You might be: -Overthinking, anxious, or needing reassurance in relationships - Feeling disconnected from your partner, even when things seem to be going okay -Trying to repair after a betrayal or affair and unsure how to move forward - You are a high-achieving, self-aware person who’s frustrated that insight hasn’t led to change yet I specialize in working with high-achieving individuals and couples, including those navigating affair recovery, parenthood, anxiety, and relationship disconnection. I know searching for a therapist can be a daunting process but I'm so glad you're here! With over 15 years of experience and training in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, I help clients understand the deeper patterns driving their experiences and how to actually change them.

Hello! I’m Mindy, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with over a decade of experience helping individuals navigate life’s complexities. I am passionate about empowering my clients to break free from self-limiting patterns and discover effective, sustainable ways to cope. My goal is to provide a safe, inclusive environment where you feel truly heard and understood.

Hi, I’m Kim, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Addiction Counselor (CAC) with over 15 years of experience supporting adults through trauma, grief and loss, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, substance use concerns, and difficult life transitions. I am trained in EMDR and have a particular interest in helping clients process painful experiences and move toward healing at a pace that feels safe and manageable. My approach is trauma-informed, collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I believe meaningful therapy begins with feeling safe, heard, respected, and free from judgment. Together, we can explore how past experiences, relationships, thoughts, emotions, and patterns of substance use or other coping behaviors may be affecting your life while developing healthier ways of coping and responding. I integrate EMDR with evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), person-centered therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. My work emphasizes emotional regulation, self-awareness, healthy boundaries, communication, self-compassion, and practical coping skills. When addressing substance use, I provide a nonjudgmental space to explore triggers, motivation for change, underlying emotional needs, and healthier strategies for managing stress and difficult emotions. I recognize that trauma, grief, mental health concerns, and substance use can be interconnected. Painful experiences may influence how we see ourselves, relate to others, and cope with distress. I approach this work with careful attention to emotional safety, preparation, stabilization, and readiness. Therapy does not need to be rushed. I value building a genuine therapeutic relationship where you can feel comfortable exploring difficult experiences, recognizing your strengths, and making meaningful changes that feel realistic and sustainable. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you better understand what you are carrying, and support you in building greater confidence, resilience, healthier coping strategies, and trust in yourself as you move forward.

For more than two decades, Kim has walked alongside individuals healing from trauma and life’s deepest challenges. Her work is grounded, steady, and deeply compassionate. Kim finds meaning in helping clients rediscover their strength, rebuild trust, and move beyond pain toward purpose. Bearing witness to transformation—both quiet and profound—is what continues to inspire her work.

I believe healing is a choice. While no one chooses to experience trauma or is responsible for what happened to them, each person has to opportunity to decide how to move forward. Therapy cannot erase the past, but it can provide the tools and support to foster healing and growth. Every individual has the capacity to change and it is my privilege to walk alongside clients as they reclaim their lives and discover their own resilience.

I want to meet you where you are and together identify a path forward.

If talking it through without homework is the way you want to go, that is fine too!

I have over 45 years of experience as a practicing psychologist. My orientation is a strength based, solution focused cognitive behavioral therapy approach. Following a thorough assessment, my goal in our initial work together. is to identify in partnership with you an in-depth understanding of the issues that lead you to contact me. and to gain an understanding of how you have attempted to resolve these issues to date. In addition, we will ascertain what you see as your applicable strengths and abilities in prior comparable life situations. By the end of session one, our goal is to be able to agree on what solutions will look like for the issues that have led you to seek therapy. and to have a game plan as to how we will initially proceed. While I have worked with a wide range of clients over the years, the vast majority have had success in the various key areas (relationism, employment, family, peers, etc.) and they are now dealing with issues/problems / a crossroads, etc. where they are looking for some assistance as they navigate these current challenges

Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor that has been practicing for over 25 years. I went to the University of South Florida for my Master's degree in Mental Health and Rehabilitative Counseling.

I have experience working with PTSD and dual diagnosis. I look forward to helping you on your journey to better mental health.

I’m a licensed clinical social worker who is deeply curious about people, who we are, and what it takes to become who we want to be. I value authenticity, curiosity, and diverse perspectives. I believe understanding ourselves means looking at the whole picture: our experiences, relationships, identities, our communities and the systems that shape them. When we do that, we expand our capacity for connection, growth, and change. Healing is not always easy or linear; it requires us to grow, sit with discomfort, challenge what we know, and try something different. As the founder Sana Libre, a healing and learning practice, I cultivate spaces that offer people compassion, accountability, and grace.

