Welcome, I'm glad you're here! While I am relatively new to the Grow Therapy platform, I am a seasoned counselor with over 20 years of experience. I am a Licensed Mental Health counselor in the state of Florida and I am also a Certified Rehabilitation counselor. I have a masters degree in Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Florida. I have specialized training and experience working with people who have disabilities such as medical/health, psychological, learning, physical, and sensory diagnoses. Taking the first step toward counseling can feel overwhelming, but it is also the beginning of building momentum for change. In my work with clients, I focus on creating a supportive and collaborative space where your experiences are heard and valued. Together, we’ll explore your challenges and strengths, using evidence-based approaches to transform insight into action. I believe that even small steps forward can create meaningful momentum, helping you move towards resilience, healing, and growth. My goal is to walk alongside you as you build the confidence and tools needed for lasting change. I offer virtual counseling to anywhere in Florida and offer flexible appointment times including evenings and weekends.

If the adolescent's parents are separated or share legal guardianship, it is essential that the other parent or legal guardian provide consent to therapy before beginning. **Furthermore, services provided are strictly therapeutic in nature for adults and adolescents and I do not participate in legal proceedings nor do I provide forensic services, evaluations, expert opinions, testimony, affidavits, or written documentation for use in legal matters or for court use.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I've had the privilege of working with individuals in diverse mental health settings, from emergency departments and psychiatric facilities to private practices. This experience has given me a deep understanding of the challenges people face, and I'm truly passionate about helping them find healing and growth. I'm also EMDR trained, which means I have specialized training in helping people process and heal from trauma. I often work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, and overall life goals. My biggest goal is to create a warm, supportive, and safe space for you. I strive to be a compassionate, authentic, and respectful guide, walking alongside you on your journey. You can expect a judgment-free environment where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to explore what's most important to you.

Some things stay with us long after they happen. They show up as being on edge for no clear reason, shutting down, or reacting harder than the moment calls for. If talk therapy alone hasn't been enough, EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) work with the nervous system directly, and they don't require you to retell every detail. You set the pace. My job is to keep the work steady, structured, and safe. Michael Blake Edwards, MS, NCC, LMHC-QS, CCTP, ADHD-CCSP. 14+ years of experience across community mental health, inpatient rehabilitation, and trauma recovery. Trained in EMDR and ART, mindfulness-based approaches, and CBT, with Harvard Medical School Executive Education in Lifestyle and Wellness Coaching.

I’m a licensed therapist who strives to see families and parents learn new ways, techniques and strategies on how to cope with real life changes and see individuals learn about themselves and begin to process life challenges. I enjoy the traditional Florida lifestyle of exploring nature, the springs, the beaches and all the hiking trails and state parks Florida offers.

I have an eclectic approach and believe that you are your own expert who needs evidence-based tools. I will walk through deep waters with you, promising to provide a judgment-free zone. I have a background in family systems, child development and couples therapy. This background supports individual therapy as many people present to therapy with relational issues. I am so glad you are here!

Greetings! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida. I received my Masters from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology and have been practicing for three years, after having worked in the public school system for over 20 years. For the past three years, I have been working with children and families, but also specialize in working with all populations with a vast array of concerns.

Life can feel overwhelming when you’re trying to manage your emotions, relationships, work, family expectations, and everything else at the same time. You may look like you have it all together on the outside while internally feeling anxious, exhausted, disconnected, or unsure of what comes next. I’m Yilian Herrera, a licensed mental health professional who provides a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you can slow down, understand what you’re experiencing, and begin making meaningful changes. I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD-related challenges, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship concerns, low self-worth, burnout, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy working with people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or like they have spent a long time putting everyone else’s needs before their own.

Welcome! I’m Eduardo W. Gonzalez, LMHC, with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and have a passion for helping adults and kids overcome anxiety and depression, behavioral problems as ADHD, defiance and anger. My approach is personalized and rooted in the latest research, designed to help you gain the tools and confidence to face life’s challenges. When you visit me, we'll develop a personalized plan just for you. Together we'll write down what you want to achieve, how we'll accomplish that, and just how long it will take to get there. Don't wait any longer! Call today and let's do it.

