About Dwanne
Dwanne Clayton is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with five years of clinical therapy experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, self-esteem struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and a range of related issues such as intimacy, sleep problems, parenting stress, and ADHD. Sessions are conducted in English and she does not take international clients.
Dwanne frames therapy as a practical collaboration. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them use their strengths to manage current challenges. In sessions she focuses on solution-oriented strategies aimed at clearer thinking, steadier emotions, and better daily functioning.
Her approach draws from several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify thought patterns that feed anxiety or low mood and then try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values to guide action. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and respect for the client’s perspective.
Dwanne also integrates mindfulness practices to help with stress regulation and Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas when working on relationship or intimacy concerns. She describes therapy as a place to learn skills for handling life’s changes and to practice new ways of relating to yourself and others.

How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, and then choose actions that match what matters most to them. It can be useful for anxiety, avoidance, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. It often includes practical exercises and homework between sessions. Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and reflecting the person's experience to build clarity and self-direction, which can help with confidence and relationship issues.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Dwanne will discuss which methods fit a person’s goals, preferences, and current concerns, and then adapt the plan collaboratively as progress unfolds.
Specific session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins, and make it simpler to schedule around work or caregiving. Many therapeutic exercises and mindfulness practices translate well to remote meetings, and the therapist will explain practical steps for how sessions will run once you schedule.
