About Berline
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of experience, Berline Lapomarede helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, ADHD, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting, anger, and self-esteem struggles. She speaks English and Spanish and draws on several practical therapy methods to support clients.
Berline offers short, direct sessions that focus on what people want to change. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and help clients set their own goals. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thinking and build different habits. Mindfulness techniques are used to reduce reactivity and increase present-moment awareness.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University and clinical work across residential, outpatient, and detention settings. That variety informs her approach to problems such as parenting strain, caregiver stress, communication problems, and impulse control. She avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and sensitivity.
Sessions are interactive and problem-focused. Berline often blends motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies to help people set achievable steps and stay motivated. She also brings trauma-informed practice when past harm is part of the picture.
People who choose her usually want practical tools they can use between sessions. The first meetings focus on clarifying goals and trying a few strategies to see what helps. Further work refines those strategies and builds skills for everyday life.

Approaches used and what online sessions involve
Berline commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening carefully and helping people set their own goals. This approach is useful for people who want a collaborative, respectful space to talk through concerns and decide what matters most to them.She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify thinking and behavior patterns that maintain problems and to practice alternative responses. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, impulsivity, and many day-to-day struggles by teaching specific skills and tasks to try between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Berline will help clients choose and adapt methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences, and she treats this as a collaborative process rather than a fixed plan.
Confirm current session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific options. When offered, remote sessions can help fit therapy into a busy week by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or making it easier to meet during a lunch break or after work. Ask about language options, scheduling, and how sessions are structured when you complete the matching questionnaire.
