Therapists in Florida

Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a National Certified Counselor doing therapy for 25 years. I've always worked in schools, with my last decade in a university counseling center so young adults are my specialized population. My specialty areas are anxiety/stress, ADHD, adjustment/life transitions, self-esteem, academic concerns, and personal development (identity, career, LGBTQIA+). One fun fact is that I'm a trained drumming facilitator so I love using music (and art) in therapy when you are open to it. For more information on me and my services, check out my website: https://imagine-change-counseling.com/

As a dedicated licensed mental health counselor and wellness advocate, I am passionate about guiding individuals towards holistic well-being through the integration of mental health support and lifestyle adjustments. With a compassionate approach and a commitment to personalized care, I strive to empower my clients to cultivate resilience, achieve balance, and thrive in all aspects of their lives. Drawing upon evidence-based practices and a client-centered approach, I provide a safe and supportive space for individuals to explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Whether facing anxiety, stress management, relationship issues, chronic illness, grief and loss, or life transitions, I offer guidance and strategies to promote healing, self-discovery, and personal growth.

I am Jennifer McCollum, a licensed counselor specializing in grief, resilience, and complex life transitions. My practice supports an eclectic mix of adults, children, and families navigating trauma, loss, and personal growth. As a Gold Star Spouse and school system veteran, I bridge the gap between clinical expertise and lived understanding. Together, we slow down, process the heavy chapters, and find your footing.

I have been in therapy myself and understand how hard it can be to make the first appointment. My approach is person centered and individually tailored for the client. Together we will collaborate and develop a strong therpeutic alliance to achieve your goals in therapy. Clients say they feel comfortable sharing their deepest emotional hurts, thoughts and concerns with me.

More and more people are searching for emotional health, mental stability, peace, and love in today’s world. In our quest to achieve this stability, we look outside ourselves, and we, unfortunately, are still experiencing feelings and a sense of emptiness within us. It is not until we truly start the journey of the inner search when the magic begins to happen, and let me tell you, I am here to guide and support you through this journey. I have been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor since 1998. I was born in Barranquilla, Colombia, where I completed my bachelor’s in Clinical Psychology and later in Florida earned my Master’s in Science from Carlos Albizu University in 1995. I am offering you more than 30 years of experience with conventional and alternative emotional and mental healing modalities. Through the use of experiential exercises, I will encourage and support you to develop effective coping strategies for dealing with the pressures of daily life, reducing stress and anxiety, and bringing wellness overall. Within my clients, I assist in finding and rediscovering their inner strengths that ultimately provide the needed coping skills. There are many activities I enjoy in my day-to-day life, and some of them are: meditating, reading, cooking vegetarian dishes, traveling, also enjoying the family, especially the kids, likes taking walks by the beach, and experiencing sunrise and sunsets. My hope for helping humanity is to bring lightness to work with my clients in these difficult times. With the basis of understanding that everyone’s experience is unique, I work step by step with each individual to establish a clear path in the direction of feeling better, making progress towards healing, and improving overall wellbeing, one person at a time.

Starting therapy can be a difficult process. I make this process as easy for you as possible. Therapy starts with us getting to know each other and for me to understand your needs for treatment. I want to make sure that I can meet your requirements and help you work on what you came into treatment for or find you someone who can. As a therapist, I help you become the best version of yourself. My job is to give you the skills to manage difficulties when they occur. Situations occur that you may not feel equipped to handle. Let me support you to help you get through and gain insight about yourself and your ability to handle things in the future. I provide a comfortable and non-intrusive environment. I work with people to help them develop a strong sense of self, learn to have healthier relationships, learn mindfulness, distress tolerance skills, and other ways to regulate their emotions, reduce anxiety, and learn to be less impulsive. If you have moments when you think you should reach out for help or support, even if the thoughts are fleeting, I encourage you to reach out to me for support.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey that involves empathically listening without judgment. I use a variety of methods that are personally tailored approach for each client and situation. As a therapist, I am empathetic, supportive , and straightforward. I consider myself an open minded therapist who uses learned skills, experience, and sense of humor to offer logical and realistic approach to counseling. In addition to therapy, I offer evaluations and documentation for Emotional Support Animals (ESA) when clinically appropriate. ESA letters can help individuals with mental health challenges access the support they need from their animal companions. ESA letters are issued after a thorough assessment to ensure they meet ethical and legal standards. If you’re considering an ESA, feel free to discuss this during your session. I also understand that mental health symptoms can impact school, testing, or work performance. I provide support and documentation for accommodations (such as extended test time, modified environments, or school/workplace supports) to help clients demonstrate their true ability, when clinically appropriate and not after a single session.

