Miriam Charles-Flores

Danielson, Connecticut - Clinical Social Worker
Online

I am a License Clinical Social Worker with 40 years experience and have worked in out-patient and in-patient hospitals, schools and in Private Practice. My clinical experiences afforded me the opportunity to gain expertise with issues relating to Depression, Anxiety Disorders, Complex Trauma, Mood Disorders, Intimacy-Relationship Issues, and Family Conflicts. I obtained an MSW degree from Smith College which included extensive training in the area of Psycho-Dynamic Theory, and other Clinical Orientations. Presently I offer a holistic approach integrating also, Mindful Thinking, Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, and Personalized, Evidence-Based Effective Therapy. It has been my experience that having expertise and a broader knowledge base of diverse theoretical approaches can facilitate an in-debt exploration and an understanding to formulate a thorough solid based clinical assessment and treatment plan. The assessment provides a means in which to identify a therapeutic goal and to gain an understanding of the clients individual needs. It also can help in the design of an optimal individualized treatment plan to help the client reach their individual personal goals. I am a compassionate empathetic person, who listens cautiously and attentively to encourage client interaction and participation in the therapeutic process. This approach helps and enables the client to have the opportunity to identify their own understanding of their presenting problem as well as to identify their individual treatment goals. I am a strong believer that every individual possesses the inner capacity to identify their conflicts, establish a therapeutic relationship and ultimately gain individual awareness to gain conflict resolution. My ultimate aim is to assist clients in reducing the repetitive aspect of Depression and Anxiety by providing a specific individualized psycho-educational treatment plan, and to make an impact therapeutically by providing thoughtful support, guidance, and problem solving skills.

I am a marital and family therapist licensed in Connecticut with nearly thirty years of experience working in the mental health field at all levels of care including a variety of out patient settings through in patient psychiatric hospitalization. My professional interests include: depression, anxiety, relationship issues in just about any context from personal to professional, effective parenting within both bio and blended families, career challenges, emotional abuse, women's issues, codependency, medical/addiction issues and their profound impact on family members, grief and loss, life changes, and more.

I earned my B.S. in Education at the University of Connecticut in 1973, an M.S. in Education from Central CT in 1976, then an M.S. in Counseling with a focus on Marital and Family Therapy in 1992, also at Central CT. I was a public school teacher for nearly two decades before making a career change. I believe that adequate self care and social supports, effective communication and healthy boundary setting, along with realistic expectations are all essential to life satisfaction. My clinical approach is founded in cognitive behavioral therapy and solution focused. I strive to be positive, warm and strength based. I am privileged to work with clients exploring their challenges in a caring setting and find it rewarding when clients are willing/able to make positive shifts in attitudes and behaviors, restoring balance to their lives. It takes courage to commit to change. When you're ready to take your first step, I'm here to encourage and support you. I remain forever grateful to my clients. I've learned something from each and everyone along the way. Always happy to hear from you!
