Hi, I'm Courtney! Congratulations on having the strength and courage in taking the first step on your journey to living your best life. The hardest part of therapy is being brave enough to seek out professional help, which you are doing right now! Like myself and many of my clients, you have tried everything you can think of to mend your issues and up until now, you have not found a successful solution. I am here to tell you that you have come to the right place. I know how intimidating and scary it can be to seek out professional help, I have been where you are right now. I remember thinking that I was probably wasting my time by talking to a complete stranger but feeling like I had to give it a chance because every day that passed by, I felt more less in control of my own life. I am happy to share with you that seeking therapy was the best decision I ever made and I hope by the end of our journey, you feel the same way too!

Hi there, my name is Kristen and I am a licensed mental health counselor in the state of FL. Do you lack direction in your life? Feel like you have an internal battle of anxiety in your mind? Struggle with feelings of sadness or lack of motivation? Everyone's struggles look a little different, which is why my goal as a therapist is to customize the treatment to fit YOUR specific needs. As a counselor, I act as a guide to help my clients on their journey toward growth and a better future. I encourage my clients to come up with positive coping skills and improve their daily routines as we work together to accomplish their treatment goals. I have several years of experience working with clients who struggle with addiction to alcohol, drugs, and sex. While I specialize in addictions I enjoy helping individuals who struggle with anxiety, depression, codependency, attachment issues, and bipolar disorder. As an intern, I lead group sessions in a treatment facility and also worked with teenagers in a local high school. Once I became licensed I started to focus on building my private practice. I currently work in Maitland FL seeing clients in person and on telehealth platforms.

I have over 15 years of experience working in mental health with diverse populations and demographics ranging from community mental health to private practice. I have a desire to innovate how mental health is perceived and facilitate treatment. My approach emphasizes the mutual development of goals for therapy and the provision of ongoing evaluation of the therapeutic process. I seek to create an integrative, dynamic, and holistic approach to treating mental health through evidence-based practice and techniques. FACTS: 1 in 5 U.S. adults and 1 in 6, aged 6-17, experience mental health each year (NAMI 2020) You are not alone. Help is available! Don't let depression or anxiety get in the way of becoming something more. Let me help you overcome the obstacles getting the way of living your best life.

Make your mental health a priority today. "PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING: Ms. Gonzalez limits the services provided to you to those that are clinical in nature. Any requests for additional administrative services like disability certification and special accommodations (such as Emotional Support Animals letters) related to a psychological condition will have to be provided by another mental health provider. Short-term disability certification by Ms. Gonzalez will be limited to a period of time not to exceed 4 weeks, at which time those determinations will also have to be made by another mental health provider. The reason for this policy is to avoid having the performance of administrative functions interfere with your therapy."

Hi, I am a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on identity transformation! I work with those who feel the achievements are there, yet still feels misaligned in what you do versus who you truly are. This identity crisis shows up in subtle ways - the anxiety that greets you before meetings, the exhaustion from maintaining the "strong Black woman" image, the longing for relationships where you can finally be real. I want you to know that transformation is possible. That having more alignment and authenticity in the way you show up is possible. In our work together, we'll move beyond just understanding why you code-switch or people-please and help your system find its way back to your truth using Internal Family Systems therapy. Imagine walking into any room fully grounded in who you are. Picture making decisions from your core self, not from old wounds. It's time to transform your relationship with yourself - to heal those outdated identities and create a life that truly feels like yours.

Do you feel like you are the caretaker? The hero? The rescuer? Do you have to be the strong one? The one who everyone turns to, but has no one to turn to themselves? Do you witness the unimaginable and have to “carry on” to save the next life? You are not alone. I help clients learn how to live with their experiences, set and hold appropriate boundaries, build healthy relationships, gain stability, and learn skills to manage their emotions in a healthy way. I provide a safe and supportive place for those who feel they can’t talk about their experiences because no one else can understand. I am experienced in working with clients from all walks of life. I have worked with anxiety, depression, chronic job-related trauma, substance use, and adjustment and phase of life issues. I believe in integrative techniques to connect mind, body, and spirit and improve overall well-being.

Sometimes people experience emotional problems (e.g., anxiety, depression), behavioral problems (e.g., overeating, smoking), or relationship problems (e.g., excessive arguing, poor communication) that interfere with their daily functioning. These difficulties result from the interaction of biological, learning, behavioral, and environmental factors, which influence patterns of thinking and behaving. Negative life events can contribute to the development of self-defeating patterns of thinking and behaving, which some people can have difficulty changing. In my work, which I have been practicing for 42 years, I help people identify these self-defeating patterns and develop strategies for dealing with them. I emphasize the importance of practicing these strategies consistently, with the goal of handling emotions more effectively and behaving in more responsible and healthy ways. I focus on life pattern changes with respect to relationships, depression, anxiety, anger control, impulse control, and stress management.

Howdy y'all! I’m Kendra, your friendly Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over five years of experience dedicated to helping people navigate life's challenges. Holding a degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Social Work from Florida State University, I’ve had the privilege of supporting the vibrant people of Florida. I'm a therapist who believes healing doesn't have to be stiff, serious, or done on a strict timeline. Sometimes, it looks like rolling in on two wheels to make it "just on time," venting about your day, and finally saying outloud "I'm really just tired of holding it all together." I work with adults who are overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out and being "fine" all the time just isn't working anymore. Whether you're navigating the mental load of motherhood, trying to find yourself again after a major life shift, or stuck in that loop of overthinking and self-doubt, I'm here to help you slow down, breathe, and feel human again. My style is warm, laid-back, and trauma-informed meaning, we go at your pace - no pressure, no judgment. I offer a supportive space where you don't have to have it all figured out; you just bring your whole, real self to therapy (messy feelings, messy bun, and all) and I'll bring curiosity, compassion, and a few solid tools to help you feel more grounded.

Kindly note: At this time, my practice is focused on supporting parents and families with children ages 6 and under. I am currently accepting new clients for daytime appointments only, between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM. Hi there—I’m Stephanie, a mental health counselor who specializes in the early stages of parenthood (a.k.a. the “sleep-deprived, overstimulated, and constantly Googling something” years). Whether you're feeling burnt out, short-fused (been there!), or your young child is having big feelings or baffling behaviors, therapy can help you find steadier ground where you feel seen, supported, and better equipped to meet the challenges of early parenthood—without losing yourself in the process. In our work together, I support caregivers and families using a flexible, compassionate approach. That might include individual therapy for you, joint parent-child sessions, or a combination of both. If you're carrying heavy feelings—like guilt, shame, self-doubt or even unexpected rage—you're not alone, and you're not broken. Therapy can offer relief, clarity, and practical tools to support both you and your child.
