Getting to know Florence Soares-Dabalos

Reaching out to a therapist can be overwhelming. Usually, one is given a list of providers, not knowing any of them. Hopefully, I can help provide clarity in your search by sharing that I work with individuals navigating life transitions, anxiety, pet loss, and work stress. I take a client-centered approach, keeping your voice at the center. My approach Because I'm all about the client-therapist relationship, I believe in partnering with clients to help problem-solve. Working together allows us to utilize your strengths, interests, and talents without wasting time on solutions that haven't worked for you in the past. While I may be the expert in the counseling field, you're the expert on YOU! My focus Do you struggle with anxious thoughts and self-doubt? Maybe imposter syndrome says you're not good enough? I work with adults who are experiencing anxiety due to life transitions, work stress, or pet loss. Whether you're hoping to heal your grief, challenge "not good enough" thinking, or explore behavior patterns, I can help improve your well-being. My communication style When we first meet, I'll ask about your expectations and share mine so we can work as a team. I offer open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I engage in active listening and empathy, providing opportunities to reflect on your experiences and what you'd like to change. Former clients describe me as warm and safe. My journey to mental healthcare Since I was a kid, I have always wondered why people do what they do? It's why I started out as a Marketing major in college. But then I took an Intro to Psych course, and I knew this was what I wanted to do for a career. In grad school, I learned how I could use my strengths, talents, and interests to help others. Cheesy, I know. But very true! My goals for you I believe our therapeutic alliance is the most important factor in helping you meet your goals.
