I specialize in EMDR therapy, helping people find relief from trauma, anxiety, and performance-based stress. My passion is working with professionals, athletes, and high achievers who feel stuck due to mental blocks. Whether you’re dealing with past trauma, anxiety, or challenges like Loss of Movement Syndrome (the yips), I offer a supportive space where you can heal and thrive. I believe in creating a non-judgmental, compassionate environment where you feel empowered to explore your emotions and experiences. My approach blends EMDR with techniques like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Person-Centered Therapy. This combination helps us tackle both the immediate challenges you’re facing and the deeper patterns that may be holding you back. Clients often appreciate how I balance evidence-based practices with a personal, empathetic touch. Our sessions aren’t just about resolving symptoms—they’re about helping you tap into your inner strength and move toward a more fulfilling life. Whether you’re looking to overcome trauma, manage anxiety, or improve your performance under pressure, I tailor my approach to meet your unique needs and goals. I’m committed to walking alongside you on your journey, supporting you as you create meaningful change and reach new personal and professional heights.

I love helping people and I am so excited for you that you are considering engaging in services! I believe in an integrative approach to therapy which means focusing on the whole person rather than one problematic behavior which is most often only a symptom of underlying issues. In order to most effectively address your emotional or mental well-being we must also address your physical, biological, social, and psychological functioning. If you are ready to make changes to allow you to more fully enjoy your life then I am eager to assist you towards your goals.

Do you find yourself achieving outward success yet feeling inwardly unsatisfied or burdened? Despite managing daily tasks and reaching goals, you may struggle to authentically connect with yourself, impacting your relationships, work, finances, and overall happiness. It's time to break free from this cycle! I specialize in helping individuals uncover underlying hurts, pains, and traumas that often hide behind "high-functioning" depression/anxiety, perfectionism, and low self-esteem. As a licensed clinical social worker grounded in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with over 6 years of experience, I am dedicated to transforming negative thought patterns and behaviors. My approach is warm, supportive, and inquisitive. I have a knack for seeing the positive in any situation, fostering a vibrant and inclusive environment where I integrate interests like reading, arts, crafts, and music/art into sessions. Together, in a supportive and non-judgmental space, we can explore these emotions and rediscover your authentic self. If you're ready to embark on a journey toward inner healing, I invite you to take the next step. Let's cultivate resilience, self-awareness, and fulfillment in your life.

My name is Edward Driver and I a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and I believe my role as a therapist is to give a voice to those who are unable to speak for themselves. Growing up in the projects of Chicago, I was surrounded by substance abuse, trauma, depression, and anxiety linked to the stresses of poverty. I grew up believing that happiness lies in accumulating wealth and achievements. However, after attaining these, I realized my true satisfaction came from helping others navigate their struggles, leading to a profound transformation in my life. Thus, I pursued a Master’s in Social Work at Barry University, where I discovered my passion for working with clients, who like myself were from historically, under-served minority communities, and were disproportionately affected by mental health disparities. As an African-American man with four sisters and three daughters, I've personally encountered and witnessed the unique challenges faced by women of color. My true passion is for helping individuals with histories of trauma, and how this trauma manifests in relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, and severe mental illness.

Trained as a psychologist (Ph.D. from Cornell University). Some 20 years later I earned a specialized graduate degree in Psychotherapy from Nova SE University, the only nationally accredited program in all of Florida. I am a fully licensed therapist in the State of Florida. I have taught psychology at Princeton, Tulane, Cornell, and Harvard Medical School. We will spend most of our time creating solutions, instead of analyzing problems. So often, therapy gets bogged down in the endless exploration of problems. Problems are the results of behaviors that didn't work for you in the past. Solutions flow from changes that will work for you starting right now. Solutions make your life better. They bring joy and peace to your life.

Because sleep quality is critical to physical and mental health I am passionate about helping people get good sleep. I received my PhD from Duke University and have been a practicing psychologist for many years. I work primarily with behavioral sleep medicine because sleep problems are so widespread and there are not enough specialists to meet the need. I continue working with people with anxiety, depression, and couples issues. The methods I use are evidence-based and trauma-informed. I am also an ordained member of the clergy (rabbi) and consider one's spirituality an important part of treatment for many, though not all people. I’ve practiced telehealth exclusively since early 2020. Most people like working this way because of convenience. Therapy is not adversely affected and I am even able to do hypnosis via telehealth.

Are you feeling stuck? Do you blame yourself or bad luck for unfortunate things that happen in your life? How are your connections with others-are those connections the quality you want them to be? I specialise in EMDR therapy; which can improve symptoms of depression, anxiety, addiction and C-PTSD. Change your narrative, build an empowered self-esteem, and have more adaptive and resilient thoughts, instead of draining and racing ones. Coping and grounding skills give you the authentic pause you need to turn your life around. Bloom to life, stop drowning in it.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Florida rather than a city like Tampa?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Florida from Miami to Jacksonville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Florida.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Insomnia/Sleep Issues?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Insomnia/Sleep Issues, is filtering therapists in Florida that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What to expect during your first session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.

Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
