient, and all wounds and conflicts can be lessened. Skilled attention to them in a safe environment is the key, and I have studied and practiced for decades to offer that skilled environment and facilitate the journey to resolution for the people I serve. I am an experienced teacher, having presented classes for parents, infants, pre-school, and K-12 in the behavioral classroom. I've taught as an adjunct professor at the University of Maine [UMF] as well as Indian River State College. I'm also a qualified Behavioral Health assessor, having provided comprehensive assessment of infants, children and adults for the Department of Human Services and Department of Juvenile Justice, and has served many times as an expert witness. As a teacher, I have supervised student teachers in their journey to licensure, as well as supervising clinical social workers, in their internships and their journey to an independent license. I often work with children or adults who are seeking to resolve upset, related to behavioral concerns, trauma histories and life challenges including addiction. I have experience working with children with special needs and their families, working with the resolution of panic and anxiety, depression ad other mood disturbances, in individual, family or group therapy. I have worked with children separated from their families and transitioning to independence or to a new home placement. The primary focus of my work is in resolving what is presented as "the challenge" and assisting in the transition to more ease and comfort in relationships and life situations. I look forward to working with you!

Hello. My name is Dr. Marvin Silverman, Ed.D., LMHC. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. Also, my experience as a Licensed School Psychologist, at times, can be helpful with certain education related concerns. I had been in full-time private practice from 1980-2020, at which point I decided to transition to electronic forms of therapy. In those four decades in an office practice I had the pleasure of working with thousands of individuals as well as families. A good deal of my clinical time had been dedicated to working on issues such as anxiety, stress, parenting, ADHD, phobias, social anxiety, impulsivity, adoption issues, procrastination, motivation, self-esteem, and more. I have written several books and magazine articles as well as appearing on many national and local radio and TV programs over the years. Although I employ therapeutic techniques that are compatible with a particular client, I tend to favor Cognitive Behavioral Therapy/Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy when appropriate. These types of therapies help individuals reasonably interpret and react to stressors and daily frustrations. By altering one’s thoughts and interpretation of events and circumstances, many people can then react to them more comfortably and reasonably. I believe that working on issues is based on a team approach (client/therapist) where we work together to help achieve your desired goals and outcomes. Please note that I am NOT trained and do not have experience with marriage counseling, couples counseling, substance abuse, sex therapy, eating disorders, physical/sexual abuse, and intimacy issues. If you may have concerns in those realms, there are many excellent therapists on BetterHelp that are properly prepared to be of assistance. I do therapy with phone and video sessions. I have elected to not do live chat. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you.
