Megan Williams
Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW)
Hello! My name is Megan, and I am honored that you are considering me to walk alongside you on your journey towards healing.
As a lifelong resident of Merritt Island, I am so excited to serve the needs of our community and the surrounding areas. I specialize in crisis management, perinatal mental health, working with teens, and general substance abuse and mental health concerns including anxiety and depression.
Throughout my experience in various settings (including inpatient, outpatient, and residential treatment), I have learned that approaching our work together with a trauma informed lens is paramount. I utilize a variety of techniques including CBT, psychoeducation, strengths based approaches, client focused care, and components of ACT. I believe every person deserves to be uplifted in a warm, safe, non-judgemental space. Your experiences, feelings, and needs will always be valued in our shared time together.
Taking the first step is often the hardest one. If recovery doesn’t seem possible, please know that with help, you can be well. Together, I am hopeful that we can shift your life towards a happier, healthier space.
Gabriele Mamone
Registered Mental Health Intern
Hi, my name is Gabriele Mamone. I am a registered mental health counseling intern in the state of Florida. I graduated with my masters in education and specialist degree in mental health counseling in December of 2017. I am currently enrolled in a Doctoral program for clinical psychology.
I have clinical experience working with children and adults that have been diagnosed with PTSD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder, dementia, chronic pain, Parkinsons
Disease, and Substance Use Disorder. I have worked in outpatient and inpatient settings. I
primarily use a cognitive behavioral approach from a strengths-based perspective, but I adapt the therapy to the client’s needs. It is my belief that people can grow when they are listened to nonjudgmentally and offered strategies to see the world from different perspectives.
I look forward to getting to know you and working together so that we can meet your
treatment goals.
