I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with four years of experience in the mental health field. My approach is client-centered, with a strong foundation in Motivational Interviewing to support clients in identifying and achieving their personal goals. I focus on building resilience by collaboratively developing effective coping strategies and empowering clients with the tools they need to navigate life’s challenges with confidence and clarity. **Some additional time slots not listed on calendar may be available upon request**

Born and raised in Miami, Florida, I have always been passionate about supporting the mental health and well-being of adolescents/youth and young adults. After earning a degree in Social Work from Florida International University, I gained extensive experience working with young people in various educational settings, including Ferguson Senior High School, South Miami Heights Elementary, and Richmond Heights Middle School as a Mental Health Coordinator. I also have experience working individuals with disabilities and veterans experiencing homelessness/substance abuse.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor with a background in healthcare, and I’m passionate about helping people feel stronger, more confident, and more at peace with themselves. I primarily work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions, especially women who are adjusting to new phases or challenges in life. Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years working in the healthcare field. This experience deepened my understanding of how physical and emotional well-being are connected and gave me a holistic view of the challenges my clients face. My goal is to help you move forward in a healthy, balanced, and fulfilling way so you can become the best version of yourself.

With a passion for personal development and emotional well-being, I specialize in guiding individuals on their journey toward self-discovery and transformation. My approach combines evidence-based techniques with a compassionate understanding of each person's unique experiences. I believe in fostering a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings, uncover their true potential, and develop the resilience needed to navigate life's challenges.

I am committed to building a trusting relationship through listening, honesty, and empathy. I look forward to supporting you and working with you to help discover your strengths and coping skills.

With a career spanning over 27 years, I am a distinguished Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, recognized for my extensive work in both high-paced agency environments and specialized private practice. My professional journey has been defined by a deep-seated commitment to human resilience and a nuanced understanding of the systemic and psychological barriers that impact mental health. Throughout my two and a half decades of practice, I have cultivated a unique expertise in navigating the intersection of culture, socio-economic status, and individual mental health. Having worked with a vast spectrum of clients—from adolescents finding their identity to adults navigating complex life transitions—I bring a seasoned, evidence-based approach to every session. My clinical philosophy goes beyond symptom management; it is rooted in the belief that adversity is a catalyst for profound personal evolution. By integrating a wealth of clinical modalities with a culturally responsive lens, I empower clients to dismantle long-standing obstacles and build a foundation for sustainable health and professional excellence.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor working in South Florida for the past eight years. I graduated with a Masters in Psychology from Florida International University. I have worked with adults, adolescents, and children. I have worked with clients to help alleviate symptoms of depression, anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, ADHD, and interpersonal conflicts.

Hello and welcome! Something brought you here today, whether it has been a long time coming or a split decision. I am really happy you decided to seek out support. This is often one the hardest decisions to make, but it can make all of the difference. My name is Brittany and I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida since 2015. I earned a Bachelors Degree in Psychology from Marymount Manhattan College in New York City, NY and a Masters Degree in Counselor Education from Florida International University in Miami, FL. I have worked in a variety of settings and with people of all ages. I have experience working with people who have suffered great hardships and significant trauma and those constantly plagued by depression. I have a lot of experience supporting people run down by stress and relentless anxiety. It brings me great joy to see people find the courage within and build up their strength to manifest a life that brings them joy. I believe the most important aspect of counseling is the connection and comfort we feel with our therapist. We all want to feel accepted and understood. I believe it’s very important to be open-minded and non-judgmental when someone shares their experiences with me. I am bi-cultural and bi-lingual. Je parle français! I have learned to identify and value both the commonalities and differences of the human experience across cultures. I highly respect and value different cultural backgrounds and how this can shape our world view, especially for individuals who identify with more than one culture. Each person is an expert in themselves. My job is to support you, help you discover what you may not be seeing, find out why you may be stuck and provide useful tools to promote healing and growth.