My goal is to guide you toward your goals. I consider it a privilege and an honor to walk with you as you create a life you don’t want to escape.

My name is Amanda Chilleme, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, as well as a Master’s Certified Addiction Professional. For over 11 years, I have supported individuals in identifying what truly matters to them, navigating obstacles, and building a foundation for a more fulfilling future. My primary specialty is working with men and women struggling with substance use disorders as well as process and behavioral addictions, helping them find a pathway to a life that feels less burdened and more aligned. I also have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders, grief and bereavement, trauma, attachment concerns, and personality disorders. As a clinician, I take a human-focused approach. I am not here to tell you what you need to work on—you already know the what. My role is to help you understand the why, and ultimately the how: how to shift it, heal it, overcome it, or, when appropriate, let it go altogether. Your first session is best described as a two-way interview. As I listen to your story and your narrative begins to take shape, we collaboratively determine two things: Whether I am the right therapist for you, and Whether this therapeutic relationship is the right fit for both of us. If we decide to move forward together, identifying your goals becomes your first assignment. This process allows me to better understand how you think, how you interpret challenges, and how barriers such as stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship dynamics show up for you. From there, we focus on one goal at a time. I see myself as your coach, teammate, and cheerleader! Whether you are just beginning therapy or have been on this journey for some time, I invite you to plant that seed—and see just how beautifully you grow.

I was inspired to become a therapist because I wanted to be the kind of safe, supportive presence for others that I needed during my own childhood. What I love most about this work is seeing the growth my clients make, but also being there through the tough times when they stumble and watching them find the strength to get back up. I have a deep commitment to building trust, honoring each person’s unique journey, and empowering them to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Hello! Do you ever feel like "you are losing your mind" or "going crazy"? Do you feel like you want to share your feelings with someone but are scared or ashamed, or feeling like you should be able to "fix" your problems? Well, I think most people feel this way from time to time and it helps to have an objective, non-judgemental person to talk with. I am that person. I have been a psychotherapist for over 30 years and love to help people become the healthiest and happiest person that they can be. And, I would love to help you explore your issues in a safe and comfortable manner. Whatever issues you have, be it anxiety, depression, PTSD, abuse, addiction, I am here to help you overcome what is keeping you from being the person that you want to be.

My background includes working in high-stress settings and supporting people through complex challenges. Those experiences have shaped a practical, down-to-earth approach that focuses on strategies you can actually use in everyday life. I believe you are the expert on your own life. You already have strengths and resilience within you, even if they’re difficult to see right now. My role is to help you recognize those strengths, build on them, and develop the tools and confidence to create lasting, meaningful change. Reaching out for help takes courage. It’s the first step toward creating a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and joyful. If you’re ready to start that journey, I’m here to support and empower you every step of the way.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 20 years of experience, I am dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges with compassion, insight, and practical support. At Sunrise Counseling and Wellness, LLC, I provide a warm, collaborative space where clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. Whether you're struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or a major life transition, I tailor therapy to your unique needs using evidence-based approaches, like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI) and EMDR-informed techniques as I continue advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

Overwhelmed? Trouble saying "no" to people? Do you sometimes feel like you're making decisions based on other people's opinions/wants/needs/expectations over your own? Are your feelings and needs getting neglected? Or maybe talking about feelings is just really difficult for you, as it is for most people. It's common to avoid communication all together because it just feels like conflict. I am an openly a queer person, running a private practice since 2021, but practicing therapy full-time since 2018. I focus on trauma work, anxiety, shame, identity exploration, and boundaries/setting limits! When I say trauma work, sometimes people always assume the most extreme - but with all clients I find it beneficial to reflect on impactful or very painful past experiences and how it shapes our relationships and present-day life. I can offer you a better understanding and education of your body's nervous system, because the mind and body are connected, and trauma is held within our bodies. My goal is to work with you on improving self-awareness, understanding your automatic reactions, and having direct coping tools based on your specific experiences and mental health symptoms, so you can enjoy the present and feel more free and in control. I’ll help you identify your unmet needs and your emotions, and practice better communication and conflict-resolution often, too. However as educational, direct, and action-oriented I try to be, I also work from a place of compassion. Therapy is very vulnerable! I am ultimately giving you the space and time to get any current worries off your mind, and I try to always work from a place of patience, empathy, and flexibility, too. I've been in the client's chair many times, and I know exactly how important it is to feel free to talk without being judged.