Nice to meet you, I am Jackson. I’m a therapist whose journey to this work began behind the bar, where I learned the art of truly listening and connecting with people from all walks of life. My clients often tell me that talking with me feels like catching up with a good friend—comfortable and real—while also knowing they’re in the hands of someone clinically grounded and thoughtful. I draw from psychodynamic and relational approaches, always emphasizing the importance of genuine human connection in the healing process. I’m trauma-informed and bring my own lived experiences into the room, helping clients feel seen and understood without judgment. My lifelong commitment to health and wellness—including earning a black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, surfing, and practicing yoga—deepens the mind-body awareness I bring to my work and has been pivotal on my own path. Whether we’re unpacking the past or navigating the present, I strive to create a space that is compassionate, authentic, and attuned to your whole self.

Choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision, and I honor the courage it takes to begin this process. If we work together, you can expect a therapeutic relationship built on trust, collaboration, and respect. I create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can show up as you are—no masks, no pressure—and begin to explore what healing and growth look like for you. My approach is thoughtful and tailored. I draw from evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Therapy, adapting each session to meet your needs and goals. Whether you are navigating anxiety, self-doubt, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, I help you make sense of your experiences, strengthen emotional awareness, and find new ways to move forward. I believe therapy should not just be about coping—it should be about transformation. That might mean learning how to quiet an inner critic, setting healthier boundaries, deepening relationships, or reconnecting with your sense of purpose. We will work at a pace that feels right for you, and I will walk beside you each step of the way with compassion, curiosity, and care. If you are looking for a therapist who listens deeply, challenges gently, and is committed to helping you build a more grounded and empowered version of your life, I would be honored to work with you.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or challenged by relationships or life decisions? Therapy can provide a supportive space to gain clarity, build insight, and move forward with intention. Selecting the right therapist is an important step. When I was a teen, I wished I had someone to talk to that wouldn't judge me, so I resolved to be that person for others. I do my best to provide an objective, proactive, compassionate presence to help navigate life’s complexities. With over 12 years of clinical experience, I support clients facing anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, career transitions, burnout, parenting challenges, neurodivergence, and existential or spiritual questions. I take a collaborative, individualized approach, integrating evidence-based practices to align with each client’s unique goals. If you’re ready to begin the process of growth and change, I would be honored to support you.

Hi, I'm glad you’re here. I’m Liz Sullivan, and I specialize in helping stressed out, busy achievers find their joy in life, and gain control over stress, anxiety and overthinking. When I meet them, my clients often say life feels like a grind. They are accomplished doers, always busy, but often feel stressed, frustrated and lonely. Everything is on their to-do list (except themselves), and they are realizing they want things to be different. It's possible to let go of your stressors, feel relaxed, enjoy your relationships, and have the energy to do what you love. My expertise is in teaching the tools that will help you break free from what feels like an endless stream of demands with no satisfying finish line.

I believe good therapy should be both meaningful and practical. I draw from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and humanistic approaches, but I don't believe therapy should feel like a one-size-fits-all formula. And yes, I believe there is room for humor in therapy. Logic, compassion, curiosity, and a healthy dose of humor are some of the tools I bring.

