Life can feel overwhelming at times, whether you are dealing with anxiety, going through a big change, feeling burned out, or stuck in old habits. Therapy offers a place to pause, find clarity, and learn practical tools for lasting change. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps adults understand themselves, improve their emotional health, and build better relationships. My style is warm, collaborative, and sensitive to your background and experiences. I create a safe space where you feel heard and accepted. Together, we will identify what is holding you back and develop a treatment plan that aligns with your strengths, values, and goals. I use proven methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Person-Centered Therapy, mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing. If you are facing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, relationship issues, or big life changes, we will work together to build coping skills, manage emotions, and create lasting change. I also have experience with crisis intervention, LGBTQ+ affirming care, group therapy, and working with other professionals on your care. I became a therapist because I have seen how much a caring, supportive space can help people heal. Working in both schools and clinics has made me even more passionate about helping people from all backgrounds feel respected, empowered, and supported as they work toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. When I am not working, I like to read, visit bookstores and coffee shops, travel, make crafts, and spend time with my Cavapoo. These hobbies help me stay grounded and bring balance, curiosity, and mindfulness into my work with clients. Starting therapy can feel intimidating, but you do not have to do it alone. I would be honored to support you as you work toward healing, growth, and lasting well-being.

I’m a therapist and writer, and I have always been fascinated by people and their stories. I studied Journalism at the School of Visual Arts in New York City, thinking that being a reporter would give me a front-row seat to the drama of humanity. My first writing job out of college was at a condo newspaper, covering scintillating topics like flood insurance and HVAC systems. I decided to make a bold move and took a job as a dominatrix in an S&M parlor in Manhattan’s growing fetish community. I planned to write a few articles and be on my way. As it turned out, I loved the work. Better than a front seat—this was like a backstage pass! It was more than playacting; I bore witness to my clients’ lusts, fantasies, and fears. It blew open my mind and expanded my views on sexuality, privacy, gender identity, and what is considered “normal.” I realized that I wasn’t just role-playing—I was helping them resolve issues, come to terms with their inner lives, and provide catharsis—kind of like a therapist, but in leather. I used my whip money to attend graduate school and study Psychology. I thought it would be nice to have a profession I could talk about at Thanksgiving—and I was tired of people asking if they could touch my feet. Writing continued to be a part of my life. I sold articles, wrote for newspapers, magazines, film, and television, and had my share of plot twists. Nowadays, I love to read, cook, write, go on long drives, and break a sweat. During the pandemic, I discovered trail running, and this year, I competed in a 50-mile relay race through the Florida Keys.

I work collaboratively with clients to increase self-awareness, emotional regulation, and insight into patterns that affect relationships and personal growth.

I’m a trauma-informed therapist and founder of Roots Healing Alliance, where I support individuals and couples in deep, integrative healing that connects mind, body, and lived experience. My work is rooted in both clinical training and lived experience, I’ve been drawn to understanding people and emotional depth for as long as I can remember, and I bring that lifelong curiosity into the therapy space. I specialize in helping clients make sense of anxiety, trauma, and relationship patterns through a blend of psychodynamic, somatic, attachment-based, and interpersonal approaches. I also incorporate Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Critical Memory Integration (CMI), and brain-based strategies to support emotional processing and nervous system regulation. Clients often describe my style as direct, warm, and authentically human, with a sense of humor that helps make heavy work feel more approachable. I don’t show up with a “therapist mask,” but as a real person who can sit with struggle while also helping you move through it. I work especially well with therapists, healers, and high-insight clients who are ready for meaningful, lasting change.

Hi, I'm Grace! If you're feeling overwhelmed, unheard, or exhausted from trying to manage everything on your own, therapy can be a place to find support, understanding, and relief. You may be struggling with anxiety, depression, intense emotions, or patterns of behavior that no longer serve you. Maybe you're feeling stuck, disconnected, or simply looking for a space where you can finally talk openly about what you're experiencing. Whatever brings you here, I'm glad you're taking this step. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming environment where you feel comfortable being yourself. I believe meaningful change happens when people feel safe, respected, and genuinely heard. In our work together, you can expect a compassionate, judgment-free space where we'll explore what's contributing to your struggles, identify your strengths, and build practical tools to help you navigate life's challenges. I take a whole-person approach to therapy, recognizing that your experiences, relationships, environment, and personal history all play a role in your mental health. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, which is why I focus on meeting you where you are and tailoring therapy to your unique needs and goals. Whether you want to better manage difficult emotions, reduce distressing symptoms, improve relationships, or make changes in behaviors that are holding you back, we'll work together at a pace that feels right for you. You are the expert on your life, but you don't have to do it alone. I would be honored to support you along the way.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a San Francisco native, a military veteran, and a lifelong art lover who finally found the courage to answer my truest calling during the whirlwind of 2020. I haven’t looked back since. I am deeply passionate about bridging the gaps in mental health care and destigmatizing therapy—because taking care of your mind should be as normal as taking care of your body. When I’m not in the therapist chair, my life is beautifully full. I’m a homeschooling mom to six incredible girls (yes, six!), married to my childhood sweetheart, and a big fan of making meals from scratch and catching a double feature at the drive-in movie theater. My Approach I bring that same blend of heart, dedication, and real-world chaos into my practice. I take a direct, down-to-earth approach, and I love working with people who are truly ready to show up, connect, and do the work. My space is for teens and adults navigating messy transitions, trauma, PTSD/CPTSD, bipolar disorder, and personality disorders. Whether you are running on fumes or struggling with a loud inner critic, my goal is to provide a warm, judgment-free space where you can drop the mask, laugh, cry, and be totally honest. Together, we’ll unpack the heavy stuff so you can finally learn to love, see, and choose yourself.

