Meet Lawrence

Psychiatric Social Worker, LCSW, LICSW, USAF Veteran

With several decades of healthcare experience in mental health, addiction treatment, and integrative wellness, my clinical practice has been rooted in functional health, emphasizing the exploration of underlying causes and complex systemic factors that contribute to central nervous system (CNS) dysfunction. We will help you discover the power of your mind and body to overcome distress and emotional challenges. 

 

At Thrive Health Services, we take a holistic, whole-body approach to mental health care, grounded in the principles of Functional-Integrative Healthcare. Functional mental health care considers the intricate web of biological, psychological, and social factors, recognizing the interplay between internal (mind, body, and soul) and external (physical and social environment) influences on mental health. We believe that true wellness begins with understanding the unique story of your health. That’s why we’ve created a comprehensive approach to mental wellness that transforms how you think, feel, and live. Our mission is to develop healing treatment plans that focus on brain, mind, emotional, CNS, sleep, nutrition, exercise, and full body wellness to effectively address emotional challenges, mental health concerns, impulse control, and addiction. With expert guidance, you’ll learn practical behavioral tools and strategies to progressively develop greater distress tolerance, emotional intelligence, and interpersonal effectiveness. 

​

​As a Licensed Psychiatric Clinical Social Worker, I am honored to support clients across Florida, Virginia, Massachusetts, and Wyoming.​​​​​​
