I am a licensed mental health professional in Florida, with 20+ years of experience. My approach to therapy focuses on a positive and empowering approach, encompassing a range of techniques from different theories. I will assist you in focusing on your strengths and how you can increase your own resilience and adaptability to help you through difficult times versus focusing trying to change things beyond your control. I believe that mental health is a lifestyle, just as we need to maintain our physical health, mental health requires work and attention too. Mental health is not a 2-sided concept--it is not that you are or you are not mentally healthy, think of it as more of a continuum or spectrum with optimal functioning on end and least optimal functioning on the other end. Where is your health on the spectrum and how can we help you move more into the optimal direction? There are no quick fixes or magic cures for all that troubles you, but with some lifestyle adjustments you can improve your overall well-being. I would like to help you examine your life and create lifestyle improvements that are unique to your needs and abilities.

Welcome to BetterHelp . I commend you in reaching out to our platform for assistance. We are established professional counselors working with people with a variety of issues. Our mission is to make counseling affordable , accessible, and convenient. My name is John A. Llauget. I hold a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology from Stephen F. Austin State University and a Educational Specialist degree from University of South Florida. I also am licensed as Mental Health Counselor in Florida and licensed as Licensed Professional Counselor in Alabama. My career in mental health began in 1977 working in a psychiatric hospital ; and later as outpatient therapist in a community health center working with children, adolescents, families, and adults. I also worked as an employee assistance counselor (EAP), school counselor, associate professor at international university, and court evaluator for guardianship cases. For the last 20 years , I worked as cancer counselor with population of oncology clients helping them cope with illness, stress, and emotional issues. I've maintained an interest in martial arts, using traditional Okinawan karate to help clients develop self esteem and self control. Later as I worked with the elderly, I taught Qigong ( body/mind exercise ) and meditation classes to improve the health of my clients. My therapeutic style centers around getting to know a person better and talk more explicitly about issues before making any therapeutic recommendations. I also am a strong advocate for teaching ' tools' for coping with stress and emotional difficulties. I've also gained training in trauma treatment because we know now that it is prevalent in our life experiences. I value compassion, persistence, and patience in working towards change. Please call or text if you have any questions. I check my messages twice daily; once in am and once in pm. But I am unavailable on Sundays. I look forward to working with you. Research suggests that you will know if you are with the 'right' counselor after two sessions. I value your time and want to use it productively. Sincerely, John

Hello, I'm Nastasia! I’m a Licensed Psychotherapist with an edge, unapologetically doing what it takes to feel well, and help others do the same. I provide individual and relationship trauma therapy throughout the state of California, Florida, and Texas. I specialize in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), trauma, anxiety, and attachment. Providing individual and relationship trauma therapy, I’m one of the few providers in the San Diego and Riverside area, specializing in relationship trauma therapy—helping those in committed relationships that are affected by interpersonal symptoms associated with past trauma and PTSD. I have received professional training and certification in Neuropsychotherapy and Clinical Trauma to promote brain change for the management of post traumatic stress disorder and anxiety. Candidly, I value authenticity and transparency. I’m a survivor of trauma, and I believe connection and transparency are a large part of healing. I understand what it's like to be the one sitting on the couch, and not in the chair. Trauma is complex and therapy does heal. While I have the credentials and expertise in the treatment of trauma, I want people to know that I'm someone that really sees the person in front of me. For me, it’s about seeing people past a diagnosis or a symptom. I want people to feel seen, heard, and believed. I’m convinced there is no greater technique or practice than humanity—the collectiveness of humankind, and living amongst, and connecting with others empathetically and with compassion. —Nastasia Freeman, LMHC, LPCC, LPC, NPT-C Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul be just another human soul. - C.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with 27 years of experience. I utilize several different therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Reality Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Neuro Linguistic Programming. Humor is something else I often use in therapy. I provide brief psychotherapy, usually lasting no more than eight sessions. My job is to give you some tools to help you along your journey, and then get out of your way. My hope is that I can help you learn to cope with life's roadblocks and realize your dreams. I'm going to be honest. If you are looking to spend five years in therapy exploring everything that ever happened to you and trying to figure out who you are, I'm not your guy. I'm sure there are plenty of therapists on Better Help that will help you with that. No hard feelings:-).
