For the past 14 years, I have helped people of all ages, from many different communities, work through hard parts of life. I often work with adults who have lived through trauma and who grew up in tough family situations. I also work with DID and other dissociation experiences. I help clients make sense of trauma reactions, including feeling spaced out, shame, and guilt. My goal is to help people build healthier relationships with family and loved ones, and to feel safe in those relationships. As a therapist, I aim to be open-minded and to create a space where you feel safe and at ease talking about your life story.

Hello! It’s a pleasure to meet you, please call me Dee. I’m a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a retired Army veteran. I have over 18 years
of professional counseling experience working with both children and adults. My undergraduate degree was earned at the University of Mary
Hardin-Baylor and my graduate degree earned at the University of North Florida.
Credentials:
Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Nationally Board-Certified Mental Health Counselor
Certified Clinical Mental Health Counselor
Florida Board Certified Telehealth Practitioner
Certified Supervisor for Post Graduate Mental Health Counselors
I have served clients as individuals, families, and within group environments. Additionally, my counseling experience has included inpatient, outpatient, and crisis stabilization units within the Florida Department of Corrections. I also served as the mental health authority within medium to low-risk juvenile inpatient programs. My experience also includes working within community social service agencies and Medicaid programs. In my years of professional experience, I have found that Depressive and Anxiety Disorders are managed best using Psychotherapy. Whereas many clients may find it helpful to include Antidepressant/Antianxiety medications, it has been my experience that medications alone are less effective and are often supported by Counseling Intervention with a Professional Counselor.
Hi, I’m Erica, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida, and I’ve always felt deeply connected to understanding people and the stories that shape them. My passion is creating a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood as you work through life’s challenges. I believe therapy is a place to make sense of your experiences, reconnect with your strengths, and build confidence in your ability to grow and heal.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy. I focus on helping you explore your life at your own pace, while also supporting you in finding meaning and building resilience. Being a therapist, to me, means walking beside you—not leading, not pushing—just offering steady support as you move toward the life you want.
Hello! I’m Lesley-Ann Vickerie, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 15 years of experience in the social work field. My professional journey is rooted in a long history of advocacy and leadership within child welfare and community systems. I began my dedicated clinical training in 2018 and, since earning my Master of Social Work from the University of North Florida in 2020, I have focused on providing high-quality, trauma-informed telehealth care.
I work with teens, college students, and adults (ages 12–50) who are self-aware and reflective, yet feel "stuck" when trying to turn their inner insights into sustainable life changes. My practice is designed for those seeking a grounded, authentic way of moving through the world.
My Approach
Therapy with me is calm, collaborative, and grounded in real life. We slow things down so you can better understand what’s happening internally, make sense of patterns, and start moving with more clarity and intention.
I integrate CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and creative art-based tools to support both emotional understanding and practical change. Sessions are structured enough to feel supportive, but flexible enough to honor your pace and process. I believe that creative expression can often bridge the gap between "knowing" your patterns and actually "changing" them.
At the center of my work is your autonomy. We focus on helping you build tools that actually fit your life, not just our therapeutic space. My goal is to help you feel more connected to yourself, more confident in your direction, and supported as you move forward at your own pace.
I’m Cindy Ransom, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and Parenting/Mindset Coach with nearly 10 years of experience helping individuals and families find more balance, calm, and confidence. I specialize in supporting adults navigating anxiety, stress, and OCD, as well as parents who feel overwhelmed by the challenges of raising children. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and practical, drawing from evidence-based therapies such as CBT, ACT, ERP, and Motivational Interviewing, along with strengths-based Positive Psychology. I provide virtual therapy for clients in Florida and New York, and I also speak Spanish to serve a wider community. I’m passionate about helping clients move from feeling stuck to creating meaningful, lasting change.
Hi! I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I work with individuals of all ages to help them navigate challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, substance use, and relationship concerns. My goal is to provide a safe, compassionate space where you feel supported and understood as we work toward meaningful change together. When you’re ready to take that next step outside your comfort zone, I’ll be here to help you heal, grow, and feel better.
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. My counseling modalities include Cognitive behavioral therapy, Solution-focused, and Person-Centered therapy. When I counsel children, I use all of these in addition to Play therapy. Many of the therapeutic issues we work together on are Self-esteem, relationships, communication, trauma, PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, Social skills, and grief. I am a licensed therapist and have a Masters Degree in counseling. I have spent many years counseling children, adolescents, and adults. Although therapy may look different with each population, the process is equally meaningful in all sessions.

Whether you’re navigating stress at work, relationship struggles, or the weight of depression or ADHD, therapy with me is about helping you feel seen, supported, and empowered to create lasting change.

Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, build coping tools that actually fit your lifestyle, and help you rediscover a sense of balance and confidence in yourself.
Let’s take the next step therapy doesn’t have to feel heavy.
I am a psychotherapist with 16 years in private practice, seeing families, individuals and couples. I have dual master's degrees in both mental health counseling, and marriage and family therapy. Since 2010 I have been providing holistic care from both CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and Jungian traditions. Holistic health is an approach to wellness that simultaneously addresses the physical, mental, emotional, social, and spiritual components of health. The goals include integration, stability, hope and even joy. Holistic does not mean 'alternative', yet I am experienced in adjunct healing modalities like acupuncture, nutrition and yoga. I like to collaborate treatment in a team approach for my clients when able.
Hello,
I am Jennifer. I have been practicing in clinical social work 10+ years. I have a background in child welfare, grief, hospice, and outpatient therapy. I have really enjoyed getting to know my clients and helping them identify and work towards their goals. Life can be puzzling at times, but a different perspective can help clear the confusion and highlight the path forward.
I am a licensed mental health counselor with 14 years of experience working int he mental health field. Throughout the years, I have immersed myself in field to develop holistic approaches that alleviate common symptoms of various conditions including anxiety, stress management, and life transitions. My background in sociology and public health research provides me the unique experience of assessing societal trends impacting individuals' overall wellbeing.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with over 12 years of experience helping individuals navigate anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem struggles, life transitions, and the lasting impact of difficult life experiences. I believe therapy is most effective when you feel genuinely understood, emotionally safe, and free to show up exactly as you are.
My approach is warm, thoughtful, and collaborative. I view many of the challenges people face not as signs that something is wrong with them, but as adaptations that developed in response to past experiences, relationships, and circumstances. Together, we will work to understand the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, strengthen your connection with yourself, and create new ways of responding that align with the life you want to build.
I practice from a trauma-informed and attachment-focused perspective, integrating evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), and insight-oriented work. Many of the clients I work with struggle with perfectionism, people pleasing, self-criticism, difficulty setting boundaries, or recurring relationship patterns that leave them feeling frustrated or disconnected. My goal is to provide a space that is both supportive and transformative, where honesty is met with compassion, difficult conversations feel safe to explore, and meaningful growth can occur at a pace that feels manageable and sustainable.
Hello. I am Eddie
Do you feel constantly on edge—tense, anxious, or jittery? Are trembling, sweaty hands making everyday moments harder? Have dread and fear been weighing you down?
Maybe your relationships feel strained—every conversation with your partner turning into a disagreement—or perhaps the simple joy and ease you once had feel out of reach.
For over 20 years, I’ve helped people find their inner strength and build confidence they didn’t know they had. I dedicate my work to assisting individuals in achieving greater self-awareness, healthy assertiveness, and the courage to be vulnerable in safe, empowering ways.
Drawing from my expertise and experience, I teach proven coping strategies that help you navigate life’s stressors with clarity and resilience. I’ve had the privilege of working with people from diverse cultures and backgrounds, each bringing unique strengths and challenges to the process.
My approach is multifaceted, grounded in cognitive‑behavioral techniques. I am committed to challenging unhelpful thought patterns and inspiring fresh perspectives that facilitate change. My goal is simple yet profound: to help you trust yourself, rely on your abilities, and make decisions with confidence.
Progress takes work—but the rewards are life‑changing. Whether you’re facing anxiety, relationship difficulties, depression, or substance misuse, I won’t promise to “fix” everything. What I can promise is my full commitment—sharing every skill, tool, and insight I have—to help you explore, grow, and learn.
If you’re ready to take the next step, I’m ready to walk it with you.
Let’s get started.
I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 4 years of experience specializing in grief, trauma, and emotional regulation. As a first-generation immigrant, Queer Latina Canadian, I am dedicated to supporting and advocating for my community. I have extensive experience working with youth, the Latinx community, and LGBTQ+ individuals in both English and Spanish. My commitment to helping others, particularly in crisis situations, is driven by a deep-seated passion for service and empathy.
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!
In a session with me, I will be honest but also supportive. My goal is to get you to a place where you do not need me because we have worked together to help you build a supportive and fulfilling life. To that end, I will incorporate counseling in emotional processing, interpersonal communication, self-care, and career into your sessions because it is our whole lives that determine our happiness and ability to handle stress.
I have about 10 years of experience as a psychotherapist. Before becoming a therapist, I worked in business as an efficiencies expert. I have a wide variety of experience from my time in business working in IT and business administration in various markets (from finance to manufacturing).
My decision to become a therapist was based on my need to restart my life more happily and healthily a little over 10 years ago. I take a more existential approach to psychotherapy and utilize other approaches such as CBT and DBT and teach about the brain and how it reacts to stress.

Hello. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), anxiety specialist, and author of several illustrated mental health guides focused on anxiety disorders and OCD. I specialize in helping people with anxiety disorders, including OCD, panic disorder, agoraphobia, social anxiety, generalized anxiety, and body-focused repetitive behaviors such as hair pulling and skin picking.

My passion is walking beside you with empathy, curiosity, and collaboration so you feel seen, heard, and supported. My approach is structured but compassionate, drawing on CBT, ERP, ACT, and trauma-informed care to help you reduce anxiety, overcome avoidance, and move toward growth and healing.
I’m the author of Yesterday It Rained: An Illustrated Guide to Living with Anxiety, Quieting the Noise: A Visual Guide to Living with OCD, and When OCD Attacks Love: A Visual Guide to Understanding and Managing Relationship OCD.

