About Us

FLORENTINE SCHREIBER

LICENSED MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELOR (LMHC)

Becoming a mother transformed my understanding of myself and the world around me. Like many, I longed to be fully present with my family and career, yet I struggled with distractions and the desire for structured routines. I found myself overwhelmed, lacking the joy and harmony I craved for myself and my family. At the same time, perfectionism kept me focused on an endless list of tasks, making it easy to neglect my own well-being.
My courage and dedication to overcome traumatic experiences, self-criticism and disconnect, has taught me to connect with myself and encouraged a shift to self-love and acceptance. This journey has made me a present and patient parent, as well as an effective therapist. Through it all, I've come to understand the profound importance of self-compassion, humor and joy, and the power of resilience.
