Trained as a psychologist (Ph.D. from Cornell University).

If you answer yes to any of the following 6 questions, you've come to the right place: 1) Are you feeling stressed, lost, sad, anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, or without direction? 2) Are you having relationship or marital problems? 3) Are you experiencing conflict with friends, family, neighbors and/or co-workers? 4) Are you having difficulty concentrating or accomplishing everyday tasks? 5) Are the activities you once loved, no longer enjoyable? 6) Are you having difficulty controlling your anger or regulating your emotions? In practicing for 30+ years, I’ve had the opportunity to help thousands of people just like you to find joy, contentment, enthusiasm, inspiration, love, peace, and purpose in their lives. I’ve met many of my clients at their lowest points and have always provided them with steadfast support as they tackled their toughest challenges and reached for their highest goals. My therapeutic methodology will be tailored specifically to you. You have your own distinct needs, different from anyone else’s, and, therefore, you deserve your own unique approach that will best suit your personality and your goals. I always seek to deliver the best service possible, and I provide each client with what they need to succeed. I look forward to working with you! I will be here with you every step of the way.

Hi, my name is Vijaya Siddalingappa also known as VJ. I am a licensed clinical psychologist PhD, and currently practice in Florida. I have been in the mental health field for 25 years. I speak 2 additional languages( Hindi and Kannada) and I am currently offering telehealth appointments. I am very happy to be a part of the Grow community! I have a holistic approach with a non judgmental stance as I believe each individual is unique. So I tailor interventions to client's needs and not use "one size fits all" approach. I have an unconditional approach and appreciate diversity in each person accentuating their strengths. I use passive approach (providing space for venting their feelings) and an active approach by teaching cognitive behavioral skills which clients can easily learn and use these skills when needed. I like to cook, exercise, watch football and volunteer at community events for the less fortunate. I maintain a healthy balance with work, recreation and self- care. I work hard and play hard! My experience includes working with adults, geriatrics, children and women in outpatient and inpatient settings. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, (CBT); Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT); Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT); and Trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TFCBT). I am also passionate about individual differences and multicultural studies. My expertise is working with addictions (dual diagnosis), trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar, Obsessive compulsive disorders, schizophrenia, domestic violence and sexual abuse, stress management, loss and grief, and adjustment disorders. We never arrive! I learn something new and grow every day. Look forward to working with you!

A little bit about me, my name is Amanda Chilleme, I am a Florida and North Carolina Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Master’s Certified Addiction professional. I first hung my shingle in 2013, working with a dual diagnosis population of young adults. For the last 7 years I have been helping my clients identify intrinsically important goals, overcoming obstacles, and build the foundation for a better future. My specialty has been working with men and women struggling with both substance abuse and process or behavioral addictions; helping them to find the pathway to a life unencumbered by the shackles of their past. I also have years of experience treating clients with anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive disorders, bereavement, trauma, attachment, and personality disorders. As a clinician, I utilize a human or client focused approach to counseling. I am not here to tell you the reason you called, or what you need to work on; you made the call, you already know the “what”. As a clinician, it is my job to help you understand the “why”, and eventually, the “how” (to fix it, overcome it, or just plain throw it away). At your first session, it is essentially a two-way interview; as I listen to your story/narrative, and the “rough draft” (as I lovingly call it) begins to unfold, WE as a team determine if 1) I am the right therapist for you, and 2) If you are the right client for me. If we both agree to move forward from the first session, identifying your goals will be your first assignment; giving you the opportunity to do this, helps me to better see how you think and interpret your barriers (i.e., stress, anxiety, depression, relationships, etc.). The second session, we begin to rank these goals, and identify the objectives that will help us to achieve these milestones together. I am your coach, teammate, and cheer leader! We will focus on one goal at a time. Remember “slow and steady wins the race”! As we reach the culmination of one goal, we will move on to the next. Whether you are just starting this process, or you have been in it for a while, I encourage you to plant that mustard seed, and watch just how beautifully you can grow. Schedule an appointment and begin to achieve the best thing of all, the very best version of you!

