I also have a fun option for teens. Mindful Culinary Therapy is dedicated to making the healing power of cooking safe and accessible. At MCT, I love empowering youth to discover and harness their own creativity through food. For many of us, it is hard to open up to strangers and express serious traumatic or even simple issues that we face daily, but what happens when we keep our minds busy, our hearts open., and stomachs full? Being able to express your thoughts and emotions in a more relaxed, creative, fun, and inspiring environment, gives a person more freedom to be able to become more vulnerable, comfortable, and at peace within themselves.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist nearing 20 years’ experience, I work with a foundation of Solution Focus and Systemic Therapy. I’m often looking for "the funny" in the moment and the world around me. I greatly enjoy sarcasm, snark, and satire. I'm fairly casual but have been told I "Clean up well", and clients have told me in the past they appreciate that I do not come across as "stuffy". I'm often daydreaming of going on cruises with my wife and occasionally think about bringing our children as well. I treasure a long nap in a hammock, and I love movie. Once upon a time I even submitted a short film to the Cannes Film Festival (wasn't selected) but I did enter. Prior to being a therapist, I found myself listening and caring, as people would end up just talking to me and telling me their life story. I decided I should put that to good use. Additionally, growing up my family was fortunate to be able to adopt and quickly we became a larger family that could not remember when my sister was not part of the family. Through the process, I realized how important family and relationships. I appreciate and look forward to the chance to help others get through the rough patches, when life hits hard. When the answer is not easily found, we take time to look at all the options and find something, at least one step towards better. We're not looking for perfection, just looking for progress, a little bit here and there.

I understand the complexities of being separated from your spouse for extended periods and feeling alone in the relationship and raising the children. Even the most well-prepared and successful person can find themselves wondering how things became so complicated, messy, or challenging, and feel at a loss when it comes to what to do to put the pieces back together. People have been shaped and molded by their past experiences, both good and bad. Often, people feel drawn to focus on the bad experiences, leading to pain and struggles of many kinds.

It humbles me to be able to walk alongside people who want more for their lives. The people who want to know themselves better and live more authentically in this world. Doing new and difficult things is hard. You are not alone on this journey. Traveling these hard roads myself, it has become my life’s work to help other people overcome their wounds and reveal the truth about who they are. We will work together to understand the root cause of your struggles and address them with long-lasting strategies, helping you get closer to the life you’ve always wanted.

My name is Dr. Olushola Bakare, and I'm a board-certified Psychotherapist. I attended St Joseph College. I'm happy to help you today with any of your concerns. I enjoy empowering people and digging out their strengths. I don't ask fish to fly, neither do I ask birds to swim. I respect everyone's strengths and help my client recognize them. I love to highlight my client's strengths. I offer a safe, warm, therapeutic, judgment-free space for Adults (18+) and Older Adults (65+). I am sorry, but I do not accept clients who pay in cash. Also, every late cancellation or no-show accrues a late charge fee. It is my ethical duty to officially terminate our therapeutic relationship when it is reasonably clear that the client is no longer beneficent, services are no longer required, counseling no longer serves the client's needs and interests, or Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT limits do not allow the provision of further counseling services. It is the policy of Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, that our professional relationship will be terminated after a one-month consistent lapse of meeting with a client. Dr. Olushola Bakare, LMFT, will attempt to notify you of this change in status as soon as possible after one month. My ethical duty is identifying, being available, and caring for current clients. It could feel awkward for our relationship to end, yet it is not meant to be discourteous in any way. I do not complete disability forms (Social Security, work excuse, FMLA, Court papers/legal papers, emotional support letters, etc). NO COUPLE THERAPY OR MEDICATION MANAGEMENT, PLEASE!

Hi. I'm Gloria, LMHC in the FL State. Are you going through depression, anxiety, long-lasting effects of trauma, adjustment to new cultures, or dealing with children and adolescents with behavioral problems? Are you part of a minority facing bigotry and adaptation to the main culture; or having relational problems preventing you from having the good life you deserve? In a few words, are you a human being who is struggling to be the best that you can be? If your answer is yes to one of these questions then, you are the client I want to serve. Together we can find the tools you need to grow and enhance your strengths; yes your strengths, those that you have even if you can't recognize them. I’ll work within an array of therapeutic approaches, always in the here and now, to familiarize yourself with your mind and its work because I’m convinced that, “ Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom." Depression, anxiety, losses, adjustments, trauma these all are inexhaustible sources of pain. We all, as humans, share them so, "Maybe that's the point of humanitarianism, it's in making the effort, it's in sending the message that you actually care." I care. Feel free to contact me.

Do you feel lost? Confused about who you are? Hopeless? Feel like you're on a treadmill that never stops. Society tells us who we should be. But real joy and contentment comes from being who we really are, our most authentic selves. Real contentment also comes from having meaning, hard work, and deep relationships. My life's work is to guide and support women on a transformative journey to living your best life.

My name is Armenta Acevedo. I'm a licensed mental health counselor who is passionate about helping people navigate life's challenges. Experiencing personal transformations can bring both liberation and joy, but they can also cause upheaval and stress. Every day, we go through a series of small revolutions, realizations, adjustments, and changes that expand and contract our beings. As a mental health practitioner, my goal is to create a safe and trusting environment where individuals can release, process, unpack, and unwind. Essentially, it's a space to breathe. It's crucial to learn to show yourself kindness and compassion, even if you struggle with feeling deserving of it. Because you truly do deserve the best life has to offer! Today is the day to embrace it.

Hi, I’m Eva Chocron, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, bilingual in English and Spanish, and deeply committed to helping you heal your relationships—starting with the one you have with yourself. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and parents who feel emotionally overwhelmed, stuck in painful patterns, or disconnected from the life and love they long for. If you often feel anxious, reactive, or emotionally exhausted—especially in relationships—you’re not alone. Maybe you find yourself pleasing others at your own expense, struggling to set boundaries, or feeling misunderstood and unseen. These patterns usually have deep roots, and together, we’ll gently uncover them. Through a compassionate and culturally sensitive approach, I’ll help you make sense of your emotions, stop repeating what no longer serves you, and build the emotional clarity, confidence, and connection you deserve. This is more than therapy—it’s a journey of unlearning, healing, and becoming your most authentic self.

My goal is to help empower clients to overcome the obstacles they face in life by building on their current strengths. My passion is to is to guide clients to become aware of the self-limiting belief systems that prevent them from living happy, healthy, and balanced lives and to inspire them to make positive changes.

My focus when I work with clients struggling with addictions is to assist them to identify the underlying issues that cause them to struggle with addiction and help them to overcome these issues, while acquiring purposeful direction, motivation and the development of independence.
