Dr. S has helped me work through a difficult situation. She offers insight on behavior modifications that can help me cope with my anxiety. I was hopeless and a couple weeks later I feel like I am coping. Great way to get help remotely.

Hello there, my name is Dr. Lauren Serdencuk and I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Florida. I obtained a Bachelors degree in Psychology from CUNY Queens College, a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Mercy College, and a PhD from Nova Southeastern University. I am also a Certified Addiction Professional (CAP) in the state of Florida. I specialize with populations including Substance Abuse, Chronic Illness, Depression, and Anxiety. I come from a Solution-Focused approach, meaning we explore solutions for the future instead of focusing on the past. I think I can help you if you are desiring change, are willing to take on challenges, and exploring new possibilities.

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.
