Therapists in Florida

If you are looking for a therapist who cares and makes the effort, who listens without judgment. If you wish to be seen and heard and valued, I am unique in making others feel comfortable, safe and willing, and ready to work through difficult areas of the self. From start to finish, I am on your side. I believe in the therapeutic relationship. I will meet you as an equal, with genuine and effective listening and feedback. We will set goals and assess and revise them along the way. I believe in the therapeutic process and want to help you become your best self. I will be using my 24 years of experience to work for you. I use evidence-based interventions to create a safe therapeutic environment that is conducive to growth and healing. An eclectic blend of Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered, and Positive Therapy are my treatments of choice. I will be providing weekly 'therapy boosts', that will be tailored information and opportunities to reflect and work on issues between sessions. I am an active messager, so if this appeals to you, we will be a great match. I have found Betterhrelp's platform to be very effective, as combining 24/7 messaging with live sessions is an amazing formula for success. If you've never been to a therapist, I can empathize with the uneasiness. It is scary to entertain our struggles and even scarier to think of telling someone. I assure you I am here to go at your pace, to make you as comfortable as possible, and to help you get to that version of yourself that you are desiring.

Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to learn more about me! My name is Rebecca, and I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in the state of Maine, as well as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the states of New York and Florida. I currently reside in upstate NY with my wife and our children (human and furry). With more than 10 years of experience across various settings, I offer supportive therapy for situations including: LGBTQ+, depression, anxiety, trauma histories, life transitions, and varying mental health disorders. “Anxiety can feel as huge as the big, blue sea, but remember that the sea is made up of smaller waves”. Sometimes life doesn’t make sense, we feel as though we're lost at sea, and our own navigational devices aren’t working. I provide a safe space to break life down into smaller more manageable waves, supporting individuals with redefining their navigational systems. I work with folks who are ready to unapologetically show up for themselves, find inner joy, and let that shit shine bright! I offer space that is warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental. I help you to heal past hurts and traumas; move through life from a place of empowerment, resiliency and courage; along with finding pride in your most genuine- authentic self. “You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore”. Therapy isn’t always easy, but it’s my goal to swim alongside you in order to provide support in navigating your way through the waves into calmer seas. We will work collaboratively to make change and meet your goals. Pronouns: She/They

Gail is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with over 20 years of clinical social work experience working with individuals in grief and loss, anxiety and depression, substance abuse and addiction, trauma, and life changing situations. We all have losses and disappointments that are difficult to think or talk about. These often return over and over, haunting us in our present lives. Instead of escaping those experiences, they reappear in many unexpected places, intruding on our best laid plans. When we can reflect on, and talk about the experiences and the shame and guilt so often associated with them, we are better able to understand and make sense of the patterns that plague us. There can be a new-found freedom in recognizing our attachment to the needs and desires of those we felt compelled to please and to save. And in becoming afraid of our own minds we can forge a more conscious and hopeful path. It is my belief that the more one's difficult emotional experiences can be expressed and talked through together, in a safe and engaging environment, the more helpful the therapeutic process can be. I assist clients who are facing a wide range of issues including grief and loss, depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, vocational discernment, and spiritual concerns, in taking steps to live more satisfying lives. My therapeutic approach addresses the uniqueness of the person and issues presented and on helping clients to expand their awareness of self and interactions with others. I also encourage exploration of experiences and emotions that provide valuable information about unsatisfying patterns and behaviors. My background in grief and loss work informs much of my work pertaining to life transitions, career changes, divorce, loss of a loved one, etc.