As a Licensed Therapist, I am committed to maintaining the highest ethical and professional standards and contributing to advancing the social work profession.
With over 25 years of experience in social work, I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) fluent in two languages/cultures. I have provided counseling and therapy to individuals, couples, families, and groups using evidence-based and culturally sensitive approaches. I also offer online telehealth services.
Are you struggling with anxiety, daily stressors, or day-to-day routine? I will help you overcome a range of needs including career, daily stressors, anxiety, codependency, and/or compassion fatigue using a person-centered and strengths-based approach. I specify in helping women and work to empower women of all ages and stages of life. We will work together to build coping skills and will create and establish goals to complete during therapy. Everyone's growth and development will be different and the outcome will be based on each individual. Whether new or returning to therapy it takes great strength to begin and I look forward to speaking with you soon.
As a licensed clinical social worker, I am committed to collecting evidenced based "tools for my toolbox" to aid those grappling with finding the new normal after their world has shifted. I most love helping people find language to describe their losses, often when there has been difficulty finding the words, inspiring people to find hope again, and facilitate the development of a plan to move forward in a way that both honors their experiences and embraces the future.
I take an action-oriented, collaborative approach to therapy. I utilize a combination of psychoeducation, storytelling, and evidenced-based interventions to offer meaningful insight to support clients’ healing. I strongly believe that rock bottom is the foundation upon which we can rebuild our lives. We do regular check-ins to review progress along the way. Our goal is not to change the past, but instead to find some relief from symptoms that impact daily functioning. I will solicit feedback regularly during sessions for takeaways to gauge progress and curate treatment interventions based on what is most engaging and productive for the individual client.
Hello!
I am Sam and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Board Certified Art Therapist. I believe that every individual is capable of change. I know change can be scary and it takes courage to make the first step in asking for help. I believe building rapport and being met with compassion is essential to creating a healing environment to empower you to be the best you. Sometimes we are just held back by maladaptive behavioral or thought patterns, we feel overwhelmed with distressing thoughts and emotions, we experience constant worry/anxiety over past or future events, or we find that words simply are not enough to express ourselves. With my support, we will fill your toolbox full of skills to reach your full potential, overcome obstacles, and live the life that you want to live!
I use evidence-based practices with my clients which include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (skills-based). I have also been trained in Exposure and Response Prevention.
I have spent most of my post-graduate experience working with adolescents and adults with depression, anxiety, and OCD. My goal as a clinician is to set up therapeutic goals and then provide my clients with the right tools to reach those goals, all while providing a safe place to express themselves.

Welcome — I know reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve spent a long time feeling misunderstood, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or unsure how to move forward.
Many of my clients come to therapy struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, self-worth issues, attachment wounds, or feeling disconnected from themselves and the people around them. Some are navigating conflict, betrayal, burnout, identity concerns, or simply feeling “stuck” despite trying hard to hold everything together.
My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, understood, and challenged in a healthy way. I take a compassionate but active approach to therapy — helping clients not only process emotions, but also understand their patterns, regulate their nervous system, and build practical tools for lasting change.
You do not have to figure everything out alone.
"As a highly experienced Licensed Professional Counselor with 27 years in the mental health field, I aim to empower individuals to find inner strength and confidence and to believe in themselves again. I work with clients through a solution-focused and CBT approach to identify and develop the skills needed to resolve their unique challenges and situations. I help clients to embrace their truth and live in the present, encouraging them to take responsibility for their actions while also reminding them that it is ok not to be perfect.
I have a breadth of experience working with youth and adults struggling with various mental health issues, including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and grief. In addition, I have specialized expertise in working with caregivers, primarily women, to help them overcome guilt, isolation, and overwhelming stress.
My ultimate goal is to provide clients with the tools and resources to change their circumstances and improve their mental health well-being. " I believe everyone has the ability to overcome life's challenges and deserve to live a happy and healthy life."
I’m currently accepting new clients and open to referrals for virtual therapy across Florida. I work primarily with high-functioning women navigating anxiety, burnout, career changes or planning, challenges in friendships and relationships, stress, life transitions, and feeling stuck despite doing everything right. Many of my clients are used to holding it all together but feel overwhelmed internally.
My approach is practical, structured, and focused on helping clients create real, lasting change—not just talk through problems. I use evidence-based methods including CBT and DBT to help clients better manage anxiety, build emotional regulation skills, and move forward with clarity and confidence.
I offer $100 self-pay sessions and maintain a consistent, supportive process with clear communication, making it easy for both clients and referral partners. I may match you with a clinician in my network based on fit and availability.
Hi There! I'm Raquel, I specialize in helping adults find healing and lasting recovery from symptoms of anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship challenges.

My approach to therapy is focused on building trust, promoting self-awareness, and empowerment. I integrate trauma-informed care, strength base, and harm reduction to help my clients with quicker healing and lasting recovery. I use a variety of methods and techniques, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness, and EMDR.
I recognize that therapy is not easy, I offer a safe judgment free space. I aim to create a nurturing and supportive environment where you feel understood and validated in your experiences.
