Settled in the 1830s, High Springs is a small city in the county of Alachua, Florida and has a population of just over 5900. It was originally named Orion but was changed to High Springs in 1888 and was officially incorporated in 1892. The town is proud of its history and has several places on the National Register of Historic Places.

Checking out your own history is also a great idea as you can find out if you have any hereditary illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and even mental health disorders. Fortunately, the High Springs area has several excellent counselors and therapists in and around the town who can help.

Hello!! Welcome to the BetterHelp Community. My name is Winnifred Pierre and I am the Licensed Clinical Social Work practicing in West Palm Beach, Florida.

As a South Florida native and daughter of Haitian immigrants, I am passionate about providing accessible mental health services to meet the needs of individuals with culturally diverse backgrounds. I would describe my therapeutic approach as goal oriented and client centered. I believe that everyone is on different paths in the journey of life. I meet each client where they are at in their journey and work collaboratively to determine goals for treatment. I primarily use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution Focused Brief Therapy. One of my favorite quotes is "Be the change you wish to see in this world." I look forward to working with you to accomplish the changes you wish to see.

Born in New York and raised in Philadelphia, I have lived in South Florida for the past 25 years, and I've been an LCSW for 20 of them. I am comfortable talking to a wide variety of people and I enjoy discussing the stressors involved in work, in relationships, in parenting. I feel that everyone can benefit from having productive discussions about challenging issues. PLEASE NOTE - I CAN ONLY PROVIDE THERAPY TO RESIDENTS OF FLORIDA. I have been doing teletherapy for the past 3 years, and I do not maintain an office for in-person therapy. I believe the teletherapy has opened to door for so many people who would not otherwise involve themselves in a weekly or bi-weekly trek to an office. I am comfortable with what I am able to offer through teletherapy, and while I understand that there are sometimes limitations, for the most part I find clients feeling rewarded by the experience. It's a brave new world. I am happy to engage with people who are dealing with anger issues, relationship problems, adjustment issues, loss and bereavement, anxiety as well as mood dysregulation. I employ cognitive behavioral interventions when I see the opportunity, and find that these techniques can be particularly helpful with anxiety problems. Please note that I do NOT conduct sessions while clients are driving.
