Hi! I’m Jackie. I received my master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California and am currently a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in both the states of Florida and California. I’ve worked in the most acute settings, including Los Angeles County jail and Psychiatric crisis emergency rooms in Miami, so I have heard it all and seen it all! I have seen patients at their worst and have come to realize how important it is to have that therapeutic support in order to maintain health and wellness. It is truly amazing and inspiring to be a part of the therapeutic process and see the turn around that people can make in their lives. I see every patient as their own and no one case is the same. Your treatment plan and the flow of our sessions will be uniquely adapted to your own personal needs. I am here to support you and walk alongside you on your journey of change. I look forward to working with you!

Hello there, so glad you're here, I’m Juliana (she/her), but you can call me Julie. Have you ever felt that life just hasn't been going the way you'd envisioned? That things seem "too hard to handle"? Are relationships too hard to keep healthy because "you don't feel like you"? I'm here to help navigate to get you to a place of "feeling like yourself again." I am a therapist with over 12 years of experience who works with adolescents and young adults. I work to grow the resiliency skills that you already possess, seeking ways to self-care as a way to manage stress, how to express yourself and other ways to improve communication skills, explore who you want to be, and how to get there and everything in between. I empower individuals to overcome anxiety and depression through organic discussions and the introduction of boundary-setting (internally and externally), self-regulating techniques, and stress management. I love to use a multimodality approach that best suits your needs. I look forward to working along side of you.

Hi, thank you for considering me as part of your support team. My name is Yolanda and I want to share with you a little about how you and I would work together. You may be experiencing a ton of different emotions, or maybe there is one specific feeling you can't seem to shake. For example, are tehre times where you find yourself overthinking situations or experiencing thoughts going so fast it's hard to keep up with them? What about experiencing extreme sadness with a lack of motivation to do anything, even get out of bed? Has there been a time when you felt like crying, but you couldn't figure out why? These feelings are overwhelming and are just a few things we can address during your sessions. I offer support and provide tips and tricks to get through the day while working together to figure out why this is happening.

Have you ever asked yourself, "why don't I feel good about myself and my choices in life?" I want to help you explore those feelings and get to the root cause so we can reveal the parts of you that feel alive and whole again. Do you remember the hopes and dreams you had as a child? What happened to those dreams? It could be life events or circumstances, some that were out of your control and some that you made consciously or unconsciously. If you have experienced trauma, sexual trauma, this can contribute to your mental, physical, and emotional struggles. Sexual trauma is not easy to discuss, as it is a taboo topic, and you may not find you can share your story with your friends and family. Secrecy is part of the toxic shame that often leads to issues with self-esteem, relationships, intimacy, and other behavioral problems. Every person has the answers within themselves to reveal the shiny pearl in the bed of a sandy oyster. I can help you if you are ready to do the work of personal growth and healing.

Hi there and great job on taking that first step in considering if therapy is right for you. I invite you to come with me on a journey of your own choosing where we will walk together in darkness to find the light you’ve been seeking. Whether it’s life’s little annoying stressors or more complex issues, as a trauma survivor myself, I know firsthand what this is like and wouldn’t wish it on anyone. Whether you choose me or another therapist, make the choice to just give it a try. Sometimes all you need is another person to hold the light while you do the work you need to heal.

As a therapist working with teens and women in their 20s and 30s, I see a common issue: the pressure to be perfect, perform well, and please others often leads to exhaustion, self-sabotage, and burnout. This challenge isn’t talked about enough. Navigating transitions like college, grad school, finding a partner, and starting a family can make it hard to feel on track. If you’re struggling with self-doubt, remember you’re not alone. Let’s talk about it together.

I will approach your individual therapeutic needs by tailoring the treatment plan to meet your unique and specific individual counseling needs. I believe that my experience and therapeutic approach can be very useful with the type of challenges that you might be facing at this time.
