B. Winnifred Cazeau, LICSW, LCSW-C

B. Winnifred Cazeau brings a long professional path to her work. She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Maryland in Child, Adolescent, and Family Health and holds licenses as an LCSW-C in Maryland and an LICSW in the District of Columbia. She runs Perfect Imperfection, LLC, and combines counseling, coaching, and training in her practice.

She centers the person in the room and treats people as the experts on their own lives. Sessions focus on identifying strengths and taking practical steps toward goals. Winnifred emphasizes small, manageable changes rather than seeking perfection.

Her background includes roles as a crisis counselor, director of a family preservation program, advocate, and clinical supervisor. That mix of direct care and leadership informs how she plans sessions and helps people set priorities.

She uses approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered work, and cognitive behavioral tools to address issues like depression, grief, and coping with life changes. Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused strategies also appear in her toolkit to support decision-making and short-term problem solving.

Winnifred works with concerns including relationship strain, parenting stress, adoption and foster care matters, caregiver burnout, ADHD, anger, and codependency. She offers services in English and Haitian Creole and frames her practice around practical steps people can take between sessions.

People who want a direct, strengths-based collaborator may find her style a good fit. She encourages clients to pick a clear direction and then takes steady steps toward it.

How therapy approaches inform online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that reflect their values. It can be useful for depression, anxiety, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical behavior changes; it often helps with mood, anger, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and the client’s own insights to guide progress and build confidence.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to match methods to goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying techniques, checking in about what helps, and adjusting the plan as needed.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since specific options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and offer a way to follow up on coping strategies between appointments. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when schedules demand a quick session. Licensed professionals and therapists can use these approaches to support goal setting, problem solving, and skill building even when meeting remotely.
