Therapists in Florida

I am a licensed mental health counselor with 12 years of experience in the mental health field with expertise in areas such as addiction, anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem, prenatal and postpartum anxiety and depression, and work place issues. I have been described by my clients as caring, kind, calming, supportive, a good listener, and easy to talk to. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a proven approach to changing thinking patterns and behaviors in a limited amount of sessions. I specialize in working with people who feel overwhelmed by the changing world around them. I help my clients find new grounding, hope, and healing. Together we will develop new ways to react to life's challenges. We will develop a practical plan to learn new tools and practice new behaviors to help you get unstuck and live the life you've always wanted. I have always been passionate about seeing people overcome challenges and embrace their full true selves. I am extremely honored to be in this line of work and to share in others life journeys. Let’s create the space you deserve to figure out what’s next.

What would it feel like to be heard, to know that you are valued and cared about and to believe that there is real hope for your future? Are you struggling, anxious, grieving, overwhelmed? You are not alone. Life is really hard right now. You deserve self care and support. Difficult and painful experiences can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. I offer you a safe place to talk about and explore all those concerns. Together we will identify specific issues and needs to establish achievable goals. Working collaboratively throughout the counseling and coaching process, we will continuously evaluate your progress as you become stronger and more confident in all of your life decisions. From me you can expect warmth, empathy, humor and the use of practical tools that you can start applying right away. I will bring to every session an earnest desire to facilitate your growth and healing and will walk alongside you so that you never feel alone. I work with individual clients and couples from all walks of life. I have more than 18 years of counseling experience specializing in depression, anxiety, trauma recovery, grief and loss and lifestyle adjustments. Most recently I have been serving military families and first responders. I applaud you for taking this first step toward wellness. Please feel free to contact me today!

I am a licensed professional mental health counselor with experience in both a private and community mental health setting. I am also a certified yoga instructor, using a trauma informed approach to teaching yoga. I believe treatment should involve the whole person (physical, mental, and spiritual). Personal and professional history includes great exposure to a diverse set of life experiences and clientele. My focus is a client centered approach to therapy to help each individual live their best life and I believe, at our core, we all have the needed answers to our life's problems. My job is not to change or fix you; my job as a therapist is to bring those answers to the surface.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience working with HIV/AIDS, substance use, and behavioral health. I have my Masters from New York University and I am currently a candidate for my PhD in Organizational Psychology. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, LGBTQA+, career challenges, and multiple chronic medical diagnoses. I also helped many people who have experienced varying forms of trauma in their childhood and how this childhood trauma may influence our adulthood. My counseling style is warm, interactive, and straightforward. I believe in treating all with respect, dignity, sensitivity, and compassion. I work with an individual's thoughts and how those thoughts can influence behaviors. I have worked with supporting people through their own ambivalence using cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing (getting out of your own way). I am not into labels. I am adaptive and will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. It takes courage to seek support and redesign your own life. I applaud you for taking this step towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you so that you can redesign a world that is a better fit for you. I look forward to working with you!
