Hello and Welcome! First, I want to thank you. It took a lot for you to seek a therapist in the first place. Just admitting to yourself that you're not feeling your best is difficult, but congratulations, you've made it past your first step! Asking for help can be hard for some people, so thank you for seeing something in me that makes you more comfortable taking your next step. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know that you are not alone and I will walk with you on this journey. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I grew up in a family of social workers which led me to the field. I grew up going to the nursing home my mom worked in as a geriatric social worker. Two of my mothers sisters were social workers and my great aunt was a therapist for delinquent teens. I have always had the instinct to help others and as I grew up I found that many people felt comfortable sharing things with me that they usually would say they never talked about. My amazement at the amount of traumatized people there were in my life turned into a fascination with the workings of the mind and body. My need to help others turned into a BSW, then an MSW, to an LCSW. Years went into study and licensing but still the subject does not bore me. I am excited to share what I have experienced and what I have learned while adapting the concepts to help others in the specific ways they need. We are all continuously learning and growing. I am excited to learn and grow with you as we discover how we will work best in the therapeutic environment together.

Hi, I'm Lucas, and I'm really glad you're here. The searching can get annoying, trust me, I know. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 8 years of experience in addiction and mental health, including directing an Intensive Outpatient Program. I graduated from Arizona State University with a Master's in Social Work in 2023. I'm not the "perfect expert" type. I'd rather be the person in your corner who shows up fully, celebrates your progress, and says the hard things when they need to be said. I'm warm and genuine; I bring real energy to every session, yes, even through a screen, and I practice what I teach because mental health is something we all work at. Expect me to be direct, and don't be surprised if I send you home with "homework." Growth happens in the everyday moments, not just the hour we spend together. My job is simple: help you reconnect with your strengths, build real confidence, and move toward the life you actually want. You're worth that work. Let's get started.

Perhaps you are here because you are contemplating whether to start therapy. You might be feeling that change is needed in your life and that you are ready for it. You have already taken the first step in your journey by exploring the possibility of professional guidance. By the Sea Therapy can partner with you to find the solution that you’ve been seeking. We view the beginning of therapy as a tabula rasa; a blank page where together, we write a new chapter in your life. The past may be read and understood while the future is yet to be written. We look to establish a partnership with you which will open the door to self-empowerment and fulfillment. Today, take the next step in your journey and call to start the healing process.

I have been in the mental health field since 2007. I was informed when I first started in this field that the average time for people to stay in the field is two years. I am still in the field because helping others is more than a career choice for me, it is my passion in life. Helping others is a personal goal of mine. I look forward to the opportunity. I enjoy seeing people make positive changes in their lives. I have worked with families, couples, children, adolescents and teens, from various cultures and backgrounds. Each case and each client is unique in their way and each client is important. My particular areas of expertise are depression, anxiety, substance abuse, marriage counseling and family counseling. I refer to myself as a "simple-minded therapist" which means we will explore simple ways to address the presenting concerns because many times the solutions are so simple they can be easily overlooked. I am a firm believer that holding a conversation is more productive than expounding on theoretical approaches.

Hi, I’m Brooke. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with teens, adults, and couples navigating life transitions, relationships, and personal growth. Many of my clients are high-achieving, insightful, and driven, yet at times feel stuck, disconnected, unsure of their next step, or think therapy is not for them. Others see me because their usual coping skills aren’t working anymore, and deep down, you know something has to change. I help you find relief, clarity, and peace, whether therapy is new to you or you've tried before and felt it didn’t help.

You’re a high-achieving woman who appears successful on the outside, yet internally feels overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly unfulfilled. You know how to perform, push through, and hold it all together, but patterns like perfectionism, people-pleasing, procrastination, or chronic self-doubt continue to limit your sense of ease, confidence, and fulfillment. You may have a strong career, financial stability, a home, and a life that looks “together” from the outside. Your responsibilities are handled. Your bills are paid. You show up for others. And yet, there’s a persistent sense that something is missing. No matter how much you accomplish, the relief is temporary and the internal pressure quickly returns. You tell yourself you should feel satisfied, but instead feel stuck in cycles you can’t seem to outthink or outwork. My work is designed for women like you, those who are capable, self-aware, and ready for meaningful change. Together, we move beyond surface-level coping strategies and address the deeper roots of self-sabotage. Through a highly personalized, one-on-one approach, we uncover the unconscious patterns driving these behaviors, strengthen self-trust, and build the internal safety needed to create lasting change. This is not about fixing what’s “wrong” with you. It’s about helping you feel grounded, confident, and fulfilled in a life you’ve already worked hard to build, without burning out or betraying yourself along the way.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15+ years of experience supporting individuals in their mental health journey. My work focuses primarily on helping adults navigate anxiety, depression, and life stressors. I often work with individuals experiencing burnout, major life transitions, relationship stress, work-related stress, and patterns of overthinking that can make daily life feel overwhelming. My goal is to provide a supportive, non-judgmental space where you can talk openly and begin making meaningful changes. I believe therapy should be collaborative and tailored to each person’s unique needs. Together, we will explore patterns, thoughts, and experiences that may be contributing to anxiety, stress, or low mood while also developing practical tools to help you cope more effectively. My approach is compassionate and grounded in evidence-based practices.

Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like life never "lets off the gas?" I specialize in working with adults, adolescents and children with Anxiety, ADHD, Adoption issues, Depression, Grief, Substance Use disorders, and more.

My name is Susana Mejia Vargas. I am a fully bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and my main focus is to help clients with unresolved trauma. Depending on how you are affected, trauma can cause difficulties in your daily life, such as hopelessness, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, constant irritability, and stress. I help my clients better understand the challenging aspects of traumatic events that are affecting their emotional and mental health. I will make clinical judgments about how to proceed in certain situations, but you are an expert on yourself, even if you don't feel that way.

I earned my doctorate and post-graduate master's degrees in psychology and my master's degree in counseling from the University of Hawai'i at Manoa. Professionally, I retired from the United States Air Force as a senior non-commissioned officer, and since retiring, have worked in several different behavioral health settings.

I invite individuals to engage with me and embark on your journey to joy and wellness. My multidimensional approach helps you live life free of emotional pain and find meaning in all areas of your life. I provide a safe, non-judgmental supportive space to share your concerns, ideas, and dreams. Here you can learn to really live life on the terms you choose.

Ever since my early years, I've drawn to the enigmatic depths of the human mind. The infinite complexity of our thoughts, emotions and behaviors has always fascinated me, igniting a passion for psychology that burns brighter with each passing day. It's a passion that led me to dedicate my life to this field, and it's my genuine pleasure to share my insights and experiences with you.

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.

You might look like you’re holding it all together—but inside, it feels exhausting. Maybe you overthink everything, second-guess yourself, or need reassurance just to feel okay. You say “yes” when you want to say “no,” struggle with procrastination, and feel stuck comparing yourself to others—especially on social media. Deep down, there’s a sense of not feeling “enough.” You may also be carrying chronic anxiety, navigating the emotional toll of chronic illness, grieving a loss, or going through a life transition that’s left you feeling ungrounded. These patterns often come from early experiences—childhood wounds, relational trauma, or attachment injuries. When love or validation felt uncertain growing up, it can show up in adulthood as people-pleasing, low self-worth, and difficulty in relationships. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I help adults understand and gently shift these patterns. Using a blend of inner child healing, somatic work, and practical tools, we’ll work to build self-worth, process grief, navigate anxiety and life transitions, set boundaries without guilt, and help you feel more grounded and confident in yourself. Therapy with me is supportive, collaborative, and focused on lasting change. You don’t have to do this alone.

Fulfilling our potential is a lifelong journey of becoming more at peace with ourselves, deepening the intimacy in our relationships, being more authentically human, and feeling more alive each day. Along the way, certain challenges arise to cause us distress or confusion. Such moments can make us feel held back, afraid, or unsure of where to go from here. But these moments can also be the points of growth and healing from which we renew ourselves in ways we did not think possible. It is a great privilege helping men and women in their search to improve their relationship with themselves and others, to lessen the burden of emotional pain, to experience freedom from addictions, or to embark on new life challenges - to find the hope and courage needed to take those important next steps.

Hi! My name is Shalom Adler ,and I am excited to be a part of the Grow Therapy team. We all want to live a meaningful and stress-free life, and while I cannot guarantee that you will not experience stress (we all do), I can help you navigate and cope with all that life throws at you.

I treat everyone the way I would like to be treated, with respect, compassion, dignity and empathy.

I am a qualified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC). I help clients determine whether their loved one might have a pathological condition, to understand what that means, how to avoid such relationships in the future, reduce their internal conflict, and determine whether they want to end the relationship or manage it. Often, my clients have a relationship with a person who has no diagnosable condition, yet the relationship would be considered "toxic" in that it repeatedly causes my client emotional distress. I am excited to provide perspectives and strategies to assist. I grew up in Florida and graduated from FSU with a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Social Work. I began my career in a county jail mental health unit, where I became proficient in crisis intervention, assessments, and group therapy. Since then, I have worked at an air force base, offering therapy to individuals and families, as well as a substance/mental health rehab program for the Veteran's Administration. I have also volunteered with survivors of gun violence who are grieving and/or coping with trauma. I love being a therapist!

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.

My name is JoAnn. Reach out to me when you are feeling anxiety or depression in dealing with life’s problems. I believe asking for help is a sign of strength and that sometimes people just need a boost to get them through a difficult time.

I’ve helped countless people to manage their anxiety and overcome depression without medication and able to work with individuals, couples, and children.

My name is Algelis Gonzalez, though I am commonly known as Al. My motivation to become a therapist stems from my personal journey. Growing up in a Latino culture, I developed a curiosity about people both within my community and beyond. This curiosity has driven me to understand the reasons behind our behaviors, both positive and negative. Throughout my career as a therapist, I continue to learn and grow, drawing from the vast knowledge available in the field. I am deeply committed to helping my clients embrace their true selves, regardless of their personality traits—whether they are humorous, quiet and shy, hesitant to trust, or feeling frustrated with the world. I believe that everyone is welcome in my practice. Recognizing that none of us are perfect and that we are all striving to make sense of life’s complexities, I focus on exploring my clients’ experiences with respect and understanding. My goal is to facilitate their growth in ways they may not have previously thought possible.
