I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a deep commitment to helping individuals and families thrive. I have extensive experience supporting diverse communities across various mental health settings and take pride in creating safe, compassionate spaces for healing and growth. Known for being a collaborative team member with strong organizational skills, I bring a background in individual and group counseling, community outreach, case management, advocacy, and crisis intervention.

My approach to therapy is holistic, client-centered, and strengths-based, recognizing the connection between mind, body, and spirit in the healing process. I integrate evidence-based practices such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies, while also encouraging self-care, balance, and personal growth beyond the therapy space. I value cultural responsiveness and view each person through a lens of resilience and possibility.

I’m passionate about empowering others to reach their fullest potential through empathy, connection, and effective, evidence-based support.

As a licensed counselor in the Sunshine State of Florida, with almost 12 years of experience, I have worked with a variety of populations & settings. Whether it is teens/young adults (ages 15 & +) through 80 years & older, what I can tell you I have learned so far is; we all go through some "unlucky" things sometimes. What counts & is most important is how we learn to cope & manage these situations life throws our way. Together we can digest & learn ways to heal when life gets hard!

I have over 10 years of experience working successfully with pre-teens, teens, and adults with various presenting concerns typically involving anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationship issues, family conflict, stressful life events, and life transitions. Within my years of experience, I have served in roles as both therapist and clinical supervisor, also providing education and guidance to provisionally licensed therapists around facilitating effective therapy to clients.

Hi, I’m Malini, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). I work with adults, couples, and families (no minors), with a clinical focus on OCD, anxiety disorders, specific phobias, and exposure-based treatment, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).

I’m the child of immigrants, with parents from Trinidad, and I identify as Indo-Caribbean. This background deeply informs my work, particularly with South Asian, Indian-Caribbean, and immigrant clients navigating marital pressure, family expectations, gender roles, and cultural identity stress. I understand firsthand how cultural values can shape responsibility, independence, and relationship dynamics, often in ways that are both supportive and challenging.

My approach is direct, warm, and collaborative. I value clarity, practical tools, and honest conversations, and I also believe that therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy all the time. I bring humor and levity into the therapy space when appropriate, helping clients feel more at ease while doing meaningful work.
