About Arielle
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in the state of Florida, the Commonwealth of Virginia, and the District of Columbia with eight years of post-graduate experience. I have worked in both outpatient medical clinic care, acute hospital care, pediatric outpatient offices, 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 pilates classes, and practicing mindfulness.

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. <br /> I got lots of helpful advice from her. <br /> But the most important thing was that she was always there for me to listen and just talk or chat. <br /> Wonderfull person!”