I am a dedicated Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida, North Carolina, and Texas. I help individuals, living with mental health challenges such as anxiety, and life transitions. I integrate a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches—including CBT, mindfulness-based techniques, and more—to empower clients to build resilience and achieve personal growth. My goal is to create a supportive, transformative environment where clients can unlock their potential and experience lasting, positive change.

Are you struggling with stress, anxiety, or feeling stuck in life? Whether you're facing challenges in relationships, work, or major life transitions, you don’t have to navigate them alone. I provide a supportive, judgment-free space for adults and young people alike to process emotions, gain clarity, and develop lasting coping strategies. Many of my clients are professionals balancing career and personal life, individuals facing relationship struggles, or young adults adjusting to new responsibilities. No matter where you are in life, therapy can help you regain confidence and create meaningful change.

Welcome! Please schedule a free 15 minunte consultation call with me before scheduling any sessions. This will let us know if we are a good fit. I graduated with a master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I have had the opportunity to work with families, individuals and couples (English and Spanish speaking) of diverse backgrounds in helping them through concerns such as grief, parent-child conflict, intergenerational conflict, trauma, depression, anxiety and so on. My therapeutic and advocacy experience has reinforced in me the value of helping others gain insight and implement strategies to move towards positive change.

I am accepting new clients. Enter your information and I will reach out to you directly to set your appointment. Appointments are available face-to-face and telehealth on Thursday, Friday and Saturday and can be typically scheduled within 2 weeks of request. You are feeling like you have lost control over your life. You look around and it seems like all your choices are being made for you and when you try to go after what you want, you feel defeated before you can even take the first step. It does not have to be this way. In my role as a therapist, I believe it is my job to clear the fog that clouds the path that you want to be on. I believe that everyone is the expert of their own life. We become better at navigating our lives when we learn accurate information, remove the judgment that comes with other people's attempts to control our life, and take a clear look at potential outcomes (both good and bad) of our choices. My passion is to empower and not dictate. It is my honor to listen and not judge. It is a privilege to explore with you wherever you want to go, whether into the past or looking into the future, and watch each person discover their own strengths and build the life that they want to live while breaking down the barriers inside that hold us back. I am not the therapist for everyone. I am the therapist for the client that knows they want better for themselves but may not know how to get there. I am direct, realistic, creative with problem solving...and sometimes profane. You have the wheel in your hands and I do love a good mental health road trip!

In therapy, I counsel individuals, families, couples, and children. No matter how trivial an issue may seem, everyone has issues in life. If it is causing you emotional pain, that is a good reason to seek out help. I understand everyone has a different journey in their lives and I would like to assist you in your path to self-discovery and healing. Your issues may be stress, loneliness, sadness, frustration, or concern for a loved one. You are not alone and I am ready to help you explore strategies to help you improve your life. Each session is provided in a warm and compassionate environment. I will ask you some questions so I can understand which issues you want to focus on. Therapy is a process of learning and the rewards are great. You will develop parts of yourself that you did not know existed. This will help you to become a better parent, partner, and best friend to yourself and your loved ones. Are you ready to take that step of self-discovery to become the best version of yourself? I want to guide you in your path to self-discovery, happiness, and peace. I have been counseling clients for over 24 years and I work with all populations.

