Hello and welcome to Scott Liff, LCSW’s Private Practice website. I specialize in working with children, teenagers and families and also provide psychotherapy to adults. If you arrived here out of curiosity or if you are here due to being on the search for psychotherapy treatment, this site will give you an outline of my services, my experience, and ways that I may be able to help you, your child/teen, or family. NOTE: I AM OFFERING TELEHEALTH/CAM SERVICES THAT ARE HIPPA COMPLIANT AND CURRENTLY COVERED BY MOST INSURANCES. FEEL FREE TO ASK ABOUT THESE SERVICES WHEN YOU REACH OUT. I AM ALSO A REGISTERED FLORIDA TELEHEALTH PROVIDER AND CAN VIRTUALLY WORK WITH FLORIDA RESIDENTS.
The search for a therapist may be one of the most difficult choices that a person can make in their life. Not only can it be difficult to find the right “fit”, it can be also very scary to trust someone with personal struggles and challenges that you, your child or family are going through. First you deserve credit for taking the risk to seek out therapy and taking steps toward whatever your goals for change and personal growth are.
In my over 20 years experience working with children, teens, adults, and families as a psychotherapist, I have worked from the philosophy that no matter what struggles, challenges, or hardships that you, your child, or family are facing, there are always ways toward healing, growth and finding ways to build on your strengths and capabilities. I have watched the healing and change process work firsthand and can say that each and every child, teen, adult, and family are unique and have inherent strengths within that can be uncovered to overcome the pain that may feel too difficult to face.
As a therapist my style is one of compassion, support, teamwork, collaboration, and using humor when appropriate. My goal is to help create a comfortable and safe space for you to work through whatever challenges you are facing from your past or present. I draw on years of experience in many culturally diverse environments including schools, outpatient mental health clinics, residential treatment facilities, therapeutic communities and homeless shelters. Many of my clients have told me that they feel supported, encouraged to make change, have gained insight about themselves, and feel an environment for progress has been created in their lives.
Feel free to browse through the pages of the website for more specific information on the populations I treat, treatment approaches I use, office hours, payment, and how to contact me for a consultation.
