Therapists in Winter Garden, FL

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Florida experienced in providing guidance, mental health, and substance abuse counseling for my clients. Since 2014, I have worked with individuals struggling with various problems with addictions, depression, anxiety, traumatic events, loss of purpose, and relationship issues. I received my Bachelor’s in Culture and Arts in 2009 and my Master’s Degree in Social Work in 2014. I gained my experience working with elderly individuals in inpatient settings, providing therapy services to families and individuals in an outpatient setting, as well as working with clients, struggling with addictions in an inpatient setting. In addition, I have worked with patients severely mentally ill by providing a safe place to share their world and seek solutions to their challenging life circumstances. I am trained in evidence based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, as well as Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy with MBSR techniques. I am fluent in English and Russian languages. Our everyday lives are filled with events that we have no control over. Some go about their lives embracing this chaos, but for others this task may seem challenging and unattainable. I believe that with proper guidance one can accept life as spontaneous chain of events and feel comfortable throughout the process of change. I do believe that without a sense of purpose life loses its meaning, therefore in my sessions I stress the importance of finding and redefining one's purpose. I offer a range of therapeutic services, all designed to help you find your way back into a peaceful and satisfying life. Whether you're looking for a change or just feel the need to talk to somebody, I am here for you.

Hello there and welcome to Bettterhelp! My name is Christal and I would love to welcome you to this platform. What is your story? Everyone has one, and it's the details of that story that has led you here today. My approach to therapy is simple. I help client's "Do Their Work." If you're ready for a breakthrough, and are ready to do your work, then I'm your counselor. It's as simple as that! If you're reading this, then you're probably in a space right now where you're trying to work through some things in your life that might be tough. I specialize in the "tough stuff" and make it my goal to help my clients do their work as they navigate through life's challenges. As a licensed mental health counselor, and marriage and family therapist I firmly believe that anyone can change. If you are here, you are one step closer to pressing towards your healing and finding the happiness that you deserve. You have now entered the judgement free zone, and once entered, you will find the support, care, and compassion that you need to help you through this tough time. Though I specialize in treating many different types of issues, (for more information please check out my specialties or simply just ask) I firmly believe that unraveling a person's story helps to develop insight and awareness, which in turn gives way to healing. YOU CANNOT HEAL WHAT YOU DON'T ACKNOWLEDGE, (and with that being said) it is my goal to help you tell your story, exactly the way that it is, in order to empower you to rewrite it. You are the author, and you hold the pen to determine what the outcome of your story will be. In this safe space, you are not just another client with just another issue. While you are working with me I want to help support you not just once a week (during our weekly scheduled sessions) but throughout the week as well. I encourage my clients to communicate as much as they need to and I make it my goal to respond to client messages within 24 hours of its delivery. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you. My Weekly Schedule Monday: 7:00am-6:00pm Tuesday: 7:00am-4:00pm Wednesday: 7:30am-6:30pm Thursday: 7:00am-6:30pm Friday: 8:00am-12:00pm Saturday: 8:00am-12:00pm *PLEASE CONTACT ME TO SCHEDULE A LIVE SESSION OUTSIDE OF THESE TIMES **TIMES ARE DISPLAYED IN EASTERN STANDARD TIME I look forward to working with you!

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. 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 majors components to our lives: biological, psychological, social, and spiritual. Effective counseling addresses all four areas, though not all at the same time.

I am a LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) currently licensed in Florida. I have 5 years experience in this capacity, as well as 24 years as a para-professional providing crisis response services (CISM, Peer Support) to First Responders (I am a retired Law Enforcement Officer with 28 years of experience). In addition to my first responder work, I have also had the pleasure of providing counseling services to many of the same people that I had arrested. I mention this because it is not where you've been or where you're at, but where you want to be. I value the person. I have worked with clients over trauma issues, anxiety, depression, coping, existential/quality of life concerns, etc. I take an integrative approach to counseling, adjusting to best serve the client's needs. I am direct and factual in my approach with clients, as I don't believe in ambiguity or leaving someone guessing. That being said, effective counseling also requires warmth, caring and support. I find that a sprinkling of appropriate humor helps to facilitate the process, but most of all, sincerity is the key to a successful collaborative experience. I bring a lot of life experience to counseling, especially trauma/crisis issues for First Responders. I do not just talk the talk, I have walked the walk.
