Hello ! I am Sergio Fernando Gueller, LCSW, I am an American citizen and love our Blessed country with all my heart; I am also an immigrant from Latin America, Argentina, who arrived to this country at age 19 (I am currently 65), "tired and poor" and escaping an unstable political environment and difficult socioeconomic perspectives. I completed my training in Europe and Latin America through my participation in many seminars and obtaining several certifications in this field, however, all my formal education took place in California and Oregon, in the USA. My approach to psychotherapy is eclectic and practical and am focused on providing immediate alleviation and crisis resolution to my clients via powerful cognitive/behavioral tools which I use daily in my practice. I am a simple person and my approach is formal and respectful, however, I use respectful/sensitive humor and levity therapeutically when appropriate as I believe it is a major part of my method.

I'll never judge you—but I may challenge you. I believe meaningful growth happens when compassion and honesty work together. My practice is centered on creating a warm, supportive environment where adults can explore life's challenges, better understand themselves, and develop practical tools for lasting change. I recognize that every person brings a unique story, strengths, and experiences to therapy. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor treatment to each client's individual needs, preferences, and goals. I draw from a variety of evidence-based approaches and believe therapy is most effective when clients feel both supported and empowered. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, stress, and life transitions. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply seeking greater self-understanding, my goal is to help you identify patterns that no longer serve you, build upon your strengths, and create meaningful, lasting change. You don't have to navigate life's challenges alone.

I am a licensed therapist who believes that meaningful change begins when we slow down and meet ourselves with curiosity instead of judgment. My path to this work wasn’t linear; I spent fifteen years in a different career before making my own midlife transition to mental health a decade ago. That experience taught me firsthand the courage it takes to reinvent yourself. My clinical foundation was forged in community mental health, where I had the privilege of working with a beautifully diverse cross-section of people—including LGBTQIA+ individuals, neurodivergent folks, elders and other marginalized communities. This rich background has shaped me into a practitioner who values inclusivity, honors identity, and meets every client exactly where they are in their healing journey.

Welcome! My name is Dr. La Toshia Palmer, and I provide a supportive, culturally responsive space for students and young adults—particularly those from historically marginalized communities who are navigating anxiety, depression, anger, and life stressors. My approach is grounded in psychoeducation, helping clients better understand their emotions, build practical coping skills, and develop confidence in managing everyday challenges. I work with individuals who are ready to grow, heal, and strengthen their sense of identity and resilience. Together, we focus on creating clarity, emotional balance, and meaningful progress toward personal, academic, and long-term goals.

I am a husband, father and business owner who enjoys traveling, sports, music and chess. I grew up in Fort Myers, Florida and I have 2 children age 14 and 9. I became a therapist after pursuing different career paths in music and sports. I also spent a few years as a medical sales rep before 2020 and discovered a true passion for helping others improve their quality of life within online virtual therapy.

I believe psychotherapy is a tool to understand oneself and grow as an individual, It can also be used to form a relationship where safety allows a person to share their innermost thoughts and feelings and then work towards symptom alleviation and improving self-concept, social and family relationships, and find personal contentment and fulfillment in their lives. I have been in the psychotherapy field for over 45 years and love working with people of all ages, sexual preferences, racial and ethnic groups, and mental health problems presented. My approach is kind, compassionate, and considerate of people's wishes, needs, and preferences.

Seeking therapy takes courage, and finding the right therapist is an important first step. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 37 years of behavioral health experience helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, stress, grief, caregiving responsibilities, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel heard, respected, and supported while also gaining tools to make meaningful changes in your life. Together, we will identify your strengths, explore patterns that may be contributing to current challenges, and develop strategies to help you move forward with greater confidence and resilience. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds and strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where growth and healing can occur.

Seeking therapy is a courageous first step toward healing. You deserve to feel seen and supported. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, low self-esteem, grief, and the lasting effects of difficult experiences. I offer a warm, supportive, therapeutic partnership where you can feel understood and empowered to make meaningful change. I have been practicing for 7 years and while I currently provide Telehealth services, I have experience working across a variety of settings including community mental health agencies, within school systems, and in group practice, which has given me the gift of working with individuals from many different walks of life. My approach is integrative and strengths-based, meaning I consider how your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and life experiences are interconnected while drawing from approaches including CBT, IFS, attachment theory, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care to help you build insight, develop practical tools, and create lasting change. I believe healing happens within a strong therapeutic relationship, and together we’ll build practical tools, deepen self-understanding, and work toward the goals that matter most to you in a way that feels authentic and sustainable.

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.
