However, there are skills, techniques, strategies and supports that can be used as a “toolbox” for handling not only life’s crisis moments, but for improving and enriching day to day life. Our services include comprehensive assessments, professional counseling, links to groups & workshops, as well as other resources that offer support, guidance, and encouragement. We are professional and experienced service providers that work toward the goal of achieving wellness and recovery for those we serve. We offer different skills sets and approaches to suite your needs. Our Providers Ed King, LCSW Since graduating with my Master of Social Work Degree in 1996, I have worked in a variety of settings from Skilled Nursing Homes to Juvenile Detention Centers. I was initially trained in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and also spent time working with a Psychoanalyst in Baltimore, Maryland. I now believe that Trauma is a major factor in Mental Health Treatment. Trauma (and the resulting emotional/psychological impacts it can have) is the main issue for most of the people seeking treatment, even if the person does not realize that Trauma is the cause of their symptoms. The good news is that with therapy, we can very often resolve trauma and alleviate the impact it has on people. Lauren Silver, LMHC I am a licensed mental health counselor and originally studied in New York state and graduated with a Master of Science in mental health counseling in 2012. I received graduate and post graduate experience in community mental health centers, substance abuse rehabilitation centers, skilled nursing facilities, psychiatric units and private practice. I work with individual adults and specialize in mood disorders, anxiety and narcissistic abuse as well as working with a variety of other issues such as grief, women's issues, caretaker issues, and overall wellness. I use a psychodynamic and mindfulness-based approach as well as person centered, solution focused and cognitive behavioral techniques. I am currently receiving training with Integrative Psychiatry Institute as a Psychedelic Assisted Therapist. I welcome the chance to discuss more about this new and upcoming therapy option with you. Although only Ketamine therapy is currently available in Florida, there are other psychedelic therapies approved medicinally in other states and current legislation is changing rapidly. Feel free to reach out to learn more! I greatly look forward to helping you find your balance!
