Pamela Detlefsen
A warm hello and congratulations on taking this important step in improving your well-being and enhancing your future. Life's circumstances, our ongoing internal struggles, or both, can result in situations where we are compelled to reach out for help. This is a natural part of the human experience, especially today, in complicated times. I have 17 years of experience providing clients with compassionate guidance to identify realistic solutions for the challenges that face us all. I use varying approaches to build and enhance the therapeutic relationship. I am consistently mindful about a person's capacity and readiness to explore growth. Therapy can be invigorating and lead a person to emerge from frustrating, and, at times, demoralizing ruts. Chronic anxiety, depression, anger, drug and alcohol abuse, process addictions (shopping, food, TV are examples) are distressing and rob us of enjoying what life has to offer. There are proven pathways to well-being. In some cases, despite great effort, we are not able to see the way through a difficult situation by ourselves. This is the moment for professional intervention. By the time people seek therapy typically they have been struggling with their issues for a long while and have not been able to attain meaningful resolution. My breadth of knowledge and experience will permit us to begin working right away. I can help you get on your way to a fuller, happier life. My approach is primarily Existential Therapy, which means discussion about what is meaningful for you in the present. This involves understanding relevant parts of the past, with a view towards the future. I am well-versed in Psychodynamic and Attachment theories, which help pinpoint places in our history where false narratives about the self and the world may have taken root, leading to problems in the present. Finally, Client-Centered Theory is always part of the therapeutic environment, meaning that I will consistently monitor your timing for change and provide non-judgmental feedback and support as we go. I am a Master's graduate of a private, well-respected and accredited university where I was trained in both mental health and marital, couple, and family therapy. I also hold a certification in Addiction Counseling from another major private institution. Addictions can be more than drugs and alcohol, which means they can be overlooked or underestimated in their harmful effects. I continually read and become educated in my field to add to my fund of knowledge to serve my clients better. Let's get started finding real solutions now.

Dr. Nina Marie Maspons
I am a bilingual (English, Spanish) Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Miami-Dade County, Florida. I also have a Master of Arts in Marital and Family Therapy. My experience comes from providing direct mental health services for children, teens, adults, and couples with a variety of presenting issues including anxiety, depression, relationship and/or family issues, grief, trauma, multicultural concerns/difficulties, coping with medical diagnoses, and gender/sexual identity. The therapeutic relationship is the foundation for progress throughout the course of services. That said, I approach psychotherapy through a biopsychosocial lens that encompasses the entirety of the individual. My clinical experience spans from working with adults diagnosed with chronic medical conditions, children/adolescents with interpersonal difficulties, academic difficulties, and adjustment issues, as well as couples experiencing relationship issues. Working in South Florida has provided me with the opportunity to work with individuals from a variety of different cultures and religions; thus, it is important for me to incorporate one’s cultural identity into mental health services. My experience providing mental health services ranges across settings. Although most of my work has been in hospitals and community mental health centers, I have worked in the school system, at rehabilitation jails, and in the community conducting in-home psychotherapy services. Given my background in systems, I truly believe that one’s environment is crucial in their mental health journey. My treatment modality/approach is predominantly Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I like to incorporate psychodynamic theory (Object-Relations) and/or family systems (Bowenian, Structural) depending on the individual and the presenting problem. At the end of the day, I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative process and relationship in which you are the expert on you. My hope is that we can work towards identified goals and improved quality of life.
