My Approach to Helping
Hello. My name is Florence Simcoe. I have been a clinical social worker for almost 45 years (and still love it.) I am an LCSW, which is the highest degree of licensure in the state of Arizona- (LCSW 1016). As a clinician, I focus on the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of mental illness, emotional, and other behavioral disturbances. I individualize my theoretical approach to your needs and consider our work to be one of active partnership and collaboration. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families.
I will use whatever approach is most useful and effective. Some of the models I use are: Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) � Attachment-based � Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) � Cognitive Processing (CPT) � Culturally Sensitive � Family Systems � Interpersonal � Intervention � Multicultural � Person-Centered � Positive Psychology � Rational Emotive Behavior (REBT) � Solution Focused Brief (SFBT) � Strength-Based � Trauma Focused � Client-Centered Therapy � Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) � Grief Therapy � Solution Focused � Behavioral Activation � Child/Parent Psychotherapy.
