About Clarrissa

Clarrissa Hazel is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with 18 years of clinical experience. She supports people facing addictions, relationship strain, anger, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. She also helps with parenting concerns, workplace issues, and challenges common in young adulthood.

Clarrissa takes a strengths-based view and trusts that people know important parts of their own story. She works collaboratively to build on those strengths and to set practical, achievable goals. Sessions focus on clear steps and real-life changes rather than long, theoretical explanations.

Her approach is direct and goal-oriented. She uses Solution-Focused Therapy to help clients identify what is already working and to plan small, manageable changes. Conversations often center on immediate problems, personal resources, and what change would look like in daily life.

People seek her out for help with substance use and drug or alcohol addiction concerns, loneliness or isolation, self-love and confidence, and motivation to make change. She also supports those navigating bipolar disorder-related challenges and other mood concerns.

Clarrissa aims to make the first steps feel less overwhelming. She listens, helps clarify options, and works with each person to build practical skills they can use between sessions. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to the therapist's availability.

Solution-Focused Work and Online Support

Solution-Focused Therapy centers on what is already working and on practical next steps. It helps people identify small changes that lead to clearer routines, better coping, and reduced stress. This approach can be useful for concerns like anxiety, low motivation, relationship stress, and addiction-related goals.

The therapist emphasizes building on strengths and setting concrete goals. Finding the right approach is part of the process, and the therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That teamwork helps shape whether sessions focus on short-term problem solving or longer-term skill building.

Licensed professionals can adapt Solution-Focused techniques to work well in remote sessions, keeping conversations practical and action-oriented.
