About Berline
Berline Lapomarede is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and other life challenges. She works in English and Spanish and brings ten years of clinical experience to conversations about parenting, grief, career change, and relationship strain. Her approach is warm and interactive.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps clients can try between meetings. Berline listens first, then offers tools drawn from evidence-based methods like cognitive behavioral and mindfulness approaches.
Background and approach
She has worked in residential, outpatient, and detention settings, gaining experience with trauma, domestic violence, and self-harm concerns. That background informs a calm, steady style aimed at helping people feel safer and more able to cope with strong emotions. Berline uses Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients build motivation and identify small, doable changes.
She explains skills in plain language and practices them together with each person, so new strategies fit daily life. People who come to her often want to reduce overwhelming thoughts, improve communication, or find purpose after a major change. The first sessions typically set priorities, clarify what’s most pressing, and create a simple plan to move forward.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and priorities, with the therapist following the client's lead and offering empathy and understanding to help clarify what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce symptoms like anxiety and low mood.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, strengths, and preferences, and then together they will try strategies that fit the client’s life. Plans are adjusted over time based on what is working and what needs change.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which give flexibility for different needs. Video lets people work face to face, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging work for quick check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and make it easier to keep sessions consistent.
