LMHC, 20 years of experience
Frequently rebooked
Greetings, You may have read through a few profiles, and I owe you to feel the difference with mine. My name is Brahm, well, actually it is Robert Abraham Fay, my parents were hippies, so you can see where that went. Life can be difficult, and I know this first-hand. By the age of 17 I was in a homeless shelter (due to a violent alcoholic stepfather), and I had some people help me along the way. Vocational Rehabilitation helped me get a bike, and I rode to Valencia College for 2 years, was recruited to Rollins College on a grant, and attended grad-school at Troy University. I have taught upon resilience in: China, Russia, Germany, and the US. Here's what's up, of course life is difficult, and the more we run from it the more we suffer. All those years in homeless shelters taught me how to ask for help when necessary. I am a licensed clinician - perhaps trapped in a case manager's body. Counselors can provide a flashlight on all of the nooks & crannies of the past, but as your case manager, we are looking at a spotlight on your future. My job is to get fired. Plain and simple. If you are a member of a marginalized population, including all of my LGBTAQLatin+ Non-Binary, Sis, Pan, Poly & Unlabeled family, I see you and I love you. Let's find your voice, and then you can fire me! YAY!!! (confetti) That's the thrust of my existence, when I text you -- and you say, "Thank you for everything, Brahm, I think I've got this now." See? That's what's up.
I am training wheels, and my job is to eventually get fired. :) From the outset we will be planing on what is needed for relief and answers. Once self-awareness is achieved, we can marvel at your clinical progress. Once you feel consolidation of thoughts, feelings, and emotions, we can look at maintaining healthful behaviors, and I move forward and help the next one. Everything happens at the speed of life, so down the road if you need an oil-change or a tune-up we can schedule accordingly. Stay safe and be well.
I feel like I can support any population, as long as they are comfortable with telehealth. My preference is with anyone that sincerely seeks relief. As a clinician, I consider prognosis, and I have come to understand that the higher the patient buy-in, the higher on the Likert Scale of 1-10 correlates to affirmative discharge from services. I believe that we are here to: get in, assess, address, process, maintain, and confirm. I believe I can do that with most anyone -- online in the state of Florida.
Trauma, LGBTQLatin+Pan People aged 18-50yrs, and anyone ready for relief. Grief & loss, and anxiety & depression are my staple services.

I love Brahm! Our conversations are always so easy and comfortable. The homework he gives me is so on point! He hears exactly what Im saying and always has wonderful recommendations to give me direction between sessions. Its so nice to not feel like I have to over explain myself to be heard or understood. He has introduced me to several resources that have helped me find hope in furthering my goals and find belonging. Brahm truly cares and never makes me feel judged for opening up and being me.

I have been having session with him for about 3 years now. He is a great Licensed therapist and that’s why I have always been with him. He is my go to person whenever life seems overwhelming.
Meaning, purpose, and value is what I seek in all of my people. I currently have a tribe (some call it a practice) of 20 or so patients -- which means I'm a focused clinician. What are we here for? Why do I exist? What is my purpose being here? We are all seeking that; and welcome to the journey.
