Assisting Individuals in Crisis and Group Crisis Intervention (CISM)

Thanks for stopping by my Counseling page.  

My name is Hayne Steen and I am looking forward to working with you. As the founder and owner of the Elbow Tree Co-Op, I'd like to thank you for the opportunity to explore how we might be most helpful to you in this season of life. 

I am a trained Marriage and Family Therapist as well as a board approved Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. Over the last five years, I have supervised 15 pre-licensed interns as a an Approved Supervisor. I love working with individuals, couples, and families. In addition to my work with Elbow Tree, I also serve on a Mobile Response Team and work in close partnership with first responders.  

Over the last 12 years, if you looked at my schedule on any given day, you'd probably see a few married couples, some exhausted and burnt-out parents, a college student, a 4th-12th grader, someone having an affair, someone who has been crushed by a significant loss, or someone who has experienced trauma. I often find that a person's willingness to come in and simply talk about things creates at least 50% of the change they are looking for.

I decided years ago to work with a very broad range of situations, because I love the variety. Whatever it is that brings you in, my two goals are to help you clearly understand why it is happening and what to do about it.
​
I'm a Flagler College alumnus ('95) and recently moved back to Saint Augustine with my wife and our three children. I started my own practice because I wanted to paint the walls my own color, bring my dog to the office and wear flip flops!
​
Read on below and you'll find all sorts of helpful information about how to get started with me. I've included a sampling of some of the common situations I work with, but it is not exhaustive.  

If you are searching for something different than what you see here, get in touch. It's likely that I can help you too.
