The word counseling is used to describe a therapeutic relationship or a collaborative effort between an individual, a couple, a family or a group and a professional who has been trained to assist people in times of hardship or crisis, or to help them grow and know themselves better. Professional counselors help clients identify the cause of their distress, set up goals and find potential solutions to problems that are causing emotional confusion. In counseling, clients learn
We offer mental health counseling for individuals, couples and families. We also offer spiritual counseling, Trager (psychophysical integration), reiki, medical qigong and laser for pain and inflammation.
Our services are offered from a holistic approach to health. We start off by evaluating body, mind and spirit, case by case. Assessment includes an extensive intake interview, assessment of movement and on the table examination. During intake, we look at background, medical history, lifestyle, nutrition, gait, motivation to introduce changes, and then on the table, we examine range of motion, limitation of movement, restrictive patterns, and energy levels.
Our professional services are also based on a systemic approach that follows the principle that the whole is more than the sum of its component parts. When we treat an individual, a couple or a family, we see them within their context; we are focused on health not on illness.
We focus on the strengths, not the weaknesses. We discuss the solutions, not focus on the problems. We do believe that we have an intelligent inner healer that, if supported, will maintain the necessary balance to grant us health.
Once the evaluation is done, we sit with the patient to build a treatment plan according to his or her need, and then we agree on a time frame for sessions, and a fee (we use a sliding scale), according to the recommended number of sessions.
We attract people who have an intrinsic reverence for life and a passionate love for learning. People who want to step out of the "pop-a-pill culture", and have decided to take responsibility for their own health by leading healthier lifestyles.
Since our vision is multidimensional, we see the body as not only physical, but also emotional, mental and spiritual, and believe that a healing arts professional needs to address all aspects of the human being to be able to provide the needed support for healing.
We also offer different kinds of educational programs that are based on the belief that each person finds identity, meaning, and purpose in life through community networking, connecting to nature, and to spiritual values such as compassion and peace.

A. Look for a licensed professional, always. Reiki practitioners, Trager practitioners, Mental Health counselors, all are required to have a license in Florida. However, there is only one way to know if the professional you're looking for can meet your needs: go for a session! Look at the practice space; feel the energy of the place; see if you can communicate well with this practitioner; pay attention to the way he or she answers your questions. Not everybody is a match for you. But the only way to find out is trying. Go shopping for your therapist.
A. If you're looking for a counselor, make sure that you find one that is really present when you're talking and that shows some compassion. If you're looking for a bodyworker or a reiki practitioner, make sure that whatever this practitioner do "feels" good, makes you feel energized or relaxed or back to balance.
A. Verify professional license; massage establishment license if bodywork is involved, and also background. A good practitioner is the product of experience plus training. Ask for qualifications.