Sometimes people experience emotional problems (e.g., anxiety, depression), behavioral problems (e.g., overeating, smoking), or relationship problems (e.g., excessive arguing, poor communication) that interfere with their daily functioning. These difficulties result from the interaction of biological, learning, behavioral, and environmental factors, which influence patterns of thinking and behaving. Negative life events can contribute to the development of self-defeating patterns of thinking and behaving, which some people can have difficulty changing. In my work, which I have been practicing for 40 years, I help people identify these self-defeating patterns and develop strategies for dealing with them. I emphasize the importance of practicing these strategies consistently, with the goal of handling emotions more effectively and behaving in more responsible and healthy ways. I focus on life pattern changes with respect to relationships, depression, anxiety, anger control, impulse control, and stress management.

As a clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience, I have had the privilege of working with culturally, economically and ethnically diverse individuals, families, couples and groups from all walks of life. I have practiced domestically and internationally including, NYC, California and most recently in Dublin, Ireland. (Please note that I am only taking tele-therapy clients and use a HIPPA approved site. I have found using tele-therapy to be very convenient for clients with challenging schedules). I have extensive knowledge and training related to gender identity, sexuality, non-traditional relationships; i.e. polyamory/open relationships, as well as expertise and personal experience with personality disorders including: Narcissism; Borderline; Avoidant; Antisocial and the emotional trauma experienced in relationships with people affected by these mental health issues.

Greetings, You may have read through a few profiles, and I owe you to feel the difference with mine. My name is Brahm, well, actually it is Robert Abraham Fay, my parents were hippies, so you can see where that went. Life can be difficult, and I know this first-hand. By the age of 17 I was in a homeless shelter (due to a violent alcoholic stepfather), and I had some people help me along the way. Vocational Rehabilitation helped me get a bike, and I rode to Valencia College for 2 years, was recruited to Rollins College on a grant, and attended grad-school at Troy University. I have taught upon resilience in: China, Russia, Germany, and the US. Here's what's up, of course life is difficult, and the more we run from it the more we suffer. All those years in homeless shelters taught me how to ask for help when necessary. I am a licensed clinician; perhaps trapped in a case manager's body. Counselors can provide a flashlight on all of the nooks & crannies of the past, but as your case manager, we are looking at a spotlight on your future. I will never ask, "How does that make you feel?" Dumb question. I avoid the word "why," too judgemental. "Should, would, and could" are toxic verbiage as well. My job is to get fired. Plain and simple. People only need me like training wheels. The answers being sought are already inside, hence the flashlight. What stokes my professional fire is on the outside, where the version of YOU2.0 shines through. If you are a member of a marginalized population, including all of my LGBTAQLatin+ Non-Binary, Sis, Pan, Poly & Unlabeled family, I see you and I love you. Incels & Toxic Masculinity folk are welcome on my roster; alas, only if they believe they can recover in a safe place, as my door is always open to individual improvement. Let's find your voice, and then you can fire me! YAY!!! (confetti) That's the thrust of my existence, when I text you -- and you say, "Thank you for everything, Brahm, I think I've got this now." See? That's what's up.

Much of my professional experience includes a vast range of ages including children, adolescents, young adults, and seniors. I value the importance of community connections by reducing the stigma of mental health in organizations as well as stress reduction techniques. I enjoy working with couples, and families who are struggling in communication. I specialize in overcoming life difficulties including trauma, grief and loss, relationship issues, ADD/ADHD, Depression, Anxiety, coping skills, self-esteem, infertility, family conflict and unexpected birthing outcomes. As well as overcoming perinatal/ maternal post-partum disorders. I am a compassionate bilingual licensed clinical social worker who has served the SWFL community for over 16 years. She is also a qualified supervisor and a mentor for those seeking clinical supervision for licensure. Carolina Ferrer is a unique psychotherapist who incorporates, body, mind and body practices as well as group meetings connections
