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.

Greetings, my name is Linda Losi. I am a graduate of Barry University in 1996. I am also a retired Registered Nurse. I have 30+ years of expertise in the following areas; Anxiety, Trauma/Abuse, Dual Diagnoses, ADHD, ASD, Depression, Personality Disorders, Women and LGBTQ+ issues. I work collaboratively with my clients using various modalities of treatment such as, "Solution Focused", Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Psychodynamic, Heart Centered Hypnotherapy, Mindfulness, etc... In the past the thought of going to therapy was a scary prospect. The thought of a painful journey turned people away. Therapy doesn't have to be a tough journey. There's laughter, tears and yes, even pleasant memories to be had. Welcome to my judgment free zone. Be ready to work, change ONLY comes with action. So, come and gain insight and judgment that you ALREADY possess in an open and transparent environment.

Hi Y’all! First and foremost, give yourself a pat on the back for reaching out for help! I’m Ashley Longabaugh-Cantos, a licensed mental health counselor in Florida with six years of experience, and I’m so glad you’re here. I work with people of all ages—kiddos, teens, adults, and families—and I’m passionate about mental wellness. Whether you're struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, loss, depression, or navigating life changes, I’m here to help. I also specialize in working with those dealing with trauma, eating disorders, intimate partner violence, non-suicidal self-injury, grief, and woman's issues (fertility related concerns). A little about me—I have extensive experience working with clients from tough situations who struggle to find their place and purpose in the world. As a military spouse, I understand the complexities of big life changes, the resilience it takes to push forward, and what it means to feel lost while finding your way. Having lived overseas for two years, I deeply appreciate diverse experiences and the importance of creating a supportive, judgment-free space where you feel respected and heard. I also believe in the healing power of humor and finding the light in everyday life—you’ll often find me using laughter to ease tough moments. I’m a huge animal lover, and you might occasionally meet one of my furry co-therapists—Hugo, Clive, or Maxine—who love to pop in and say hello! I’m looking forward to working with you and supporting you in whatever way I can. I'm ready when you're ready! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need anything at all. You Got This!
