Therapists in Macclenny, FL

Hi, and welcome to BetterHelp. My name is Lowell, and I am glad you found me. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker here in Florida, and I have over 20 years of experience in working in Community Behavioral Health settings, Correctional settings, Sexual Perpetrator settings, Geriatric settings, and in Private Practice. Insofar as my strengths are concerned, it is difficult to categorize, since I prefer to utilize a combination of various therapies in what I term, "Common Sense Therapy". if you are looking for someone who is down-to-earth, yet professional; open-minded, yet principled; compassionate/empathic, yet, direct; and someone with many life experiences, yet with a deep spiritual belief, then I just may be the therapist you are looking for. My education consists of a Bachelors Degree in Education from Illinois State University, and a Masters Degree in Social Work from the University of Illinois, Champaign/Urbana. My primary therapeutic interests lie in the areas of Couple Counseling, Relationship Conflicts, Transitions in Life, Sexual Abuse/Trauma, Gender Dysphoria, Anger Management, and Dissociation. It is a privilege to serve you in the hopes of assisting you in more fully enjoying the rest of your life on this planet. Feel free to contact me at your convenience, and I will always attempt to get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for choosing BetterHelp.

I have experience working with individuals (adults and adolescents), couples, and families. I am an EMDR Trained Therapist, specifically designed for trauma treatment! I assist clients having issues with anxiety, depression, gender dysphoria, substance abuse, anger management, relationship conflict, and grief. I understand that each client is unique and work with them to find the best way to achieve their goals, and thoroughly explore all treatment suggestions. Choosing counseling is usually a decision made after the client has explored other methods of resolving the issue; the goal is to find the best solution together as quickly as possible. I have had much success with adult clients suffering from anxiety and depression. I work with client's diagnosed with gender dysphoria using WPATH guidelines, and have helped many clients achieve their goals of transition. I know that not every counselor is a good fit for each client, but my clients find that sharing their unique history and details surrounding their issues with me is easy to do. This is also true with couples in conflict. After earning a Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling, I became licensed in the state of Florida as a Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I am also a National Board Certified Counselor (NBCC).

I have been practicing professional counseling since 1991. I am a licensed mental health counselor, and my license is from Florida. Much of my work has been trauma-related (both clinical and sub-clinical). As such I have worked not only with individuals who have experienced trauma, but also with their loved ones (spouse, family) so that all understand the dynamics related to trauma. For some trauma-sufferers, substance misuse has become a way of coping with the intrusive thoughts and feelings. I can help with substance misuse, also. My counseling framework/practice includes cognitive-behavioral, transtheoretical (the Stage of Change model), solution-focused, and humanistic-existential. I believe we all have four major components to our lives: biological, psychological, social, and spiritual. Effective counseling addresses all four areas, though not all at the same time.

Welcome ! My name is Corina and I hold a license in Mental Health Counseling (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I went to school at Palm Beach Atlantic University for both my under grad and masters education. Palm Beach Atlantic University is a Christian University and I feel grateful to have attended this school as it has created the person I am today. I believe that my faith has developed me as the counselor I am today and I function with that mentality in counseling. Jesus is the great counselor and I believe that we are to be the hands and feet of Jesus. I have been working in the counseling field for 8 years and have been licensed for 4 of those years. I have worked the majority of my career in an in-patient addictions center and have expanded to out-patient and in home therapy with a couple different community agencies. In those agencies I have offered services to children from the ages of 4 to adults in their 60's, as well as family therapy. I have worked with an array of issues not limited to family conflict, relationship issues, communication, drugs and alcohol, anger, stress, coping skills and many other life issues. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a modality that I primarily work with and at times borrowing from other modalities when it is fit. My goal is to build a real, raw and positive relationship while being compassionate and empathetic. I will be sensitive but also direct in efforts to help you find solutions to your current and/or past issues. I also believe that incorporating the use coping skills, boundaries and communication will increase quality of life as well as the quality of relationships. I believe all interactions are the beginning of potential flourishing relationships. With that said, I think that as we grow in counselor and client relationship , this very relationship will better help you with your relationships with family, friends and co-workers. I am excited to meet you and to work with you as you learn new ways to live your very best life! Thank you for letting me be a part of your journey. Additional info: I prefer to do video sessions as we are able to see each other face to face and I am able to pick up on ques that are important in therapy. I am not opposed to live chat or phone call when video is not available but prefer video. If you the time that you need to meet is not available, please message me so I can accommodate you.
