I am licensed in Florida with 10+ years of professional work experience combined in conflict resolution and mental health counseling. I believe that empowerment is an essential and powerful tool in the healing process. I obtained a doctoral degree in conflict resolution and a master's degree in counseling psychology. I have experience in helping clients with LGBTQ+ related issues, relationship issues, life transitions, family conflicts, coping with grief, coping with loss, motivation and self-esteem. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Hello, my name is Arlene and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) I have been working in the mental health profession for 33 years. I have experience working in various areas of counseling settings and have provided counseling for diverse populations that include different ages, genders, and diverse racial, cultural, and LGBTQ backgrounds. Through the years I have obtained knowledge with concerns including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, family/parenting difficulties as well as childhood, adolescent, and young adult adjustments. In recent years I have been trained to work with individuals who have experienced traumatic events.
I’m a licensed therapist who works with individuals and couples navigating things like anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem. I’m especially passionate about helping couples improve communication, work through intimacy concerns, and better understand each other.
My intention is to provide a judgment-free space where we can talk about what is going on and collaborate to move forwards in the best way possible. I am flexible in my approach to counseling, and I tailor my counseling style based on the needs of each person I work with. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients (age, gender, concerns, etc.) and I am passionate about what I do. I am into fitness and healthy lifestyle, and I support my clients with creating their own foundation of wellness.
