I have been working with Vernise for the last 9 months, and I find her to be very supportive, attentive, thorough, and intuitive. She is a very good listener and does not make assumptions, jump to conclusions, or take over the conversation, instead allowing me to share on my terms and asking clarifying questions. Her emphasis on self-care, through helpful routines and grounding exercises have helped me through very difficult situations. Her book recommendations have also been spot on. I look forward to continuing to work with Vernise.

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with three years of professional experience. I have experience in assisting client managing their stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, helping them to increase their self-esteem, their confidence and their motivation. In addition, I am well-versed in assisting clients with depression.
My therapy style is warm and interactive. I believe in treating anyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don't believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, psychodynamic, acceptance and commitment, and solution-focused therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
I believe that you are the writer of your story which means you have the power to create your desired outcome, and you have what it takes to overcome the challenges and obstacles that can keep you from reaching your goals and dreams. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. You are in the right path. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you in your journey.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
