I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Florida and owner of ALW Counseling and Coaching. I provide flexible, person-centered therapy that helps individuals realize their ability to change and overcome their challenges. If you are coping with depression, anxiety, addiction/substance abuse, or trauma I am here to help. Therapy should be effective, uplifting, and person centered. My counseling approach combines traditional therapy techniques with a practical, problem-solving approach that assists you in seeking the inner strength needed to reach your goals. I work with adults 18 and older.
In addition to traditional therapy I am trained in Traumatic Incident Reduction (TIR). TIR can help individuals with post traumatic stress reduce the physical and psychological impact of trauma in just a few sessions. My other specialties include substance abuse, older adults/caregivers, coping with health/disability concerns, college age and young adults.
I work with individuals and couples. Limited insurances accepted. If I am "out of network" I can help you use any available OON benefits. Hours by appointment. Some evening hours available. I can also recommend one of the associates at my practice or community colleagues if we are not a fit or my availability is limited. I look forward to hearing from you.

My style is eclectic and I draw from many different approaches. This includes: Cognitive Behavioral, Mindfulness, Solution Focused, Acceptance and Commitment, Trauma Informed/Traumatic Incident Reduction, 12 Step, Harm Reduction, Dialectic Behavioral Therapy, Relational, and more. Therapy is not one size fits all and is most effective when we can explore what works best to help us reach our goals.
