More about Arielle

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW, LICSW

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in the state of Florida, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the District of Columbia with three years of post-graduate experience. I have worked in both outpatient medical clinic care, acute hospital care, and with Partial Hospitalization and Intensive Outpatient Programs. I also have experience providing individual, group, and family therapy to those who have experienced trauma or are navigating grief. In addition to this, I work with clients experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship issues, career challenges and more.

I would describe my style as inviting and caring. My counseling approach combines Cognitive-Behavioral, Psychodynamic and Client-centered therapy. I will listen, support you, and provide compassion. Together, we will work to ensure our sessions and treatment plan will be unique and designed to fit your needs.

I am eager to work with you regarding issues you may be having. I understand it is not always easy to begin therapy, but I am here to help and empower you.

Outside my work as a therapist, I enjoy reading, traveling, taking yoga classes, exercising and practicing mindfulness.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

Arielle is a truly empathetic counsellor. I worked with her for over a year in dealing on issues of trauma, relationship problems, self-esteem and severe anxiety issues. This year has been truly monumental in the positive changes I made in my life thanks to the sessions I had with Arielle. She is exceptional and a truly human, non-judgemental counsellor.

Arielle helped me through a very tough section of my life and was always receptive to what I needed to talk about. She is a great listener and always has considerate and thoughtful responses, whether it be through text or through a video call. Arielle is a very caring person and was great at outlining goals to follow while dealing with difficult curcimstances.

Arielle is fantastic. I have tried other counselors and I have been able to get through so much more with her in less time and with a much better result. She gives feedback where necessary, which I rarely experience and need! I might be in Australia, but thanks to modern technology I can see her during whatever life throws at me from anywhere. Thank you for all of your support and care! You have made such a difference in my life and I am so glad that I have found you :)

I loved working with Arielle. She is so kind and she actually listens. It was the best experience working with her as a counsellor, but also as a friend. I could tell her everything, despite the fact that I barely knew her. She is amazing. I got lots of helpful advice from her. But the most important thing was that she was always there for me to listen and just talk or chat. Wonderfull person!
