More about Wayne
- 18 years' experience
- Male
- LCSW
As a licensed therapist in Florida and New York, I bring over eighteen (18) years of dedicated experience supporting individuals through complex life challenges. The last four (4) of those years are with Betterhelp. My professional approach is based on a Strengths Perspective. It centers on helping clients achieve emotional wellness, with specialized expertise in addressing depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and especially, addiction recovery. I am a Master's Level Certified Addiction Professional in Florida and a Certified Addiction & Substance Abuse Counselor in New York.
I focus on empowering individuals to develop a deeper self-understanding of themselves, to improve their communication skills, and to overcome the personal barriers in their way. My practice is particularly attuned to supporting older adults and individuals experiencing workplace challenges, isolation, and life transitions.
My therapeutic style emphasizes compassionate, goal-oriented guidance and discovery. I work collaboratively with clients to explore personal growth, to heal from past experiences, and to develop meaningful strategies in order to generate more fulfilling lives. Whether you're struggling with emotional pain, seeking purpose, or working through interpersonal challenges, we'll put our heads together and work to resolve those issues. I provide supportive, non-judgmental care in relationships that are neither normal-abnormal, ordinate-subordinate, nor superior-inferior.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
