Darlene Averill

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Florida with over 6 years of experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, PTSD, career challenges, self-worth issues, and grief. I also helped many people who have experienced chronic health issues or emotional abuse.

My therapy style is warm, accepting and interactive. I believe in treating each individual with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, acceptance and commitment, psychodynamic and rational-emotive therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

Many people wonder whether online therapy can truly help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or navigating life transitions, online therapy has been shown to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person care.

One major advantage is flexibility – clients can connect in the format that fits their life best, whether by video call, phone session, live chat, or in-app messaging. That variety makes it easier to schedule sessions and maintain continuity of care.

All therapists offering online services are licensed professionals, and clients may change therapists if they prefer a different fit. Online therapy can be a practical, accessible option for many people seeking support for everyday mental health concerns.