I am here for you. My name is Dr. Jay Rhodes, and I am a Clinical Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor (LCMFT-S) in Maryland, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Supervisor (LMFT-S) and Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor (LPC-S) in Oklahoma and Texas, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC-S) in Florida, a National Board for Certified Counselors-CCE-Approved Clinical Supervisor, and AAMFT Clinical Fellow and Approved Supervisor Candidate. I have extensive education, experience, and expertise in various fields of counseling, ministry, and human relations. I have worked with clients from diverse backgrounds and cultures in various settings, such as military bases, combat zones, hospitals, schools, embassies, consulates, and nonprofit homeless ministries. I taught Marriage & Family Therapy (Trauma, Grief, and Counseling Theory) at the graduate level and provide clinical supervision for Texas A&M-Central Texas. I have a passion for helping individuals find healing, growth, and transformation in their lives. I have helped individuals, couples, families, children, adolescents, and groups deal with a wide range of issues such as anxiety, anger, traumatic stress, and relationships. I have helped others; I can help you.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in ADHD therapy for adults, couples, families, and college students across Florida and Wisconsin struggling with emotional exhaustion, unfinished tasks, relationship conflict, burnout, or chronic overwhelm. Many of the clients I work with have spent years feeling frustrated with not being able to consistently follow through, stay organized, manage emotions, or function at the level they know they are capable of. Before becoming a therapist, I spent over 20 years as a Life Coach and ADHD Coach, studying and working exclusively with one condition: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). That experience gave me firsthand insight into how deeply ADHD can affect confidence, relationships, emotional regulation, organization, and everyday functioning over time. This foundation allows me to help clients address the emotional and relational patterns that often develop after years of feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, disorganized, or mentally overloaded. My work centers on helping people better understand how ADHD affects emotions, relationships, and everyday life so they can move forward with greater clarity and self-understanding. Together, we'll identify what's getting in the way and build practical strategies that actually fit how your brain works.

Thank you for taking time to learn a little about me. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Addictions Professional with over 28 years of counseling experience in clinical, private and educational settings. I practice Client-centered therapy. For those who are unfamiliar with Client-centered therapy it is based on the practice that the CLIENT is best able to decide what to explore and mark as a goal of treatment. I empower all my clients without compromising empathy. Whatever the reason any individual, couple, or family comes to me, I challenge their skillset to solve problems and restore resolve; not simply provide short-term solutions. The first step to achieve this is to build a rapport with essential empathy and unconditional positive regard. I believe in relationships. Seems a little elementary but one's physical, mental, and overall wellness is dependent on relations that we have with each other. No matter how large or small one's family is, and/or social circle we were all meant to establish and grow relationships. No level of true self-reflection would escape this fact. I witnessed this to be true in all of my clients as with myself. I currently reside Central Florida with my wife, son, and three daughters. As a family we enjoy an active lifestyle supportive of one another and the family dynamic. I welcome the opportunity to work with you, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

As a Florida native based in Pensacola, I primarily offer online therapy sessions, with a focus on evening and weekend availability. I understand that these times often provide greater convenience for clients balancing busy schedules, and I am committed to working flexibly to find a session time that best suits your needs. With over 18 years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with individuals of all ages and diverse backgrounds. My practice is dedicated to providing caring, effective, and solution-focused therapy to those navigating challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship complexities, chronic conditions, and significant life transitions. My therapeutic approach is rooted in a blend of Rogerian (person-centered) principles and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Additionally, I integrate clinical hypnosis (when appropriate) and mindfulness practices to foster deeper insight and facilitate positive, lasting change. My aim is to weave these powerful techniques into a seamless, purposeful conversation, tailored specifically to your journey. Through our collaborative work, we will clearly define your personal goals, identify the most effective strategies for your unique situation, and reinforce new skills to ensure the changes you make are sustainable and deeply integrated into your life.

Hi! I'm Eileen. Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues? Since the onslaught of Covid 19, many people have presented with anxiety and depression who have never had symptoms in the past. We have experienced a time of uncertainty unknown to us. I empower clients of all ages to manage anxiety and depression, as well as provide tools to help. Some of my modalities include Solution-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and Psychotherapy. An integrated approach can be used as well. I have been described as a good, caring, sensitive, and energetic listener. I love being a therapist and enjoy seeing my clients grow over time due to putting in the necessary work. I have a background in Strategic Intervention Life Coaching and integrate the methods I used successfully in my Life Coaching business into my therapy sessions with my clients in helping them to clarify their goals, identify obstacles holding them back, and then along with the client, help them come up with strategies for overcoming the obstacles. I look forward to the opportunity to work with YOU!!

Hello there I’m Johnny, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Miami, Florida. Outside of my work, I’m someone who loves to explore new places, try different foods, and spend time outdoors. Traveling gives me perspective and reminds me how much there is to learn from different people and cultures. I also enjoy cooking, scuba diving, and finding quiet moments near the ocean whenever I can. I’ve always had a curious side—I’m fascinated by astronomy and love collecting action figures, con's, which is something that’s stuck with me since childhood. Those small interests keep me grounded and remind me to make space for the things that bring joy. Family is important to me, I value humor, honesty, and connection, both in my personal life and in the relationships I build every day. I believe that who we are outside of our work matters just as much as what we do, and I try to live in a way that reflects that balance.

