Welcome! I am very excited you are here. My name is Laurie Lerner. Considering counseling means at a deep level, you know you deserve better and are capable of more out of your life. Through psychotherapy, you will be able to explore one of the most important subjects in your life---yourself.
I
have dedicated myself to healing lives through my passion for
counseling for over 30 years and have the unique training,
experience and credentials to help you cope through the rough spots
in your life. I am trained in the practice of psychotherapy, holding
a Master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University in Mental Health
Counseling, one of the most respected counseling programs in the
nation. NBCC represents my certification with the National Board for
Certified Counselors, the nation’s premier professional
certification board devoted to credentialing counselors who meet the
highest standards for professional counseling. I am a Licensed
Mental Health Counselor that is recognized throughout the entire
State of Florida.
The
human experience is faced with times of challenge, change and
adversity. I believe our strength lies within our reaction to these
challenges. I will work with you to develop positive habits so you
can remain resilient and adaptable during these tough times.
Understanding the power of our own choices can be liberating,
empowering and provides a focus for change. As we work together, we
will build a partnership to facilitate clarity and growth. I believe
all of us have the power and strength within us to achieve our goals
but sometimes feel "stuck.” I will use my experience and training to
help you get "unstuck." I will join with you to improve healthy and
effective coping skills, and increase your self-understanding of
intra- and inter-personal dynamics. I will provide a nurturing space
for you to talk, explore, process, and heal. My hope is to help you
gain self-awareness and clarity in your healing. Together we will
get you moving in your desired direction. We will work to set and
revise goals. I will encourage regular feedback to ensure your needs
are being met, I will guide your focus, provide insights, and help
pace your work. With the combination of my clinical training along
with your dedication to your therapy, we can achieve the goals you
set out for your life. I do not believe we cannot heal alone.
