Dr. Arthur Betancourt
Hello, my name is Dr. Arthur Betancourt and I am a clinical psychologist in Miami, Florida. For the past twenty-five years I was on the faculty at the University Of Miami, Miller School Of Medicine. At UM I was able to work with a wide variety of different patient populations. Many of these patients presented with complaints of anxiety and depression secondary to different types of stressors in their lives. My clinical work with these patients was focused on helping them to cope more effectively with the stressors in their lives. This was done by firstly, helping these individuals to examine their thoughts and behaviors and how these contributed to their emotional and behavioral difficulties. Then, secondly, helping them to explore and learn/adopt new and more effective thoughts and behaviors. This process can help individuals to function /cope better. Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to working with you.

Margaret Thomas- Lapsley
I believe everyone is entitled to a happy and healthy life. At times, there are things that stand in the way of achieving that goal. Therapy is an essential tool in addressing any number of topics that can cause distress such as depression, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, and trauma. I believe that working together, we can identify problems, create solutions, and map out a more meaningful existence. I work with clients to manage symptoms and address core issues. I have work in the fields of substance abuse, trauma, and anxiety/depression. A client can expect a present, warm, caring, and educated therapist in our sessions. By coming to the table with your unique life experiences and struggles and with my professional experience and training, we can create the life that you envision.

Nicolas Gross
I believe that engaging the process of therapy is a courageous act-a personal commitment to living a more fulfilling and happier life. A lot of my work has been with individuals who find themselves at a crossroads in life, struggling to fully engage with their life in a meaningful way. Whether due to the weight of past experiences or self-limiting beliefs, I work collaboratively with individuals to better understand and work with these undermining forces. As a therapist, part of my work is to hold space for my clients so that they can undertake the process of charting a new course, exploring past and present barriers that interfere with their ability to achieve success in work, relationships, and everyday life. I believe that we possess strengths that spring forward from our innate resilience, key allies that are uncovered and activated during therapy. Through a combination of focused talk therapy, personalized goals, and other creative tools, the goal is to outline a strategy for transforming negative emotions, relationship conflicts, fears, and self-defeating habitual patterns as a pathway to freedom and healing. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with 20 years of professional clinical experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, LGBTQIA+ support, family conflicts, coping with grief and loss, depression, and adjustment to life changes.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I am a poly friendly therapist. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