Many of my clients come to me initially feeling lost, overwhelmed, confused, or just wanting to expand their purpose, challenge themselves, or even rediscover who they are. Many are experiencing symptoms of anxiety, depression, or even symptoms they can't explain or identify. I serve a vast variety of clients and complexities, but one common goal is- "I just want to feel better." And together... we accomplish that and more. We’ll work together to develop strategies that empower you to overcome obstacles and bounce back stronger.

Hi, I’m Rayan, a licensed mental health counselor who’s passionate about helping people feel seen, understood, and supported. I specialize in working with clients navigating anxiety, life transitions, identity exploration, and burnout. My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and culturally affirming. I believe in creating a space where you can show up fully—no masks, no judgment—as we work together to build insight, set boundaries, and reconnect with your inner strength.

What typically surprises people is that I am the 11th of 13 children - all from the same parents. Growing up with so many siblings has given me a great opportunity to learn about family dynamics and effective discipline. My parents did a great job of maintaining a safe and well-behaved home, and I use their example as a template while also incorporating my own experience as a parent for working with families today. As for my approach to therapy, I use several different theories depending on the need of the client; however, my primary mode is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It just fits my personality. If you are looking for a therapist who focuses solely on your emotions and how you're feeling on any given day, then I will not be a good fit for you. On the other hand, if you're looking for a therapist who not only does all that but who will also listen to everything you say (as well as the meaning behind what you say) and then challenge your thinking habits to help you find more effective and productive thinking patterns, then I'm on board for that. I learned a long time ago that many clients do not want things "Sugar Coated", but rather prefer their therapist to be respectfully bold and blunt. If this is who you are looking for in a therapist, then let's get to work.

Hi! I'm Femina Patel, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I believe that the best way to empower individuals is through counseling. I specialize in providing counseling services to individuals and families. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I have much experience in helping individuals improve their mental health. I have worked within many community mental health agency settings and am familiar with clients that have a range of diagnoses from anxiety/depression to SPMI(Serious and persistent mental illness). I believe in creating a safe and supportive environment for my clients to share their thoughts and feelings so they can discover their strengths and learn the skills necessary to overcome their challenges. With my help, you can achieve the mental and emotional well-being you need to reach your goals and lead a happy and fulfilling life. ***If you are seeking services for a minor a consultation with me is required to move forward with an intake appointment.***

When your child or teen is struggling, it can leave you feeling worried, overwhelmed, and unsure of what will actually help.

My name is Oswaldo “Oz” Castro, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with extensive experience supporting individuals across a wide range of needs and life stages. My passion as a therapist is helping people find hope, healing, and practical tools to move forward. I began my career in neurofeedback, spending 7 years working with children, adolescents, and adults with ADHD, autism, sleep difficulties, anxiety, depression, and other neurodivergent experiences. I later gained 5 years of experience at a drug rehabilitation facility, supporting individuals on their recovery journey from substance use. From there, I spent 2 years at a survivor’s center, helping individuals heal from domestic violence, violent crimes, and grief. During this time, I also worked closely with the LGBTQIA+ community, including facilitating groups for individuals of the trans experience. I also worked for 5 years with children and adolescents transitioning out of a Baker Act and receiving sometimes getting into therapy for the first time, which gave me extensive experience in crisis intervention, family systems, and the importance of providing stability and hope during vulnerable times. Most recently, for the past 3 years, I have been serving clients through the Grow Therapy, where I’ve had the privilege of reaching individuals who previously struggled to access care or find a therapeutic connection locally. This work has strengthened my belief that therapy should be accessible, collaborative, and tailored to each person’s unique story. If you’re seeking a therapist who will meet you with empathy, understanding, and practical support, I would be honored to work alongside you. Together, we can create a path toward the goals and growth you want for yourself.

