More about Markyse
- 5 years' experience

- LCSW
Greetings! My name is Markyse and I am a licensed clinical social worker. Seeking emotional support can be a daunting or awkward experience, so I pride myself in meeting my clients where they are by providing messaging, phone, or video call for our sessions. My counseling approach is empathetic, but goal-oriented and realistic. My goal is to help clients understand that there is no light at the end of the tunnel—YOU are the light in the tunnel, and through our work together you will unleash your radiance to shine, and live a happier lifestyle.
You are the expert on your own life, and my goal is to create a safe space with you, filled with empathy and unconditional positive regard. I want our work together to allow you the opportunity to truly express yourself, and minimize or resolve your identified issues and stressors.
I was born and raised in South Florida and graduated with a bachelor's and master's degree from Barry University. I am currently working on a PhD degree in social work. When I'm not writing papers and working with clients, I enjoy gardening, traveling, listening to music, and learning how to play the ukulele. Music is a huge part of my life, and I believe in the power of music in healing, so don't be surprised if I use music related interventions in our work together!

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.

Markyse has helped me through some big life changes and made me feel that I have support. I am so grateful for her.
I’ve only been on Better Help for a short time but already feel very “heard” and understood. She has given me realistic goals to work towards and different options of communication which is great
Markyse is sensitive to your needs and emotions and is very easy to communicate with. She is very professional while also warm and familiar. She’s a blessing to have available.
Amazing individual. Im so happy I was paired with her shes helped in so many way!
We have had only three sessions together and already I'm using some tools ,affirmations and strategies that she has helped me create for the issues I am having. Slowly creating a new mindset and way of thinking in my relationship. I'm so excited.
Very attentive and the best at getting my to work through feelings. The worksheets provided help a lot as well and she has a gift for this kind of work.
Awesome! Look no further I was going to give up on therapy until I met Markyse. Such a kind heart and truly LISTENS! she creates a safe and comfortable space and gave me practical ways to sort through my life obstacles. I’m so excited about who I am becoming through our sessions.
Markyse brings insight & expertise into our conversations!
Markyse has been incredibly helpful since day one. She takes the time to ask you questions about yourself so you can slowly feel comfortable and share with her. She’s understanding of my irrational thoughts and has given me great tools to help counter my internalized negativity. Our first session, she was engaged and I felt very heard. Not only would I recommend to a friend, but I already have!
I love that Markyse is so relatable to me. She's like someone I would actually hang out with so it makes it easier to open up and talk. She's very professional and gave me great takeways from the very first session. I'm grateful.
Marlyse, is thoughtful, smart and kind. She is proactive and understanding and is everything I was looking for in a counsellor. I would 100% recommend her to anyone starting with BetterHelp.
I havent spent a lot of time in counseling but Ms. Bernadine has beem very helpful and understanding of what I am concerned about. She has helped me understand a little about myself and I look foward to workimg with her more.
Markyse has helped me overcome my nervousness about therapy, because she is amazingly respectful and makes me feel comfortable sharing and spilling out anything on my mind. I feel comfortable sharing my experiences with her and she has a positive approach to every conversation we have :)
She is a great listener, and has great communication skills. She really helps me get to the bottom of my problems. I end our sessions feeling refreshed and happy. She makes the experience very comfortable and it really feels like I’m talking to a close friend. I would definitely recommend her!
