About William
William Flores is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 21 years of experience. He helps people address anger, addictions, depression, stress, anxiety, and relationship and family concerns. He also works with issues like parenting strain, grief, intimacy-related concerns, sleep problems, and self-esteem.
He uses practical conversation to identify what is getting in the way and what a person wants to change. Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than long lectures. He draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to guide those steps.
William pays attention to how patterns of thinking and behavior keep problems going. He helps people notice triggers, try new responses, and build small routines that reduce flare-ups of anger or stress. For someone dealing with addiction or chronic pain, he looks at how those problems interact with mood, sleep, and daily responsibilities.
Conversation is direct and practical. He emphasizes honest feedback and specific tools for handling conflict, resentment, or workplace frustration. Sessions also address coping with life changes and rebuilding motivation after setbacks.
His work includes helping people with attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, and men's issues. He accepts international clients and runs sessions with attention to each person’s goals. To begin, the usual step is a short questionnaire and then scheduling a first session.
How sessions work
How his approaches shape online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, then pick actions that match their values. It can help with anger that feels overwhelming and with building consistent habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns such as rumination or avoidance. Motivational Interviewing focuses on strengthening a person’s own reasons for change, which is useful for addictions or low motivation. Choosing which approach to use is part of the work. William will discuss goals and preferences and together decide which methods to try. That decision is collaborative and may shift as treatment progresses. Confirm the specific session formats before booking since none are listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time so a person can use a lunch break or an evening slot. Therapists can adapt exercises, homework, and skill practices for remote work so progress continues between meetings.Areas of focus
