Find a therapist in Florida — covered by insurance

Hi, I'm Mara! Therapy can be extremely intimidating but you should be proud of yourself for taking this step! I work with clients that have post traumatic stress disorder(PTSD), depression, anxiety and mood disorders. I also have a passion for working with adoptees as I am adopted myself. I'm currently licensed in Florida (LCSW) and Ohio (LISW). I am currently accepting clients!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Hodges University and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Florida Atlantic University. I have experience working in trauma-focused settings and have provided counseling services at the Center for Trauma Counseling. I also founded my private practice, Supportive Concepts LLC, where I continue serving individuals and families in the community.

I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based therapy that helps individuals process and heal from trauma. While EMDR is widely known for treating trauma, it is also highly effective in addressing grief, anxiety, depression, and other distressing life experiences.

In addition to EMDR, I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused CBT (TF-CBT), and Play Therapy techniques. I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are navigating trauma, life transitions, anxiety, and relationship challenges.

I am a collaborative and interactive therapist that utilizes a variety of psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, motivational interviewing, EFT, and solution-focused techniques based on the individual client, their wants, needs and goals.
