Marianne Mccaw

I am a licensed mental health clinician in the state of Florida. I enjoy working with adults, adolescents, and children. I have had the privilege of working with foster children, adolescents, and their families who have struggled with complex trauma and attachment issues. My treatment plans include goals that address symptoms associated with trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and behaviors associated with ADHD.

My professional background began with an organization that provides mental health services for individuals and families in the foster care system. My experience has grown to serve the needs of families with adopted children as well as individuals in the community and state of Florida.

My approach as a therapist is warm, open-minded, and accepting. When therapy starts, my goal is to build trust and rapport with my clients and create a place where they can share their thoughts and feelings. I am solution-oriented and my treatment plans build on the strengths of my clients. I enjoy using creative approaches like Art Therapy as an alternative way for my clients to express their thoughts and feelings. My experience includes trauma-informed care, developing and building attachment in relationships, improving symptoms associated with anxiety and depression, and developing strategies to reduce maladaptive behaviors. Modalities I use often include CBT, TF-CBT, TBRI, Art Therapy, Sand Tray, and EMDR.

When working with my clients I build treatment plans that incorporate their strengths and interests to assist in addressing goals and objectives. I encourage my clients to identify progress as well as concerns to guide sessions and treatment. My goal is to create an environment where you feel welcome and safe enough to express your thoughts and feelings as well as what has brought you to seek therapy services. I look forward to meeting you!