When your child or teen is struggling, it can leave you feeling worried, overwhelmed, and unsure of what will actually help. Challenges like school stress, ADHD, family changes, or past experiences can show up in big emotions and behavior that feels hard to manage. I work with children, adolescents, and parents to help make sense of what’s happening and create more calm, confidence, and connection.

You may be the person everyone else depends on. You're capable, responsible, and high-functioning. From the outside, it may seem like you're managing everything well—but internally, you're overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, constantly overthinking, or wondering why life feels so much harder than it "should." Many of my clients are women who have spent years taking care of everyone else while slowly losing connection with themselves. They may be balancing demanding careers, motherhood, caregiving, relationships, or major life transitions while quietly carrying anxiety, burnout, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or self-doubt. I specialize in helping women navigate anxiety, stress, burnout, ADHD, relationship challenges, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, depression, and chronic overwhelm. I also enjoy working with individuals adjusting to chronic illness, caregiver stress, and significant changes that affect their sense of identity. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I believe lasting change happens when we understand not only what we're experiencing, but why certain patterns developed in the first place. Together, we'll identify what's keeping you stuck, develop insight into those patterns, and build realistic strategies that help you create meaningful change outside of therapy—not just during our sessions. I know reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you're used to being the one others rely on. My goal is to provide a space where you don't have to have everything figured out—a place where you can feel understood, challenged when appropriate, and supported as you reconnect with yourself and build the life you truly want.

Hello, my name is Sunshine Wilder and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. In 2004, I graduated with a Master’s degree in Social Work and have been working for the past 22 years with children, teens, and adults in various settings such as child welfare, specialized therapeutic foster care, and outpatient therapy. I have experience working with individuals with a wide range of needs such as stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger management, depression, ADHD, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), attachment issues, and Bipolar Disorder.

Hi, I'm Susan Sabogal, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor providing therapy in English and Spanish. I work with adults who are tired of carrying everyone else's expectations, second-guessing themselves, and feeling guilty for having needs of their own. My style is warm, practical, and straightforward. I'm not interested in spending months talking about problems without helping you move forward. Together, we'll connect the dots between your past experiences, current challenges, and the patterns that may be keeping you stuck. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, build confidence in your decisions, develop healthier boundaries, and create meaningful change that lasts.

Hi, I’m Katie, and I’m so glad you’re here! I believe you’re the greatest project you’ll ever work on. I work with individuals ages 11 through adulthood. I graduated from the University of West Florida with a Master’s in Social Work in 2014. Most of my experience is with clients navigating anxiety, depression, family conflict, trauma, and ADHD-related executive functioning challenges. My goal is to create a space where you feel supported, understood, and equipped with practical tools for meaningful change. Every person has the ability to heal, grow, and make positive change.

Psychotherapy provides a supportive and nonjudgmental space to explore life’s challenges, emotions, and transitions. My goal is to create a safe environment where you feel understood and empowered as we work together to identify your strengths, deepen your self-awareness, and develop effective coping skills. Through this process, we’ll focus on personal growth, resilience, and the tools needed to navigate change with confidence. I was born in Brazil and have also lived in Switzerland, Ecuador, and now the United States. These experiences have shaped my worldview and help me bring a multicultural and compassionate perspective to my work. Given my background, I’m fluent in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, and value creating meaningful connections with clients from all backgrounds. Outside of my practice, I’m passionate about exploring cultures through travel. I’ve had the opportunity to visit over 35 countries so far. I also enjoy discovering new foods, exercise and spending sunny weekends outdoors in Florida. As a therapist, I’m known for being empathetic, authentic, and attuned to my clients’ needs. I believe everyone possesses inner strengths and resources that, when nurtured, can help overcome challenges and foster meaningful, lasting change.

