Getting to know Shani Hoffman

Welcome! I am Shani Hoffman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master’s in Social Work from Florida State University. I reside in Jacksonville, Florida, and provide telehealth counseling statewide. I invite you into an open and safe space to take the next steps in your journey. My primary focus is working with adults and substance use disorder/addiction, depression, and anxiety. Whether this is your first time considering therapy or telehealth—or not—my goal is to start client/person-centered care wherever you are. My approach I have an eclectic approach to therapy, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral, Solution Focused, Strength-Based, and Relational modalities to create the most comprehensive and individualized treatment plan for you. Incorporating various modalities complements your existing inner strengths, allowing you to progress forward with purpose and intention. My focus My clientele are adults with substance use disorder, addiction, anxiety, depression, and often a combination of dual diagnoses. Sometimes clients may be at a transitioning phase in life and need to process and reflect. I also have experience working with chronic pain, grief, and in treatment centers. My communication style Professionalism mixed with a casual nature creates a comfortable atmosphere. I facilitate an environment of encouragement and validation. Therapy can be challenging at times. We do the work together. My journey to mental healthcare I have always been drawn to the humanities. Social work is broad enough to bring a diversity of interest with the ability to focus on specialized areas. Understanding, acceptance, and listening skills allowed me to recognize the value of being a therapist. I have worked with a multitude of clientele and continue to learn and incorporate new research and ideas. I have a deep love for animals and appreciate the Human-Animal Bond. I thoroughly enjoy what I do.. I thoroughly enjoy what I do.