I have known I wanted to work with people since I was in elementary school. By my psychology class in high school, I knew that’s what I wanted to do. When I was getting my undergraduate degree, my grandparents, whom had been a major emotional support for me, had been diagnosed with dementia. I learned firsthand the stress that can create for individuals and families. My next step was graduate school where I began to learn the skills and strategies to work with people and help them. Since then, I have worked with individuals and families during some of their more stressful times to process and identify their thoughts and feelings while implementing helpful change.

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, 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.

It's possible to let go of your stressors, feel relaxed, enjoy your relationships, and have the energy to do what you love.

I am doctoral-trained therapist who integrates evidenced based clinical practices in ways that can meet your unique needs/challenges. For instance, I will utilize your strengths, resources and culture in order to explore problems from multiple vantage points. And, I will develop a treatment plan that incorporates co-existing issues. Whether you are experiencing family problems, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or another issue, I will facilitate conversations where solutions to the problem become more accessible and visible: I believe my clients have the capacity and agency to take actions that are right for them. These are times of uncertainty and challenges for many people. Each person, relationship and family is impacted differently. I am trained to work with individuals, couples, children and families; hence, I am prepared to offer you or your family comprehensive and holistic recommendations. This can be that first step toward an experience where the destination will be determined by each of you. If this speaks to you, I invite you to contact me and schedule a consultation.

Hi, I'm Aaron. Are you someone who just feels like life is kicking you while you are down? Are you constantly looking in the mirror and disliking what you see? Do you find that no matter where you are and who you are with, you still feel alone? Let's see if we can change that. Let's aim to challenge our thoughts and be there for ourselves. Let's create a plan that will empower us to take back control over our life and love what we see when looking in the mirror. Let's work together to live a happy and more fulfilling life. I strive to help high-functioning individuals to rediscover their inner strength to overcome their trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues. I work with clients to help them challenge the thoughts holding them back. I implement a variety of therapeutic techniques to fit the needs of the client. I also use music and guided meditations to facilitate self-understand, along with providing tools they can use at home to help deal with stress, anxiety and depression. My main focus is to empower clients to better enable them to understand what is in their control and how they can make positive changes in their life. Reaching out for help is always scary because you do not know where to start or what to expect. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back.

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.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally exhausted from constantly caring for others while neglecting their own needs. If you’re caring for an aging parent, spouse, or another loved one over the age of 18, you don’t have to carry that stress alone. My name is Clint, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving clients in Florida and Alabama. I specialize in supporting caregivers of older adults and individuals with disabilities over the age of 18 who may be struggling with burnout, anxiety, guilt, stress, or feeling emotionally drained. As a former primary caregiver for my father, I understand firsthand the emotional and practical challenges caregiving can bring. Balancing medical appointments, family responsibilities, work demands, and the emotional weight of supporting a loved one can leave little time to care for yourself. Since 2011, I’ve worked alongside caregivers and families to help reduce burnout, build healthier boundaries, improve coping skills, and create more balance in daily life. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on practical tools you can use outside of sessions. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and supportive therapy to help clients manage stress, navigate difficult emotions, and reconnect with their own well-being. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. The first session is simply an opportunity for us to talk about what’s been weighing on you and explore whether working together feels like a good fit — with no pressure or expectations. If you’re ready for support, I’d be honored to work alongside you.

Are you feeling lost, stuck, or weighed down by past trauma? Or are you and your partner caught in repetitive cycles, struggling to truly connect? I specialize in helping individuals and couples move from feeling disconnected to living with deep purpose, clarity, and security. For young adults and individuals feeling lost in life, I utilize Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combined with existential and somatic-cognitive tools. Together, we will help you rediscover who you are, clarify your core values, and define exactly what you want your life to look like. We will process past pain, release physical trauma, and foster genuine post-traumatic growth so you can build a meaningful future. For couples, I combine the Gottman Method and the Psychobiological Approach to Couple Therapy (PACT). We will work in real-time to understand your nervous system responses, break negative communication loops, and build a secure, deeply connected partnership. Whether you are navigating individual healing, identity exploration, or relationship growth, I provide a safe, actionable space to help you thrive.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Florida. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Florida from Miami to Jacksonville!

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Self Esteem, is filtering therapists in Florida that work with patients with similar concerns.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

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. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