I work with individuals who want to feel more confident, grounded, and fulfilled in their lives. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling anxious, stuck, or unsure of how to cope with ongoing stress, relationship struggles, or self-doubt. They’re often caring and capable people who appear to have it together on the outside but feel overwhelmed or disconnected on the inside. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you can explore what’s getting in the way of feeling your best. Together, we’ll work on building coping tools, improving self-esteem, and creating more balanced, authentic relationships. I take a collaborative approach—one that combines compassion with practical strategies—to help you better understand your emotions, break unhelpful patterns, and make lasting change. Therapy with me often involves strengthening emotional awareness, identifying core beliefs, and learning new ways to respond to challenges. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or simply feeling “not enough,” our work focuses on helping you reconnect with your sense of worth and agency. Relationships are a central part of healing, both with others and with yourself. In our sessions, we’ll explore communication, boundaries, and self-trust, helping you develop skills that support healthier, more fulfilling connections. I also integrate mindfulness and cognitive-behavioral strategies to help you stay present, manage stress, and build resilience. Ultimately, I believe therapy is a process of self-discovery—one that helps you move from surviving to truly living. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling understood, empowered, and equipped with the tools you need to navigate life with greater confidence and clarity.

I am committed to providing compassionate, practical, and client-centered care to individuals navigating life’s challenges. I strive to create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered to grow. My approach integrates evidence-based therapies with empathy, collaboration, and a focus on helping clients build healthier, more meaningful lives. My technique is to bring in laughter where appropriate, but also to challenge you.

Hi, I'm Dr. Clay Connelly but please just call me "Clay." I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 15 years of experience helping adolescents and adults navigate life's challenges. I believe therapy works best when clients feel comfortable, respected, and genuinely heard. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and practical, helping clients identify patterns that may be keeping them stuck while building skills to create meaningful change. I work with individuals facing anxiety, depression, anger, stress, relationship difficulties, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and other emotional challenges.

With over 18 years of dedicated service in counseling, I am committed to enhancing mental health and well-being in clients of all ages. My journey began when I was impacted by a compassionate school counselor during my younger years. Inspired by her positive influence, I embarked on this path to support others in their mental health journeys.

I work with clients on anxiety management, depression support, assist in navigating grief, ADHD or other behavioral challenges, & help foster healthy relationships & family systems.

*Currently accepting new clients via teletherapy, and in-person.* I am ready to help you! I have been a therapist for 10+ years and my mission is to help you find balance in your life. I view therapy through a holistic standpoint, in which I use the mind and the body to help you get to the wellness that you so deserve. I became a therapist because I wanted to help clients navigate the stresses of work and life and make meaningful changes that would improve their mental well-being. At the first session, you can expect a non-judgmental and an easy-going conversation to build up a therapeutic alliance. At the moment, I practice in-person and over tele-health, giving us the flexibility to connect conveniently and safely. I received a Master's degree in family psychology, in 2010, from Hardin-Simmons University in Texas. I engage others by helping them feel comfortable while also being solution focused.

I am a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida. I bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to my work. I employ a collaborative approach that is infused with compassion and, when appropriate, a sprinkling of humor. I believe that therapy is a journey, and I am committed to walking alongside my clients as they work toward their goals. I do have a 15-minute expectation for session arrival. Once 15 minutes has passed and a client has not showed up or messaged me, the appointment is canceled and a no-show fee is charged.

Life can throw us curveballs, and sometimes we need a little extra support to find our way through. As a therapist, my goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Together, we can navigate the internal and external challenges you’re facing and work towards finding relief. Using a cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) approach, I’ll help you discover new perspectives on your situation, learn to embrace difficult emotions, and develop healthy coping strategies that fit your unique needs. My aim is to make our sessions comfortable and engaging, often bringing a touch of humor to lighten the load. I have experience working with individuals from all walks of life, including college students and emerging adults navigating transitions. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or other life changes, I’m dedicated to supporting you in building resilience and finding your path forward. Let’s work together to turn challenges into opportunities for growth. Reach out today to take the first step toward a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Hi there, I'm Renita. I'm happy that you have landed here in search of doing some very important work to improve your life! Mental health plays such an important role in how we advocate, manage and show up for ourselves and the way we navigate our world. I help support individuals and couples who feel overwhelmed by constantly trying to balance and grab a hold of the many responsibilities of their day to day that impacts their relationships, work and/or health.

I am skilled in exploring and strategizing with those looking to be held accountable for positive lifestyle changes by using their strengths to encourage growth. I help individuals and couples learn effective strategies to combat anxiety, depression, extreme stress and communication difficulties. Together, we can identify your strengths and challenges and utilize both to work towards bringing balance into your life. We'll use a person centered approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit while taking into account your current environment and life experiences both past and present. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to work with you throughout the journey to empower you and equip you with useful tools and resources.
