More about Coretta

  • 9 years' experience
  • Female
  • LMHC

Hello!! I'm an enthusiastic and thriving Licensed Mental Health Therapist (LMHC) in south Florida with experience of over the last 9 years. At heart, I'm a skilled encourager who humbly enjoys partnering with others on their journey in life. I have worked with clients who have found their selves in the mist of depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, hopelessness, anger, neglect, abuse, and traumatic experiences. As you partner with me on your journey, one of my messages to you is this: YOU AREN'T ALONE. Yes, there is hope in and at the end of the tunnel we sometimes face during this thing called life.

My therapeutic orientation is strengths and systematic based. I'm gentle and bold while respecting your values and personality style, and lets not leave out my compassion and positivity. My approach is holistic and faith-based (Christian) including integrating the mind, body, and spirit connection. Yet, my overall goal and approach is to meet every client where they are and help them navigate on their journey to better, greater, and wholistic living. My therapeutic modalities are that of: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Client-Center Therapy, Mindfulness, Art Therapy, and Solution Focused.

Always remember, YOU AREN'T ALONE. It takes alot of courage to reach out and grab the hand of help while enduring some of life's most uncomfortable times. Don't live another moment without partnering with someone on the other side who is eager and excited to help you towards the change you need and deserve. ARE YOU READY, let's go. I look forward to meeting you soon.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
