Althea Sawyers, LMFT
About me
As a Florida Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience, I currently work online in Private Practice using evidence-based models of therapy that get results. My experience includes working with clients that present a wide variety of issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, trauma-related issues, goal-setting hurdles, and other areas of needing self-empowerment.
My mission is to empower you to overcome the obstacles of anxiety and depression, to become unstuck in accomplishing your goals, to begin feeling fulfilled, to step out of the shadows and fears caused by past traumatic events, to take back the reins of control in your life, and to start living a life of fulfillment, peace, balance, and be the overcomer! I would be honored to accompany you on your journey of rediscovering and re-establishing your strengths, and be equipped with the tools you need to become better problem solvers.
I realize that it’s not easy to decide on which therapist may be best for you, but I’m hoping you will take a leap of faith and give us a chance to work together. I’m looking forward to meeting you soon and to helping you accomplish your goals!

Amazing

I've only had the privilege of having Ms. Sawyers as my counselor for 2 months but it was a very nice experience. In those two months, she did shed some light on things that was a bit difficult for me to understand in addition to listening me and allowing me to vent when necessary. I found the journaling particularly cathartic and her responses - even better. Outside of serious talk, she is always down to have a laugh or two, she has a great sense of humor. I recommend her 10/10.
