Therapists in Florida

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist with over 20 years of counseling in various settings. I have worked with troubled teens and their parents, individuals, families and couples. Although, I have been counseling professionally since my undergrad in 1990, I started counseling from the kindergarten playground, always desiring to assist with finding solutions to life's woes. Some of the areas of concern that I have addressed include depression, HIV/AIDS, adolescent concerns, anger, anxiety, family conflict, loss, blended families and many other areas of concern that affect families. My counseling style is very welcoming and interactive. I believe in empowering the client and not making them feel judged. I remind myself that when working with a client I may be the only person in their life capable of both hearing and holding their pain, I don't take that for granted. I look forward to working with you!

Welcome! My name is Jocelyn, I am a licensed mental health counselor and qualified supervisor in the state of Florida (LMHC-QS). I also currently hold a credential as a Board Certified Art Therapist (ATR-BC). I have a BA in Experimental Psychology with a minor in Counseling and a MPS (Master of Professional Studies) in Art Therapy and Creativity Development. I have experience working with life transitions, interpersonal development, addictions and anger-management. Navigating goals for Depression, Anxiety, personality disorders and Bipolar symptoms are also areas where I've gained significant experience. Mostly, I've developed an expertise in coping mechanisms through my current work. Therapy and counseling should be a judgement-free zone! My past experience working with those using sexualized coping has allowed for expansive knowledge and understanding of topics we can often find 'embarrassing'. I find myself to be a person-centered therapist who tries to assess what methods best suit each client, individually. I have been working in a hospital setting within intensive outpatient programs for the last 3 years. My methods are wide spread, as I have experience working with cognitive behavioral therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, motivational interviewing and Art Therapy practices. My background in Art Therapy offers new perspectives into the therapeutic environment. Because we use verbal and written language to communicate on a daily basis, using a creative modality to communicate can eliminate pressure and fear of judgement. Creating something visual offers deeper insight for both the client and counselor. Sometimes, we can't find the exact right words to describe how we're feeling or what we're going through. Sometimes, we just need a place to unload all the gunk we shouldn't be carrying with us throughout our days. Plus, making art is enjoyable! This goes along with my motto of making progress fun! Using visual expression can help to unblock and clear the way for the good stuff. Counseling and/or therapy should be the client's process. I like to create an environment where we are working together in an effort to meet the goals you have established, and creating a trusting therapeutic relationship. My role is to help guide you toward some insights about what's at the root of how you're feeling, not to give you the answers. That way, you can make informed/educated decisions about what will be the best choices, and be able to make similar decisions more confidently later on.

Welcome! Starting as a peer mediator in 5th grade, the people around me saw something greater in me. I am now a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with over 7 years of experience working with client's from infants to late adulthood. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and parenting problems. I have helped many people who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse, and am also adoption competent. Coupled with CBT, my approach tends to be person centered and solution focused. I am considered an eclectic counselor as I tend to use different techniques and modalities; play is one of my favorites. As standard a practice, I believe you can change as long as you're willing to put in the work! I meet you where you are, move at your pace, and help work to destigmatize you of any labels. Then, we can move in the direction of positive growth. Counseling only works if you do! It takes courage to seek more for yourself and to take steps towards change. It’s my pleasure to help you find your missing peace. I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!
