Carol Waldenburg
I have been a practicing therapist since 1994 and have specializations in: Pastoral Counseling; Women's issues including Aging, Body Image, Rape, Domestic Violence and Incest; Depression, Loss, Grief and Anxiety; Couples Counseling; Serious Mental Illness issues with individuals or families concerning Schizophrenia, Bipolar Disorder, and other illnesses that often require long-term treatment and medications. I have a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University, FL, and a Master's degree in Divinity from Duke University , NC. I believe that trust and compassion are key elements to successful therapy, as is regular engagement in therapy sessions, and commitment from both the therapist and the client. I often teach my clients techniques in breathing, using imagery, and journaling to use on their own when they have to confront issues that we work on in therapy. My style of counseling involves practices based in many psychological theories, and is tailored to the individual with whom I am working. Our sessions consist of conversations that may involve problem solving, teaching, guiding, looking more closely at issues that have been causing trouble for a long time, things that may never have been spoken of before, uncomfortable topics - whatever a client comes with is where we start, and together we will go from there. I am not here to judge, or come to conclusions about what you do or who you are. I am here to help you through whatever it is that causes you to want to talk to a professional therapist, and I will work with you as long as you need to heal and/or reach your goal(s).

Mark Rogers
I am Mark Rogers, a licensed mental health counselor-supervisor (LMHC-S) in Florida. I have practiced person-centered mental health counseling for over 15 years with twenty years of experience in career and daily functioning coaching. My clients have ranged from primary school, adolescents, adults, members of the LGBTQ community, and incarcerated individuals. I have been EMDRIA trained to provide EMDR therapy (eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing) and I use techniques of this within the framework of cognitive behavioral therapy. Trained attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder-certified clinical service provider (ADHD-CCSP), trauma (PTSD and CPTSD). I have the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis Levels 1 and 2 training for clinical hypnotherapy. My modalities include cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy (CBT and DBT), motivational interviewing (MI), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), EMDR with a goal of solution-focused therapy, and hypnotherapy to address trauma/anxiety/and attachment issues. Our therapeutic relationship is the most important part of counseling. During our sessions, my goal is to help you achieve your goal. I will be more focused on helping you achieve the goals you set than giving a diagnosis/label. I know that the hardest part of getting help is the process of asking (or seeking) help for an issue. Most of us do not want others to see us at less than our best. I feel that my role as a counselor is to genuinely care for my clients. A counselor should avoid judging or putting their value system in the way of progress. The only goal that I personally have for my clients is to achieve the best quality of life that they can create for themselves. I am a facilitator towards progress, but the engine that drives progress is within you. I look forward to meeting you.

Tricia Walsh
I am a licensed psychotherapist with extensive experience serving diverse populations struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, abuse, and various medical conditions such as cancer and chronic illness. I believe the most important catalyst for change is the relationship between therapist and client. My goal is to partner with you to reach your desired goals in a therapeutic environment. We will take these steps together to foster positive change while creating individual strategies for self-empowerment. I have been trained in EMDR which is a theory based on the belief that our brains have a natural system for processing information and experiences so that we can keep what we need for wisdom, learning, and growth. EMDR uses eye movements and other right-left stimulation to activate your brain’s processing system so you can successfully process past experiences and let go of what is not useful to you. I believe our past effects our present and future- both in adaptive and maladaptive ways. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to emotional wellbeing, inner peace, and self-love
