Welcome to JBG Therapy (Just Breathe & Grow) My name is Jayleene, and I look forward to being able to assist you in your therapeutic journey. Sometimes it is hard to keep our mind quiet, to focus on the bigger picture, or to embrace change. Hard to be able to control random nervous episodes that are difficult to understand what is triggering you; even the moments of low motivation, procrastination, or not having the energy to get out of bed. Have you ever experienced any of these? It is possibly linked to Anxiety and depression which are very common in our society, but they do not have to control us. I specialize in helping individuals like you that are experiencing these symptoms as well as any life struggle big or small. To explore your emotions deeper, to embrace our flaws, and to love ourselves unapologetically. I find that lack of emotional understanding is considered the main reason why a lot of us find it hard to break generational cycles, or even seek therapy to begin with. As a Latinx individual, I know the deep-rooted stigmas that come with mental health and how difficult it can be to take the first step in taking control of ourselves. Not only will I try to understand you, but I also try my best to get you to understand yourself by exploring your feelings, looking at different perspectives, providing you with education, finding various ways to cope with your symptoms, and offering you a unique therapeutic experience. If this sounds like something you are willing to do let me be the first to say Welcome to your new healing journey!

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy empowers clients to own their abilities in solving life’s problems and recognize their strengths.

In my younger years I traveled and worked in many states in a corporate yet still helping role as a business analyst and functioned as a project manager too in South Africa Johannesburg. I am licensed in the state of Massachusetts and Florida. I attended a Christian college for my undergraduate degree at Eastern Nazarene a college affiliated through the church of the Nazarene. The social work department at the college mirrored and was taught social work through a Christian perspective and philosophies taken from the stories of the bible. I completed my graduate degree at Simmons School of Social Work in Boston Massachusetts, getting an MSW, and an Urban Leadership certificate. I have been licensed and doing psychotherapy since 2013. My last job before doing psychotherapy full time was working in an emergency room alongside psychiatric residents doing crisis evaluations, advocating for all populations to get them the proper level of care needed.

Great to meet you! Are you often questioning yourself? Wondering how to navigate your relationships and where to go in your career? Do you struggle with social, spiritual or interpersonal conflict? Do you find that your difficulty with managing stress is impeding on your ability to be successful or functional? These questions are very common; the solutions, however, are often uncommon, but instead may feel complicated. Fortunately, addressing these questions do not have to remain a mystery.

A Big Hello to you. You are scanning all these profiles. Looking for something to stand out to make you say,"I will go with this one." It is daunting but you have made it this far. Here is the tip. Your choice is not terminal. It is absolutely ok to try multiple therapists to see who gets you the best. Who understands you the best. After each session, you should feel lighter. You may not recall all that was said, but you will note how you feel. Did you feel heard? Understood? Did the therapist talk to me like they were reading a book or did it sound like they really got me? When you get the right one, those questions will be answered with a firm, Yes. ---->Part of individual therapy is talking about friends, partners and loved ones. My training and focus are centered only on heterosexual relationship dynamics. If you are looking for letters for work, ESA, Social Security, FMLA, Family Court, you will need a psychological evaluation by a forensic psychologist. I am not able to perform assessments, letters for claims or provide appearances in court.

Every client is unique and is facing their own distinctive challenges. Therefore each treatment plan should be personalized and individualized. An ideal client is one who comes to counseling with an open mind and is ready to try new approaches and coping skills. Each person will benefit differently from a wide variety of approaches. Together we can and will find the right strategies that work best for you. There is not a "normal" or "standard" cookie-cutter path. It is a journey! I have experience working with issues as grief, anxiety, anger, mood, neurological, trauma, relationship issues, substance use disorders, and more. I am dually independently licensed and passionate about providing the utmost quality of services to people struggling with mental health, substance use disorders and dual diagnoses. I have over 10 years of practice, including a wide array of experience, working with clients of all age groups individually, with couples and in groups. The therapeutic environment is a safe place for clients and their families to experience their vulnerabilities while sharing their stories. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential, EMDR, and Person-Centered treatment interventions and I have found that when using these interventions, people begin to realize the strength to overcome challenges.

Hi, I’m Cornelia. (Hablo Espanol) I know it is not easy to speak to a stranger about the hardest things we are going through. I commend you for stepping out of your comfort zone and seeking therapy. I have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) since 2008. I am qualified to provide therapy/counseling to those who live in Florida. I do not prescribe medication because I am not a psychiatrist. I can refer you to one if needed. I have worked with individuals who suffer from anxiety, depression, grief, adjustment and life transitions, women's issues, weight difficulties, addictions, chronic/terminal illness and caregiver burnout. I acknowledge your journey and will teach positive ways to deal with difficulties that are serving as obstacles preventing you from transforming your life.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in the state of Florida. I earned my Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Florida Gulf Coast University and have been working in the field for over seven years. I work with clients of all ages, from teenagers to older adults, helping them tap into their strengths, build self-esteem, and navigate the challenges they’re facing. My goal is to support you in creating a life that feels fulfilling and meaningful—a life you are truly excited to wake up to each day.