🌿 My Approach to Counseling Forty-four years ago, I was trained as a Holistic Social Worker, and since then I’ve had the privilege of working across the Americas — with people of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures. Over the decades, I’ve learned that healing looks different for everyone, and that true change happens when we feel safe, respected, and understood. My counseling approach is person-centered, meaning that you are the expert on your own life. My role is to support and strengthen your natural motivation to change. There are many healing traditions in the world, and I will always honor you and your choices as we find what works best for your journey. I combine cognitive (thought-based) and somatic (body-based) techniques to help you bridge the mind–body connection. My specialty is working with stress and trauma, helping you understand how your nervous system responds and what it needs to return to balance. It’s important to remember: trauma lives in the nervous system — not in the event itself. When your system becomes dysregulated, symptoms arise because the residual energy from those experiences hasn’t been released. If your system is stuck on “High”, you may feel rage, hyperactivity, anxiety, panic, or find yourself engaging in high-risk behaviors. If your system is stuck on “Low”, you may experience depression, exhaustion, numbness, disconnection, or hopelessness. Together, we’ll gently guide your nervous system toward discharge and regulation, helping your body and mind restore calm, clarity, and connection. I offer a free 15-minute consultation so we can connect, answer your questions, and see if working together feels like the right fit.

I work extensively with people to assist them with improving relationships, work to improve management of anxiety, anger management while improving self-confidence, and self-esteem. I also work with depressive-based symptoms and teach coping and improved thought processes to create a lifelong change to your ability to meet your needs. Together, we will identify what's not working and get you back to a baseline that works for you. I work holistically, my therapy provides tools to support needs within yourself, your relationships, and your family dynamic. If you're dealing with overwhelming emotions and feelings, hurtful relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. I also have many years experience working with people with Autism as well as all Applied Behavioral modalities. When a person is seeking therapy, this is a huge leap of faith towards asking for help that I deeply respect and admire. I will provide a non-judgmental, compassionate space for you to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I will always meet you “where you are” and provide strength-based solutions through evidence-based techniques so you can overcome and move forward in your life. Let's get started!

You're exhausted, wondering if anyone is going to reach your teenage son with ADHD. I was that kid and found my way through. Your son is struggling the same way I did. ADHD, too much homework, too little interest, too many people telling him to just try harder. I didn't get real support until the end of high school. Treatment changed the trajectory of my life. I went from community college to the University of Florida, then to a Master of Social Work from Florida State. My bachelor's was in Education Sciences with a specialization in Educational Psychology, which means I understand how ADHD plays out in a classroom, where so much of your son's pain probably lives. School is hard enough for these kids already, which is why I see clients in the evenings and on weekends. Therapy shouldn't add to what school is already taking from him.

***Exciting news! I am now offering in-person appointments at Kissimmee Lakefront every Thursday! Please contact me directly to schedule your appointment!*** As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor my primary objective is assisting individuals in overcoming the challenges and obstacles that interfere with their being the best version of themselves. I do this by engaging them in therapeutic dialogue, helping them establish personal goals for success, and encouraging their progress. I enjoy working with highly motivated adults and young people who are actively engaged in working toward their personal goals. With over 25 years of experience working with adults, teens and children, I have successfully assisted individuals with a variety of issues including ADHD, anxiety, and depression. I am passionate about working with people who are experiencing significant life change meet challenges and exceed their expectations. This is why I have primarily focused on working with young people as they are actively engaged in developing their individual identity and personal values. We all continue to face change as we move through life and there is capacity for growth in us all. I would be happy to work with you to make meaningful change and growth in your life.

