Guileine Kraft, MD, LCSW-C, LCSW

Guileine Kraft is a licensed clinician with 14 years of experience who combines clinical training and cultural insight to support clients through life transitions and mental health concerns. She holds MD, LCSW-C, and LCSW credentials and also has a PhD in Social Work; the LCSW-C and LCSW indicate clinical social work licensure while MD denotes a medical degree. Based in Florida, she has previously practiced in Maryland and has worked with a wide age range of clients, including military service members and their families in both deployed and garrison environments.

Her therapeutic style is eclectic and grounded in cultural self-determination alongside cognitive behavioral techniques, allowing treatment to be tailored to each person’s needs. Her clinical focus includes depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, career concerns, addictions, family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, parenting challenges, anger, and general daily life stressors. She uses elements of a client’s culture - including music and the arts, with a particular interest in hip-hop - to enrich the therapeutic process and foster connection.

Kraft has experience training students and professionals in both classroom and online formats and brings a strong comfort with technology into her practice to support healing and practical living. She welcomes opportunities to help clients create space for independent thinking, personal growth, and healthier functioning, and she holds a high expectation for each client’s potential for success.
