About me

ABOUT ME

My name is Steve Brenner, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, a Nationally Certified Counselor and Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor. I have over a decade of experience in the field of mental health and currently operate a private counseling practice in Boca Raton Florida. I primarily work with adults who are struggling with relational trauma leading to depression, anxiety, substance abuse, career difficulties, relationship, and marriage problems. I am trained in the Post Induction Trauma Model of relational trauma work developed by Pia Mellody at The Meadows in Arizona.

My approach is to develop a strong trusting relationship that leads to honesty and the willingness to look at the core issues that are leading to the behaviors (symptoms) that my clients are experiencing today. My approach is low key, yet challenging in a compassionate and loving way. Together, we will develop strategies that produce long term success and measurable results, leading to a life transformed.

I completed my master's degree in counseling at Lynnt University, and have worked in specialized private mental health treatment programs for nearly 10 years. I also have a bachelor's degree in psychology earned in 1983 at George Washington University. I spent 20 plus years working in technology consulting with some of the larger consulting firms over the years. This allows me to relate well with successful business people at varied levels, helping to foster greater performance and leading to greater professional achievement.

If you are searching for direction, contentment, or need help getting past the obstacles that keep you stuck in your personal or professional life, I would welcome the opportunity to assist you.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Steven Brenner. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