I’m Terrissa Bryan, LMHC, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than a decade of experience helping youth, adults, and their families break through trauma, anxiety, ADHD, anger, and the patterns that keep them stuck. My work is grounded in trauma‑informed, evidence‑based care and practices, with a focus on collaborative treatment planning, cultural responsiveness, and strengthening the client’s capacity to regulate emotions, manage unhealthy behaviors. My goal is to empower clients to trust their inner voice, build confidence in their own abilities, and develop practical skills that support long‑term resilience. I believe every person has the capacity to heal and grow—and my role is to help you access that strength, clarify your path, and move forward with greater balance and self‑awareness. If you’re ready to step into your own power, strengthen your voice, and create meaningful change, I’m here to guide you with clarity, compassion, and clinical expertise.

Hi, I’m Trish. Life can feel really heavy at times. Whether it’s stress from work, changes in relationships, past experiences that still affect you, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I know how hard it can be to reach out for help. As someone who has utilized therapy myself, I understand how vulnerable it can feel to sit across from someone and share the parts of your life that may feel messy, complicated, or difficult to explain. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as your whole self, without judgment or the pressure to have it all figured out. I’m an open, compassionate, and neurodivergent-affirming therapist who believes therapy should feel human. I’ll listen, support you, and offer tools and new perspectives, while also gently challenging you when it can help you move toward your goals. We’ll work at a pace that feels manageable and meaningful for you. And while healing can involve some difficult conversations, I don’t believe therapy has to feel heavy all the time. I like to have fun, laugh, and make room for the lighter moments along the way. Mental wellness and healing are journeys, and I want you to have someone beside you who can hold space for the hard stuff while reminding you that there is still room for joy. My role is to walk alongside you as you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, navigate life’s challenges, and find your way back to feeling more like you.

Hi, I'm Julia, and I believe therapy should be a space where you feel genuinely seen, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change in your life. I specialize in working with teens, young adults, and women who are navigating anxiety, self-doubt, relationship challenges, and difficult life experiences. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed by overthinking, people-pleasing, low self-confidence, or the pressure of trying to meet other's expectations while neglecting their own needs. I help those who are struggling during life transitions, build confidence, and develop a stronger sense of self. I also work with women who find themselves caught in patterns of people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or feeling responsible for other's emotions. Together, we work to create healthier relationships, increase self-worth, and build a life that feels more authentic and fulfilling. For teens experiencing anxiety, depression, identity concerns, or social struggles, I provide a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where they can explore their emotions, develop coping skills, and build confidence. I'm trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), an approach that helps individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. Whether you're carrying effects of childhood trauma, painful relationships, or difficult life events, EMDR can help reduce the emotional impact of those experiences and support healing. I work with individuals who experience communication difficulties, conflict, trust issues, or relationship stress. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves and others while developing healthier ways of communicating and connecting. My approach is warm, collaborative, and person-centered. I integrate EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and other evidence-based approaches to meet your unique needs and goals. Taking the first step toward therapy can feel intimidating, but you don't have to navigate life's challenges alone. I look forward to supporting you on through healing, self-discovery, and meaningful change.

Life can be challenging! Whether you are struggling with stress and worry, trying to break free from toxic relationships or habits, or just looking to nurture and care for yourself, let’s take on this journey together! I have over 15 years of experience in the mental health field working in various settings with various populations, including those struggling with severe and persistent mental health issues. My vast experience has created a solid foundation in helping individuals with the unique struggles they may face. I utilize a strength based approach while integrating various modalities to individualize care as not one story is the same. My extensive experience working with interdisciplinary teams has also expanded my knowledge and familiarity with various resources and interventions that can also support the therapeutic process. By utilizing a warm and compassionate yet direct approach, my hope is to empower and guide you in finding the key to unlock the passage to freedom within your own mind. I am confident that with the power of our therapeutic relationship, trust, and vulnerability, we can get there together.

Having 20 + years of experience in the counseling field, I enjoy helping people improve marriage and family relationships, and I am passionate about working alongside individuals to overcome anxiety, depression, ADHD, and sexual addiction. Often, this can happen in a short-term time frame. I work with individuals to overcome everyday and complex challenges. From a therapeutic perspective, I bring in both Christian principles and psychology into my practice and help identify personal strengths and solutions for creating treatment goals.

