About Me

Education
Hello. My name is Beth and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. My formal education includes a MS degree in Mental Health Counseling with a BA in Human Development. During this period of time, I actively served in the Army National Guard where I focused on Veteran and First Responder mental health. In addition, I have been trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy which has been found as an acceptable treatment modality in working with PTSD, phobias and anxiety.

Work Experience
My work experience includes the areas of acute mental health, working with vulnerable populations, substance abuse, individual counseling and groups. I have a special interest in treating anger, trauma, grief, and dual diagnosis.

Therapy Philosophy
My approach to therapy is meeting the client with warm positive regard. I believe that a person's life is compromised by many facets that work together forming the holistic-self or you. I am grounded in the use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) utilizing psychoeducation which teaches the client how to identify and challenge negative thoughts and emotions replacing them with healthier behaviors and thought patterns. Where some of my clients may benefit from a CBT approach, others have made progress through the utilization of Solution-Focused Brief Therapy and Trauma Informed Care.
