Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read my profile! Since early age, helping people have always been my passion. I completed all PsyD courses, and licensed as a LMHC in the State of Florida. In addition, I am a Registered Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor, and completed a Neuropsychology course. Through the years, I provided mental health services to people of all ages, and administered intellectual, developmental, neurological, learning disabilities, personality and vocational tests. At this time, I provide counseling to adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, career choices, aging, and cognitive difficulties. My style is to develop a non-threatening, person-centered, non-judgmental and relaxed relationship with my clients. I enjoy developing a successful outcome by creating individualized treatment. I studied Social Work at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and completed all the PsyD courses at Carlos Albizu University, located in Miami, Florida. I've been helping since the age of sixteen, first as a volunteer in different hospitals in my natal Argentina, and in Israel for AKIM, the largest organization for individuals with intellectual disabilities. In the United States I've been helping individuals and families, providing counseling, and performing psychological evaluations at the Institute for Children and Family Health, neurological evaluations at Palmwood Psychological Services and for Social Security Disability claimants. Working with Holocaust survivors at Goodman Jewish Family Services introduced me to geriatric care as well as aging issues. I believe that each person is a distinct world, with own feelings, fears, accomplishments and goals. That is why I provide tailored therapies with compassion and understanding. Congratulations for taking the first step to a better you. If you are experiencing emotional, educational or family relationship difficulties, I will be very happy to help you.

I have helped clients deal with the stresses of college, new jobs, losing jobs, moving to new places, and other difficult life changes such as break-ups or maneuvering through new relationships. I like to think of making changes internally and externally, within oneself and one's beliefs, as well as the behaviors we engage in and the environment around us. My preferences in methodologies are Cognitive Behavior Therapy and mindfulness. I believe that anyone can achieve improvement, and I believe that progress IS perfection. I like to help people enjoy their life as is, while working on achieving whatever changes and growth they set as their goals.

Welcome to a peek into my life. I am a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC), in the beautiful sunshine state of Florida. I have been blessed to have many tassels on my hat of life. I began teaching Anatomy/Biology at the high school level over 36 years ago, then became an adjunct professor in the mental health program, where due to my background in Biology I was asked to teach Human Sexuality to the counseling students. I have practiced mental health counseling for 25years, and during that time have had the opportunity to develop a great bag of tools to help with my client's metamorphosis into a confident individual. As a mental health counselor, I mainly work with couples who are dealing with communication issues as well as intimacy issues. I am often called upon to assist people dealing with parenting dilemmas. During my year's teaching and counseling, I have been blessed to develop a common sense and eclectic style of therapy. I always tailor my mode of therapy to the client's best interest. I firmly believe the client must be the focus, therefore Client-Centered Therapy is always the foundation, as I believe respect, trust, and self-awareness is essential to the client-finding their answers to their concerns. I feel each person has all the answers or solutions to their concerns or stressors within, just where God has placed them. I want to assure you that there isn't too much under the sun that I haven't seen, heard, or experienced as a counselor. I also want to assure you that this road that we are about to embark upon is a journey that we will take together; Hand in hand, side by side. I am here to support and help you as you travel this amazing trail to self-awareness I am very aware of the courage and strength that one has in order to ask a stranger for help, in such major life's trials and tribulations. I admire you for taking these first difficult steps and am excited to embark on this healing process. I am excited to get started walking along beside you as we continue to once again find your place of peace.

Find a therapist near you in Macclenny, Florida
Finding a therapist near you in Macclenny, Florida starts with matching to a licensed professional who fits your needs, schedule, and goals. Florida is home to people with diverse mental health needs across urban, suburban, and rural communities, which can make it challenging to find care. BetterHelp connects you with a licensed therapist through tailored matching, so you can begin care from home or wherever works for you.
The network includes over 30,000 licensed therapists globally, and over 4 million people have used BetterHelp to find support through online therapy. During matching, 93% of user preferences are met, which helps you connect with a therapist suited to what you are looking for. Whether you are searching for help with anxiety, trauma, affordable or insurance covered therapy, weekend or flexible scheduling, or virtual sessions, you can find a therapist and get started when you are ready.
Why work with a licensed therapist near you?
Working with a licensed therapist near you gives you access to professional mental health support from someone trained to help you understand and manage what you are going through. A licensed therapist can offer evidence-based approaches, a steady space to talk, and guidance tailored to your situation. In Florida, online therapy can make that care more accessible, since sessions happen from home or wherever you are, without the need to travel to an office. This can help if your schedule is full, if travel is difficult, or if you simply prefer a more discreet setting. You can learn more about what a therapist does on the therapist role page.
Online therapy can be especially helpful for people living across Florida, where access to in-person mental health care may vary by location.
What concerns can therapists help with?
Therapists can help with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety and stress, depression, trauma and PTSD, self-esteem and identity, people-pleasing and fear of rejection, insomnia and racing thoughts, workplace stress and burnout, substance use, parenting and co-parenting stress, grief and loss, and relationship and family challenges. Therapists on BetterHelp may draw on approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), depending on your needs and goals. You can explore support for specific concerns on pages such as generalized anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and eating disorders.
Please note that therapists on BetterHelp do not provide psychiatric medication management or formal diagnoses.
Online therapy vs. in-person therapy in Florida

In-person therapy takes place at an office and may involve travel and set appointment windows.

Both formats can support meaningful progress, so the right choice often comes down to what fits your life.