Hi, I'm Jenness Jones, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and founder of Grace and Mercy Counseling, LLC. I am passionate about helping adolescents and adults navigate life's challenges with compassion, understanding, and practical support. My practice provides a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can work through concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and stress while developing the tools needed for healing, growth, and lasting change. At Grace and Mercy Counseling, I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to be heard, supported, and empowered. My goal is to help clients recognize their strengths, build resilience, and move toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Do you feel lost? Endless anxiety? 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 purpose, hard work, and connection. My life's work is to guide and support those seeking a transformative journey to living your best life.

I help adults struggling with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, burnout, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem. My approach is practical, structured, and collaborative. I combine evidence-based trauma therapies with clear goals to help clients develop effective coping skills, process difficult experiences, recognize patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and create meaningful change. Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than two decades in competitive corporate environments where long hours, high expectations, and constant pressure were the norm. After earning an MBA from George Washington University and completing postgraduate work at Emory University, I experienced firsthand how chronic stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, and unresolved personal issues can affect both professional success and life outside of work. This background helps me connect naturally with professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, and others navigating demanding careers, while my practice serves all adults from many different backgrounds. Over the past eight years, I have provided psychotherapy in psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment programs, specialized treatment settings, court-supervised programs, and private practice. Much of my clinical work has focused on trauma recovery, emotional regulation, healthier coping strategies, recovery, relationships, identity exploration and personal growth. Whether you are carrying unresolved trauma, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or stress, navigating a difficult relationship or transition, or questioning what comes next, therapy should do more than help you understand why you feel stuck. My goal is to create a safe, direct, and supportive environment where we can turn insight into action, address what is getting in the way, and build practical strategies for moving toward the life you want to create.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who obtained my degree from Marywood University’s Graduate School of Social Work. I completed my undergraduate education at Cedar Crest College, with dual majors in Psychology and Sociology. I have provided counseling in many settings including the geriatric, non-profit and healthcare fields, for over 18 years. I also hold post-graduate certificates in Gerontology, and Palliative/End of Life Care. I am pursuing my doctorate in social work in a program through Kutztown University. I believe in building a solid therapeutic relationship based on trust, empathy and respect using a variety of techniques, and building from a strengths-based perspective to help foster understanding, coping and change. My eclectic therapeutic techniques often include CBT, transformational and psychodynamic approaches, individualized in relation to each client’s need and provided through a trauma informed lens. I am experienced in individual, family, and group counseling. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. My hope is to provide a safe, nonjudgemental environment for you to discover yourself and to start on the road to healing. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you! Best, Christina

*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 prescribe to a Cognitive behavioral approach which helps others see life's problems and solutions in a better light. I work with individuals ages 5-100, families, adolescents, marriage or relationship counseling, premarital counseling, and parents who need some guidance raising their children. Some areas of expertise include depression, anxiety, bipolar, problem solving, relationship specialist, communication skills, anger management, coping skills, relaxation exercises, and panic attacks.

