Hello! I'm Jim, and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, licensed in both Florida and Connecticut. I'd like to support you in building the life you imagine! Life can be happy, joyous, and fulfilling. However, life can also be challenging at times. Challenges may involve external situations which we're currently facing, they may be internal struggles involving our feelings and thoughts, or both. During these challenging times, it is often beneficial to work with an empathetic, supportive, and knowledgeable therapist who will assist you in taking the steps necessary to deal with such challenges effectively and move forward with your life. I have 14 years of experience as a therapist working with adolescents, adults, and seniors dealing with a variety of issues. I have worked as a therapist in a nonprofit outpatient mental health and substance abuse treatment agency, treating clients with depression, anxiety, and substance use disorders. As a primary therapist in an inpatient substance abuse treatment facility, I have supported clients as they begin their journeys of sobriety and recovery. I have also assisted patients and family members facing end-of-life issues as a home hospice social worker.

Hello, I'm Dr. Ebonee. Do you feel pulled in a million directions, struggling to keep up with relationships, work, and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I help individuals manage anxiety, avoid burnout, and break free from cycles of trauma, stress, and self-doubt. Together, we can identify what’s not working and get you back to balance. My interest in spirituality, which is not tied to any specific religion, allows me to offer a holistic approach to healing that addresses the emotional, psychological, and spiritual dimensions of well-being. I emphasize trauma’s role in shaping core beliefs, psychosocial stressors, and generational patterns, recognizing its imprint on the central nervous system. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), coaching, and positive psychology to reframe trauma narratives, foster self-discovery, and disrupt patterns of depression, anxiety, and re-traumatization. Whether you're navigating trauma, relationship challenges, or cycles of stress and overwhelm, I provide a safe space where healing begins. I know it may seem impossible, but what if I told you that you have the power to change your life? Now is the perfect time to start your healing journey. In our sessions, I’ll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques to help you overcome the hangups and habits holding you back. Let’s work together to build communication strategies, set boundaries, break cyclical trauma patterns, and foster self-worth for long-term stability. I’m excited to be on this journey with you!

Depression
As a therapist, I am here to support and guide individuals on their journey towards healing, self-discovery, and personal growth. I provide a safe and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and experiences, and work collaboratively with them to address their concerns and achieve their therapeutic goals. Through empathy, understanding, and evidence-based interventions, I strive to empower clients to navigate life's challenges, develop coping skills, and cultivate resilience to live more fulfilling and authentic lives.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of clinical experience in a variety of settings including both inpatient and outpatient units, community mental health clinics and correctional facilities. I have experience providing individual and group treatment for patients and families. I strive to provide a safe space for self-exploration and I have solid diagnostic and assessment skills. This allows for a keen understanding of the person and the modality that will allow the client to meet their clinical goals. I believes that a core underpinning of treatment is respecting each individual's uniqueness and working collaboratively to build resilience and discover individual strengths. I have long been an advocate for the underserved and marginalized in our society and have worked to decrease the stigma associated with mental health treatment.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). I have worked with individuals in the mental health field for 10 years. With life come trials and tribulations! This journey is about progress, not perfection, everyone is capable of change. When people experience trauma or severe life stressors, it is not uncommon for their lives to unravel. I seek to humanize mental health struggles and encourage therapy to everyone as the path to normalizing and living a healthy, active, fulfilling life. I am dedicated to working with individuals who have symptoms of anxiety, depression, managing their anger, and trauma-related issues. I help individuals identify the root of the underlying pain, fear, insecurity, and lack of motivation.

Engaging in therapy can be a difficult decision for many people. Whether you are going through a life change, or you feel the need to put the past behind, or maybe simply wish to know yourself better, relate to your loved ones better, improve your academic or professional performance, face your fears, overcome a loss, or just wish to learn more efficient ways to deal with life stressors... these are all great reasons to engage in therapy. For me, genuineness, openness, and a non-judgmental approach are essential ingredients to connect with you, support you, and guide you in your journey. I have 28 years of experience. I am bilingual (Spanish) and I have professional work experience from three different countries (Spain, UK, USA). I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), Certified substance abuse counselor (CADC), Certified EMDR clinician, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist and I am also trained in Brain spotting. Life can be very challenging; I strive to understand and empathize with your individual circumstances and work hand in hand with you to restore your inner balance. We can never completely control what life throws at us, but we can control and modify how we respond to life events internally and externally.
