Therapists in Paxton, FL

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have been licensed since 1996. I have worked with clients experiencing a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, attachment related issues, and a wide variety of trauma related situations, particularly with military personnel and first responders. I also have extensive post graduate training in areas related to neuropsychology, adoption, custody, child abuse, and forensics. I am qualified as an expert in these areas in several court jurisdictions in Florida and have worked internationally as well (Japan and Europe). My doctoral research areas were Case Conceptualization and Attachment/Adult Psychopathology My counseling style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution focused, psychodynamic and developmental based counseling. I am well trained in other modalities as well. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I understand that it takes courage to seek help, and it's not easy to face fear. I do not believe that "you are your diagnosis". Rather, I will view you "as a a unique individual facing some challenges". If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Welcome and thank you. Thank you for putting yourself first – ever or perhaps in a long time. Seeking help for your health is a profound step in the healing process and a big part of self-care. I applaud you for this decision. Are you seeking internal peace and calm amidst the chaos of life? Do you feel like something is missing? Are you struggling? Do you feel misunderstood? Do you want to have stable, healthier, and happier relationships? Are you ready to take the next step? Are you ready to talk to someone who will listen and support you in your journey? Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Tina Marie Suarez. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, with 13 years of counseling experience. I have worked with children, adults, couples, and groups; however, my passion is working one-on-one with adults. I have, over the years, worked in multiple settings ranging from non-profit organizations and residential settings to para-church / church-based and private practice. My counseling style is eclectic in nature. I primarily work from a Solution-Focused Brief Therapy modality and incorporate Christian Counseling should this be something you are interested in. Additionally, I have utilized Art Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Family System Therapy, and Mindfulness Based Therapy all in a culturally sensitive atmosphere. I provide counseling in a gentle, relaxed, safe, and nonjudgmental atmosphere. Therapists do not; however, magically make the struggle or situation better. It is not easy to look within and explore the raw emotions at the core of why we respond a certain way to the situations around us. I believe the ability for positive change is inside everyone if you’re willing to look and work for it – and you've come to the right place. The genuine change you seek comes from being honest with yourself and others. Learning and accepting who we are is the first step. If you are struggling, know that there is hope, it does get better, and I can help you take those steps to a new life. I look forward to working with you!
