Christopher Douglas

Greetings and Welcome! I am a licensed clinical social worker in South Florida. I have had the privilege to work with clients of all ages in a variety of settings, including hospitals, inpatient and outpatient treatment centers, and community outreach facilities. I have spent a significant amount of my career helping clients address the underlying concerns (self esteem, relationships, abuse/trauma) behind substance abuse issues. I have worked in a variety of capacities with the LGBT community, including providing services to people living with HIV/AIDS. For those with concerns related to immediate family, I spent several years providing in-home services to youth and families, including serving as a clinician for a mobile crisis unit. The modalities for treatment I have most commonly used with clients include Solution Focus Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. In addition to my training in mental health, I also have degrees in music and music education. Prior to my career in mental health I worked as a music educator and performer. South Florida has been my home for over ten years, where I am able to combine providing therapy to clients with continuing to pursue musical interests through education and performing, as well as enjoying the diverse artistic and cultural offerings of this region. I consider it a great privilege to assist clients as they seek to make changes in their lives, and I look forward to the opportunity to work with each individual at their own pace to address their unique concerns.
