Therapists in Cape Coral, FL
Cape Coral, FL, sits on a peninsula in southwestern Florida. It offers direct access to the Caloosahatchee River, various kayak routes, beaches, piers, and more than 400 miles of canals. Thanks to its tropical climate and abundant water, you can see things in Cape Coral that you can’t see in many other areas of the country, like mangroves and manatees. If you’re having difficulty enjoying the water and feel like you might get swept away, talking to a therapist in Cape Coral, FL, can help.
Finding the right therapist can be challenging. In-person counseling sessions are likely available from many therapy practices in and around Cape Coral, but finding one with an available appointment that fits your schedule can be challenging. Online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp lets you attend therapy sessions from the comfort of your home, so you don’t have to spend your valuable time driving to Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, or Lehigh Acres to find an appointment.
All BetterHelp therapists are appropriately trained in counseling psychology and skilled at using an eclectic approach to help you manage the current challenges in your life. Whether you need help with issues that affect women, difficult life experiences, family conflict, or mental health conditions, a therapist can develop a plan to help. Contact a Cape Coral-based therapist to make a positive change in your life.

Hello, and thank you for your interest in working with me as your therapist. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), licensed in both Florida and Texas, with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. I hold a Master’s degree in Social Work from Barry University in Miami Shores, Florida, and have had the privilege of working in a wide range of settings—including homeless shelters, crisis stabilization units, and outpatient treatment centers. These diverse experiences have shaped a compassionate, person-centered approach to therapy. My clinical practice integrates evidence-based modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing (MI). I specialize in working with men who may find it difficult to express intimacy and affection, and those experiencing challenges related to anger, irritability, performance anxiety, or emotional disconnection. I offer a supportive space where clients can freely explore their thoughts, emotions, and personal goals without judgment. Many of the individuals I work with are seeking greater balance, fulfillment, and clarity in their personal and professional lives. Therapy can offer a safe and confidential environment to explore these challenges and begin the process of healing and growth. Together, we’ll work on building healthier coping strategies and uncovering deeper insight into the issues you may be facing. I look forward to the opportunity to connect with you and begin this meaningful work togeth