As a licensed Florida therapist, I help individuals navigate anxiety, depression, life transitions, and the emotional impact of chronic illness or stress. Specializing in women's issues, career shifts, and relationship dynamics, I offer a warm, collaborative space for both secular and faith-informed care. Utilizing CBT and DBT, we will work together to build practical coping skills, foster resilience, and bring clarity to your unique path forward.

Hi! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I received my Masters from Florida State University and have been practicing for 5 years. I strive to meet people where they are, without judgement. My goal is to provide a safe and welcoming space for all clients while we partner together on the issues/topics that matter to you the most.

My name is Erika Ragland, LCSW and I have been working in mental health for 15 years. I grew up in a Military family and lived all over the world. The world is an incredibly beautiful and complex place full of wisdom and possibility. Life looks different for everyone, and no one's challenges are the same, but everyone can benefit from objective, honest communication and clinical expertise.

Life presents a series of unique challenges and transitions that shape our experiences and personal growth. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my role is to provide a supportive and clinically informed environment where you can explore these challenges and develop strategies tailored to your needs. Together, we will work to strengthen relationships, build emotional resilience, and foster a deeper connection to your authentic self. This is an opportunity to transform challenges into growth and to recognize and cultivate the strengths within you. I am committed to working collaboratively with you to promote clarity, confidence, and lasting fulfillment.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor and licensed marriage and family therapist based in Miami, Florida, with over 8 years of experience supporting individuals and couples through life’s emotional challenges. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, relationship issues, life transitions, and depression, and I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. My style is collaborative, grounded, and compassionate. I believe therapy should be a safe place to explore what’s really going on beneath the surface and to begin shifting patterns that no longer serve you. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, stuck, disconnected, or unsure of what you need, we’ll work together to help you feel more in control, more empowered, and more connected to yourself and the people you care about. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) along with other evidence-based approaches to help clients understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact. That means we might gently challenge self-critical thinking, find new ways to manage anxiety or stress, or work on setting healthy boundaries in relationships. I also draw from systems theory in my work with couples and families, helping clients recognize how past dynamics may be influencing present struggles and how to build new, healthier ways of relating. My clients often tell me they feel a sense of relief just being able to speak openly, without pressure to have all the answers. I believe therapy is not about fixing you because you're not broken. It’s about giving you the space and tools to care for yourself in a deeper way. If you’re ready to begin this process, I’m here to walk alongside you.

I am committed to providing personalized and empathetic mental health care. I have extensive experience in both outpatient and inpatient treatment settings, I've worked with individuals from diverse backgrounds, guiding them through a wide range of emotional and psychological challenges. I work from a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, Strengths-Based Therapy, and Mindfulness techniques.

I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist passionate about helping adults navigate anxiety, emotional overwhelm, overthinking, relationship stress, and life transitions. I’ve worked in diverse clinical settings with individuals from many different backgrounds, which has helped me develop a flexible, down-to-earth approach to therapy that meets people where they are. I believe therapy should feel supportive, real, and collaborative — not intimidating or overly clinical. Many adults grew up in environments where emotions were minimized, dismissed, or discouraged.In adulthood, this often shows up as overthinking, difficulty expressing emotions in relationships, shutting down during conflict, anxiety in intimacy, low self-worth, and patterns of emotionally unhealthy relationships. In my work, I specialize in helping adults gently recognize and understand these emotional patterns without judgment or pressure to “fix everything at once.” Instead, we focus on building awareness, slowing things down, and creating space to respond differently over time. My goal is to help you feel more grounded in yourself, more connected in your relationships, and more confident in how you navigate your emotional world.

First time in therapy? Or ready to make a real change? It can feel uncomfortable opening up to someone new—but you don’t have to have it all figured out to start. I work with teens, young adults, and millennials—especially men and people of color—who are navigating anxiety, life transitions, and past experiences that may still be impacting them. I focus on creating a space that feels real, supportive, and easy to step into, while helping you better understand yourself, your needs, and build the clarity and confidence to move forward.

Hi, I’m so glad you’re here. I am an integrative therapist dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s unpredictable ups and downs with greater resilience and ease. My approach blends the depth of psychodynamic insights with the practical tools of CBT, all grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you stop fighting your difficult thoughts and emotions. Together, we will work on building the psychological flexibility you need to ride out life's emotional waves, break through old patterns, and actively create a rich, meaningful life that feels genuinely authentic to you.