Hi my name is Amy, and I first want to acknowledge how difficult and scary it feels to begin the process of therapy, either for the first time or starting with a new therapist. I take very seriously the enormous strength that takes and I work very hard to ensure that you feel safe and heard as we begin the therapeutic relationship. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 15 years of experience providing counseling in both inpatient and outpatient centers. I received my Master’s degree in counseling in 2008, from Webster University. I had the privilege of working in an inpatient eating disorder facility for five years and have continued that work in outpatient settings. I am an ally to the LGBTQ community and it is important to me that clients find this a safe space. I have a passion for connecting with teenagers, college students and career women to build a safe place with an adult where they can voice their feelings and experiences without fear of judgement. I also especially enjoy working with young adult women as they navigate their way through the process of beginning adulthood. I have experience with a variety of issues, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and general women’s issue. I am especially passionate about working with CPTSD and PTSD. I have received training and supervision in working with trauma as it is a highly specialized field. Trauma survivors need validation, belief, compassion and acceptance first and foremost before a trusting relationship can be established. I have working with women exiting a toxic relationship, having endured narcissistic abuse and/or infidelity (betrayal trauma) which is many times misunderstood by well-intentioned people. My approach is warm, compassionate and highly empathetic as I work to establish a safe environment for healing to take place.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or navigating a difficult stage in life or relationships, you’re not alone. I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) therapist who works with adolescents, adults, parents, and families who are looking for clarity, emotional balance, and stronger connections. I offer a warm, supportive space where you can feel heard and understood while we work together to explore your experiences and move toward meaningful change. My approach is collaborative and focused on helping you better understand yourself, strengthen your relationships, and navigate life transitions with more confidence and clarity.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I was inspired to become a therapist after growing up in a family that experienced mental illness and trauma. I would like to help those in need thrive and become the best versions of themselves. I have been practicing therapy for over 3 years with a those with a variety of needs.

I am a therapist who has helped individuals develop positive coping skills to overcome barriers that have kept them from reaching their goals in life. Those who come to my practice have felt welcomed and accepted in a non-judgmental environment. I often hear from my clients, (especially from men) that they wished that they had not postponed treatment after starting services with me. By actively listening to your concerns, worries, and issues that keeping you from your goals, you and I will get to work on overcoming those barriers.

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck in your head, or frustrated by patterns you understand but can't seem to change? I work with teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD and neurodivergence, trauma, major life transitions, relationship stress, and the emotional impact of medical concerns. My style is warm, down-to-earth, straightforward, and collaborative, with humor when it fits. I have 15 years of experience as a therapist, including 10 years working in a neuropsychology-focused setting. Together, we'll make sense of what you're experiencing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and build practical strategies that fit your life and your goals.

I believe therapy is most effective when clients feel heard, respected, and supported. I work primarily with adults and specialize in health psychology, using a biopsychosocial perspective to understand the connection between physical health, emotions, and daily life. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and mindfulness-based approaches, I provide compassionate, patient-centered care in a collaborative and nonjudgmental environment where clients can build resilience and create meaningful lasting change.

I have been in practice for over 10 years in various different settings and with different populations. I will meet you where you are and help you move to where you want to be. You are the expert of you and I am here to guide. There is no ideal client-I encourage honesty and continuous learning. I am currently working towards my doctorate.

Hi, I’m Lauryn-Maggie! I’m a solution-oriented therapist who believes healing can be challenging without always having to feel heavy. So much of therapy involves unlearning patterns we didn’t necessarily create ourselves; from generational cycles to attachment and relationship patterns (just to name a few). I’ll make space for the hard stuff while also helping you understand the “why,” find practical ways forward, and hopefully laugh a little along the way. I am not just talking about change, we’re working toward it together.

Hello, I'm Allison. I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist who has been in private practice since 2018. I previously worked in dual diagnosis treatment centers for addiction/ mental health for seven years. I help individuals, couples and families improve communication, rebuild connection, and navigate life’s challenges with greater clarity and confidence. Many times clients who contact me have no experience in therapy, but just know that their life is not satisfying or something is off. That's enough by the way! Anything and everything can be discussed in therapy. I have frequently been told I'm easy to open up to, and clients often feel relieved that I am more directive than a therapist who listens without guidance. I enjoy cheering on my clients' wins, but also being there for the hard moments, and genuinely love what I do. Finding relief and reconnecting with a sense of peace is more achievable than it might feel right now—and once you start, the process of change often unfolds more quickly than you expect. If you'd like to learn more about me and my therapy methods, feel free to visit my website at www.mindtalkhealing.com

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my profile. Do you ever feel stuck, hopeless, or weighed down by past experiences that still cause pain? Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, burnout, or feelings of not being “good enough”? You don’t have to carry these challenges alone. In therapy, my role is to walk alongside you—helping you process difficult experiences, explore new perspectives, strengthen your inner resources, and build healthier boundaries. Together, we can work toward both your short-term relief and your long-term growth. I have over 10 years of clinical experience, supporting individuals through trauma, depression, anxiety, addictions, anger management, self-worth challenges, parenting struggles, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to your needs. I primarily use person-centered, cognitive-behavioral, and dialectical-behavioral therapies, and I also integrate EMDR for trauma, anxiety, and phobias. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to create positive changes in your life.

