Erica (Tzippi) Folinsky LCSW 70793 FL Telehealth Provider 67

 As a licensed clinician, with ten years of therapy experience, and many more on the other side of the couch, I approach this work with a unique passion and approach for each individual.  I consider it my honor and privilege to be let inside your world.  
I‘m a queer non-binary ethically non-monogamous kinky therapist from an Ashkenazi Jewish background.
I integrate somatic techniques, DBT informed therapy, as well as cognitive behavioral informed therapy.  What does all this mean?  I assist you in bringing together the connection between your body and your mind and you end up with a strong foundation of skills.
Have you been to therapy before for trauma and not found it effective?  Trauma/Unresolved Trauma/Attachment Trauma/PTSD/C-PTSD are some of my areas of expertise being a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I also work with what is known as Religious Trauma Syndrome, a relatively new term specific to trauma experienced by those who were part of high control groups.  My Jewish background helps inform my understanding of epigenetic trauma, with the understanding that my experience does not speak for others, even within the Jewish community.

Are you part of the kink/BDSM communities or seeking to explore this part of your identity?  Have you ever had a therapist judge you on bringing this up? Have ever just not felt comfortable bringing this up?  Well, as a queer non-binary ethically non-monogamous kink-identified therapist I understand that this part of your identity and not a pathology.

Does any of this mean I am going to try and move you towards ethical non monogamy or kink/BDSM? Nope! It means that this is a safe place to be you or explore those ideas.  And if that’s not you?  I welcome you as well.  Finding a space to let down your guard and just be you.

Other pathologized groups such as the ethically non-monogamous (or those curious) as well as sex workers are those whom are often part of my therapy community.  The LGBTQIA++ community is passionately served at Your Healing Begins Here.

I am able to provide services for the entire state of CA as well as the state of FL.