With over 18 years of dedicated service in counseling, I am committed to enhancing mental health and well-being in clients of all ages. My journey began when I was impacted by a compassionate school counselor during my younger years. Inspired by her positive influence, I embarked on this path to support others in their mental health journeys. Throughout my career, I have worked to address a wide range of emotional and behavioral challenges. I work with clients on anxiety management, depression support, assist in navigating grief, ADHD or other behavioral challenges, & help foster healthy relationships & family systems.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of professional mental health experience. I graduated with my Bachelor's in Psychology in 2008 and my Master's degree in Counselor Education, with a graduate certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, in 2012. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, which has given me a wide range of clinical experience and allowed me to work with clients from different walks of life and cultural backgrounds. I am radical and revolutionary in thought and praxis and believe in a liberated and equitable world for all people. Clients who tend to be attracted to me are those who may struggle with a lack of confidence and self-esteem, those who are plagued with "Imposter Syndrome", and those who identify as people-pleasers. I also work with People of Color on healing internalized oppression. My clients are often very bright and self-aware but feel they are missing the tools, accountability and higher-level knowledge to get themselves into action and start making tangible, concrete progress. Additional areas of focus: Addictions, LGBT, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Depression, Coping with life changes, Life Purpose, Multicultural Concerns, Prejudice and Discrimination, Self-Love, Women's Issues Therapy does not have to be a years-long, overwhelming or deeply painful process. Many people I have worked with have remarked that they were surprised at how quickly they were able to feel a sense of progress, where they felt stagnant for years or decades prior. While I am very good at what I do, I can only meet you as far and as deep as you are willing to go yourself. Those who are proactive about their healing work and take responsibility tend to make the most progress in the least amount of time.

I hold every session with empathy and compassion, but also with realness. I believe in truth-telling that heals, the kind that may not always be easy to hear but always comes from love and respect for who you are becoming.

I walk beside those who are ready to stop surviving and begin living in alignment with their wholeness. You do not need to be fixed. You need to be met, witnessed, and reminded of the power that has always been yours. In this space, healing is sacred, personal, and deeply human.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience.Throughout my career I have worked with adults and geriatric clients living with depression , anxiety and bipolar disorders. In addition I have provided therapy and support for caregivers.I consider myself an advocate for people who are struggling with chronic mental illness as well as those who may have episodic bouts of depression and/or anxiety.

I am an experienced Psychotherapist (25 years) who is licensed to provide therapy to individuals, couples, and families. I am a graduate of Northwestern University (where I was awarded an Honorarium), The Family Institute at Northwestern University, and The Chicago Institute for Psychoanalysis. While completing my graduate studies, I was chosen to be mentored by several of the top Family Therapy Theorists in the United States.

Hello, thank you for viewing my profile. "Building Resilience Through Empowerment" is the belief that guides me as a therapist. I believe everyone has the ability to overcome any obstacle(s) they are facing. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, and I have over 25 years of experience providing counseling services to children, adolescents, adults, couples and families.

Everyone wants to feel seen and understood — that’s the heart of my work. My goal is to create a space where you can be honest, curious, and supported as you figure things out. I’m certified in EMDR, Circle of Security Parenting International and TF-CBT, and I use a mix of evidence-based approaches, sarcasm, and real talk to help you feel seen and supported. Therapy with me is collaborative, grounded, and occasionally lighthearted — because healing is serious, but it doesn’t always have to feel heavy. I’m a therapist who won't just pat you on the back and agree with everything you say; I will make you feel seen and understood while also challenging you, holding you accountable, and pushing you toward becoming the best version of yourself and the person you want to be.

If you are struggling, I’d like to offer a safe space where honesty and authenticity are values and encouraged. You don't need to waste time worrying about stigmas or perceptions, because seeing a therapist doesn't mean that anything is inherently wrong with you or that you don't have the capacity to solve your own problems. Family and friends can be incredible sources of support, but they often can feel compelled to "fix" the problems we discuss with them which can lead to us not wanting to burden them and, in turn, just holding on to things. I can offer an objective take, totally free from any judgment or expectations. Let's talk!

My approach in practice is forming a therapy alliance, a partnership with you, to provide support, and guidance in this journey, while navigating feelings related to emotional, mental, physical distress, family conflict, trauma, life transitions, boundaries and overall life challenges. I am here to help you identify and navigate through unhealthy coping, while learning and establishing healthy and sustainable coping skills .

I offer a grounded, non-judgmental presence where difficult emotions can be explored without shame, and I work collaboratively with clients to strengthen autonomy, clarity, and resilience. My goal is not simply symptom relief, but helping you build a more integrated and authentic sense of self.
