Pamela Goffman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, TEP
Psychotherapy opens our perceptions to the meanings behind our beliefs and patterns of behavior, that in turn comprise the roles we take in our lives. My job is to help you integrate these perceptions and access these meanings, so you can expand your life by creating new roles.

Autism
Maria Jose Rendon
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I work with autistic adults, including many who were diagnosed later in life after years of masking traits well enough to go unnoticed, often at real cost to their energy and sense of self. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming: autism is a difference to understand and work with, not a deficit to correct. I'm a neurotypical clinician, which I mention deliberately, since I bring structured clinical training rather than shared lived experience, an approach some clients specifically prefer. Many of my autistic clients are also professionals or scientists managing workplace demands, or first-generation Latinx adults navigating autism alongside cultural identity. Sessions are goal-oriented so you always know what we're working on together.

14 Years Experience

West Palm Beach is the county seat and largest city of Palm Beach County, sitting just across the Intracoastal Waterway from the ultra-wealthy enclave of Palm Beach island, and this juxtaposition of extreme wealth and the more working-class and ethnically diverse West Palm Beach community creates a distinctive mental health context around economic inequality, aspiration, and the psychological impact of proximity to extreme affluence. The city has a large Black and Latino community with significant Haitian and Caribbean heritage, and culturally competent Spanish- and Haitian Creole-speaking therapists are in demand. Palm Beach County's behavioral health system and a private therapy sector—including a substantial addiction treatment industry that draws clients from across the country—serve different segments of the population. Common therapy concerns include economic stress and inequality, Black and Caribbean-American identity, addiction and recovery, anxiety, and the complex emotional experience of living adjacent to one of the wealthiest communities in the world.
