Biography
Great to meet you! Dr. Williams is a licensed clinical psychologist with 38 years of experience counseling others with a variety of issues. She has advanced training in forensic psychology, hypnotherapy, & equine-assisted psychotherapy, & largely utilizes transpersonal (including ecotherapy), experiential (e.g., equine-assisted psychotherapy, sand tray, play therapy), & CBT methods to address a variety of issues, across the lifespan (we treat ages 2-102). Dr. Williams treats individuals, couples, families, & groups with a focus on trauma, grief, & loss, dissociative disorders including DID, & couples’ issues. Through her involvement as cofounder and clinical program director of FL nonprofit, Equusolutions, Inc., Dr. Williams offers customized healing workshops & retreats for survivors, and loved ones, caregivers, partners, & therapists of trauma survivors to mitigate secondary traumatization, vicarious trauma, burnout, and/or compassion fatigue. Utilizing a holistic & transpersonal approach, & incorporating nature for clients so inclined, led Dr. Williams to certification in equine-assisted interventions, utilizing rescue horses to treat trauma survivors, creating sustainability for not only primary trauma survivors, (equines, & humans!), but their caregivers (friends, family, partners, therapists), & the nonprofit barns housing the equines as well.
