How do you work with clients with depression?

Hi! Thanks for checking out my page. Considering a new therapist can be overwhelming, so let me tell you a little about myself: I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker Intern which means I am qualified to provide therapy in the state of Florida. I am a wife and mom of boys, and my great privilege in life is to listen to other people's stories and support them in their personal growth through a relational and collaborative approach to therapy. A trusting therapeutic relationship can make or break your therapy experience. I do not subscribe to any one type of therapeutic modality because everyone is different and has unique needs! That being said, some conditions show improved responses with particular interventions; if I feel like I cannot provide the particular type of therapeutic intervention you need I will be up-front and honest about that, and willing to help you find another suitable therapist. I currently only offer telehealth to Florida residents and do not accept any insurance. If you cannot afford my rate I may be able to accommodate you on a sliding scale that is .01% of your income. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation if you would like more information about me or this process. Take good care.

No one had a perfect childhood. The wounds you experienced as a child do not heal on their own. They show up as unhealthy expression of emotions, unfulfilling relationships and sometimes, just pure inner chaos or confusion. We respond to these wounds like we did when we were kids, through hyper-independence, isolation, defiance, or even denial of their existence. However, what worked to keep you safe then, is no longer serving you and may in fact be keeping you stuck.

Hi there - I am the Owner and Founder of Parallels Behavioral Health. I started this practice with the community in mind.

Together, we will create goals bringing you towards living the life you want for yourself – the life you deserve. I offer mental health services via telehealth to treat a variety of mental health disorders from the comfort of your own home. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship problems or for those who are just feeling stuck and need help deciding what path to take next. I will work with you every step of the way to live the life you want for yourself – the life you deserve.
