Roberta Tvenstrup

Hello, my name is Roberta Tvenstrup, LCSW. I am currently practicing as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Sarasota/Bradenton, Florida. Prior to moving south. in 2014, I had been practicing as an LICSW in the state of Rhode Island for over 20 years. My experience includes 30yrs of providing therapy and support in a multitude of settings.I have specialized training and experience with depression, stress & anxiety, PTSD, relationship & familial conflict, and adjusting to life changes.

My therapeutic approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and rooted in evidence-based care. I utilize CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and client-centered approaches to help clients navigate anxiety, life transitions, emotional pain, and unhealthy patterns with greater clarity and confidence. For clients seeking faith-based counseling, I welcome the opportunity to incorporate Christian values and principles into our therapy.

Your strengths and experiences will be drawn upon as tools in learning new approaches for coping and moving past problematic stressors and/or situations. While working with me, you will be respected and valued; I am committed to demonstrating a non-judgmental, respectful, and unbiased work ethic in all of my counseling relationships. I believe that each and every one of my clients possess their own unique inner strength and hope which will help lead us to their desired outcomes.
