About Berline
Berline Lapomarede is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of practice. She works with adults on problems such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career stress, and coping with life changes.
She trained at Florida Atlantic University where she earned a Master of Social Work. Her work has taken place in residential, outpatient, and detention settings. That variety means she has experience with common and complex reactions people bring after loss, conflict, or big transitions.
In sessions she keeps the work interactive and practical. She uses conversation to identify patterns, build skills, and test small changes people can try between meetings. When strong feelings come up she focuses on clear steps to reduce overwhelm and increase day-to-day control.
Her approach draws on methods that include client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused ideas. Those tools are used to address things like impulsivity, communication problems, guilt, isolation, and difficulties managing anger.
Berline offers services in English and Spanish. She supports people who want straightforward strategies for managing reactions, improving relationships, and handling responsibility without extra blame. To begin, people are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How sessions work
Approaches and how online sessions support them
Client-centered work focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The therapist listens, reflects, and helps people name what matters most so sessions follow their concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions; it offers concrete exercises to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding skills that reduce reactivity and help people tolerate strong emotions without acting on them.Choosing an approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to test methods and find what fits their goals and preferences. That might mean mixing techniques from different approaches and adjusting over time based on what helps most.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and matching sessions to work or caregiving schedules. They can also let people use audio-only meetings if they prefer less bandwidth or a quieter check-in. The therapist will discuss practical arrangements and pick an approach that suits the person's needs and routines.