I am especially passionate about working with women during pregnancy and postpartum, parents, caregivers, and individuals who have spent so much time caring for others that they've forgotten how to care for themselves.

Hi, I’m Neph! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I received my master’s in Social Work from Loyola University Chicago and have been practicing for about 5 years. I have several years of experience as a social worker and primary therapist treating adolescents and adults with substance use and mental health issues. I use a strengths-based approach combined with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing (MI), and person-centered therapy to empower clients and help them address their unique needs.

Life can be hard, and I know that not only from my professional experience, but from my own personal journey. I’ve been working in the mental health field for over six years, but my perspective as a therapist has also been shaped by growing up in a multicultural family, with a Mexican mother and British father, experiencing poverty, becoming the first in my family to attend college, and having the opportunity to experience many different cultures and parts of the world. Those experiences have taught me that no matter how much or how little we have, we are all human. There are no perfect parents, perfect relationships, or perfect people—we’re all imperfect people trying to make sense of life, navigate challenges, and become better versions of ourselves.

I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space to help you regain balance, think more clearly, and move toward the life you want to live. I specialize in trauma that affects adults.

Our current political and economic climates give many causes for concern. It can affect daily life, such as work, home, school, and social circles, essentially taking the fun out of what was once pleasurable. The same things that DO seem to help can eventually cause more pain. Who can you talk to when no one is listening? It would be helpful to have someone to talk to who can be objective, non-judgmental, and open-minded...but who could that be? Hello, I'm Montavious. What sets me apart is an ear for listening, a guiding approach, and an interest in helping you to overcome these obstacles. Join me by scheduling an appointment for a fitting. No one cares what you know unless they KNOW that you care! Contact me now to find out how!

"You are your best thing"-Toni Morrison. Growing through this journey we call life will unfortunately bring things you can't control & it's not always easy to cope & it's not always easy to talk to someone. Going to therapy doesn't "fix" you. It enhances you, it helps you to better understand why you struggle with certain patterns & behaviors & why you feel stuck at times. So, pat yourself on the back for choosing yourself, right now in this moment & for making the right decision to strive beyond where you are. Know you don't have to walk this journey alone. I'm a diverse & creative therapist who is passionate about helping people rise above unfortunate obstacles to help them reach a potential they didn't know they had within them. Yes, you have the potential to be a better version of yourself. It has always been there. It's the inner strength you haven't tapped into yet. Some of my specialties are helping individuals who struggle with: low-self esteem, relationship issues, PTSD, over-thinking, boundary setting, codependency, low-confidence, self-worth & perfectionism, high achiever's. Ask yourself this one question in this very moment, what's holding you back? Let's walk this journey together. You got this!

What typically surprises people is that I am the 11th of 13 children - all from the same parents. Growing up with so many siblings has given me a great opportunity to learn about family dynamics and effective discipline. My parents did a great job of maintaining a safe and well-behaved home, and I use their example as a template while also incorporating my own experience as a parent for working with families today. As for my approach to therapy, I use several different theories depending on the need of the client; however, my primary mode is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It just fits my personality. If you are looking for a therapist who focuses solely on your emotions and how you're feeling on any given day, then I will not be a good fit for you. On the other hand, if you're looking for a therapist who not only does all that but who will also listen to everything you say (as well as the meaning behind what you say) and then challenge your thinking habits to help you find more effective and productive thinking patterns, then I'm on board for that. I learned a long time ago that many clients do not want things "Sugar Coated", but rather prefer their therapist to be respectfully bold and blunt. If this is who you are looking for in a therapist, then let's get to work.
