FL
I am Zanita C. James, a counselor with a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University, where I graduated summa cum laude. I also hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a minor in Management from the same university. My experience includes community-based counseling, residential eating disorder care, and clinical internships supporting people with mental health and substance use concerns. I have worked with children, adolescents, and adults in individual and group settings. My background includes assessments, treatment planning, psychoeducation, crisis intervention, and helping clients build practical coping skills. My approach emphasizes empathy, active listening, confidentiality, and collaboration. I draw on solution-focused therapy and trauma-informed assessment to understand each client's needs and help identify meaningful goals. I work with clients to explore concerns, develop coping strategies, and adjust intervention plans as their needs change. I aim to provide a supportive space where clients feel heard and respected as they work toward improved mental and emotional well-being.
