More about William

- LCSW
I am licensed in Florida with 25 years of professional work experience.
I have worked for 7 years at a residential substance abuse treatment facility, treating substance abuse, bipolar, depression, anxiety, anger management and resentment issues to list a few. I prefer to work with clients age 18 to 98 where I have the most experience.
I have also worked for a major medical insurance provider's "Special Needs Program" for clients who have Medicare and Medicaid develop coping skills to improve their quality of life. I have also worked as a crisis counselor for Military One Source for 3 years, helping clients work through stressful issues in their lives. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