Hi there! I’m so glad that we found each other! My name is Lisa Rubenstein and 2024 is my 27th year in the behavioral health field providing therapeutic services for children and adults of all ages and their families. I am a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), and a Certified Florida Professional School Counselor (PSC: PreK-12th). My lifelong passion has been committed to helping others. If you are here, you have made the courageous decision to seek help on your healing journey! Ultimately, our goal is positive change, personal growth, empowerment, resilience, symptom management, and happiness all leading to a more stable and content life…WELCOME!

I believe that healing begins in a relationship where you feel seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and collaborative space where you can explore life's challenges with honesty and curiosity. My role is not to tell you who to be or what decisions to make. Instead, I serve as a compassionate guide, helping you better understand yourself, recognize patterns that may no longer serve you, and discover strengths you may not yet see in yourself. I believe that every person has the capacity for growth, healing, and meaningful change. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I understand that our early experiences shape how we view ourselves, connect with others, and respond to life's challenges. Together, we'll explore those experiences with compassion, helping you rewrite unhelpful narratives and build healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. I bring warmth, empathy, curiosity, and gentle honesty to each session, creating an environment where you can be your full, authentic self. While I offer support and validation, I also encourage reflection and meaningful action so that lasting change can take place. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, healing from past wounds, strengthening relationships, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you every step of the way. My goal is to help you cultivate resilience, self-compassion, and confidence so you can create a life that feels aligned with your values and authentic sense of self. I believe therapy is not about fixing what is "wrong" with you—it's about uncovering your strengths, fostering emotional healing, and empowering you to move forward with greater clarity, purpose, and peace.

I am a licensed mental health client in the state of Florida. I have worked with an array of mental health conditions in many different settings. I have now been in private practice for 8 years and find true joy in providing my clients with a safe space in order to work towards meeting their own goals, whatever those might be. I also enjoy working with couples as well as providing parent skills to parents in all different stages of parenting.

Welcome! I'm Dr. Maribel Nadal, a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Therapist with over 20 years of experience. I specialize in working with individuals, and families dealing with relationship issues, depression, anxiety, ADHD, career issues and life transitions. I am very passionate about providing my clients with a space that is supportive, confidential and non judgmental. I look forward to working with you.

Hi! I am Luis Gonzales, a licensed mental health counselor and certified rehabilitation counselor working out of the Tampa area. Having gone through a tragic life altering experience at a young age, I know what it’s like to feel lost and hopeless about the future. When I was 21 I suffered a spinal cord injury that left me paralyzed and wheelchair-bound. Through my journey of recovery I learned firsthand, just how much our thoughts and emotions can become our biggest obstacles in life.

With over 30 years of experience in the mental health field, I bring a deep understanding of the therapeutic process and a strong commitment to helping individuals thrive. I have served in a wide range of clinical and leadership roles-therapist, clinical supervisor, clinical director, and adjunct professor-and have worked in diverse settings such as group homes, outpatient clinics, mental health centers, schools, and most recently, private practice. Licensed as an LPC in Colorado and an LMHC in Florida, I am committed to providing effective, compassionate care that is both present-focused and future-oriented—helping you move forward with clarity, confidence, and hope.

I have been a therapist for over twenty years. It is an honor to support clients to achieve their goals for joy, peace, and understanding. I enjoy watching clients "find themselves" again after a period of performing on autopilot. Whatever your goals are, I believe that with the right support you will be successful. I am here to listen and to support you as you explore where you are and where you would like to go.
