Psychotherapy/Counseling On a Variety
of Issues In-Person/Online/Phone
One of the most difficult decisions you or someone you know may have to make is finding a good, effective therapist. When one is struggling emotionally and is in dire need of help, the last thing you want is to have to struggle through the process of finding a good therapist. But, unless you know someone who knows a good therapist, you are usually left with having to pick a name at random from the telephone directory or from your insurance provider handbook.

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce you to my private therapy practice. I am a licensed clinical social worker and registered nurse who sees adolescents and adults in individual, couples, family, and group therapy. I also run psychoeducational groups. I have been working as a therapist since 1999 in Philadelphia, PA and relocated to Marianna, FL in August 2006. My experience includes work with depression, bipolar disorder, suicide, self-mutilation, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, adjustment disorders, personality disorders, drug and alcohol, family issues, parenting issues, relationship issues, family issues, childhood issues, trauma issues, abuse issues, loss/grief/bereavement issues, women’s issues, self-esteem issues, self-image issues, codependency and dependency issues, anger management, stress management, time management, life skills, work issues, and case management among other issues. I also have experience working with dual diagnosis clients (those with mental health and addiction issues). My focus in working with clients is to help clients gain and maintain control of themselves and their lives despite present and past obstacles, stresses, and trauma. I work with some insurance and also see clients without insurance on a sliding scale fee. There are day, evening, and weekend hours available. I can usually schedule appointments within a couple of days to a week after the initial telephone call.

I see clients in person as well as via telephone and online/internet modes. I accept most insurances and charge fees for those who do not have insurance. Reduced fees are available for clients based on income and situation.
