I believe that every person is a light in this world, and that healing begins with reconnecting with one’s inner strength, inherent worth, and higher purpose. While each person’s story is unique, we all face universal challenges—navigating a competitive world, understanding who we are, finding meaning, and adapting to change. When stress becomes overwhelming or unmanageable, reaching out for support is an important step toward resilience. My therapeutic approach is rooted in humanistic psychology, with an emphasis on personal growth, self-understanding, and thriving. While exploring the nature and impact of suffering is important, I think it is just as important to help clients develop practical strategies to restore balance, build insight, and move toward a more fulfilling life. I integrate techniques from cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), polyvagal theory, psychodynamic therapy, psychological "parts" work including Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), tailoring my approach to each individual’s needs. I bring over 10 years of experience supporting individuals across a variety of settings. My background includes working as an outpatient therapist in a community mental health clinic during the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as serving as a college counselor. During my graduate training, I worked in child welfare within abuse and neglect court systems. Earlier in my career, I facilitated tobacco cessation groups in a public health setting and began my work in the helping professions as a certified nursing assistant supporting individuals with developmental disabilities and elder adults. Throughout these experiences, I have remained deeply committed to helping others heal, grow, and thrive. Thank you for taking the time to learn about my approach. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!

This must begin, however, by developing that most important healthy relationship – the relationship one has with oneself.

My style is down-to-earth, warm, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a real conversation not a clinical evaluation so from day one, I focus on building a space where you can speak freely, without fear of judgment or pressure to have it all figured out. I tailor our work entirely to your needs. No two people are the same, and no two therapy journeys should be either. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, substance use, or a major life transition, I meet you exactly where you are and adjust my approach as you grow and change. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing blending techniques that are practical, evidence-based, and personalized to what works best for you. Together, we create a relaxed, open space where we can talk honestly about what has been weighing on you, explore the patterns behind it, and start to understand where they come from. But we don't stop at insight we focus on real, meaningful change. That means building practical tools and strategies you can actually use in your daily life, so that over time you begin to feel more steady, more capable, and more in control of your own story. My clients often tell me they feel understood in a way they haven't before. That matters deeply to me because feeling truly heard is where healing begins.

Hi, I’m Dan Hoefling (he/him), a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, trauma specialist, and the founder of New Chapter Mental Health Counseling. I provide active, collaborative virtual therapy for adults across New York, Florida, and Vermont who feel stuck in repetitive loops of anxiety, childhood trauma, or intense emotional triggers like anger. My clients often describe me as patient, deeply listening, and grounded, but I am not the kind of therapist who just nods along silently while you vent. My approach is highly active and integrative, blending Internal Family Systems parts work with somatic, body-centered awareness and mindfulness tools. I believe that your current struggles, whether that looks like a harsh inner critic, an automatic defensive reaction, or a constant state of physical restlessness, are simply survival strategies that your system built to protect you. Outside of my clinical credentials as a Level 2 Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, my background in yoga and meditation heavily shapes how I work. I don't see you as a list of symptoms to be fixed, but as a whole person capable of deep resilience. Together, we work to safely step out of survival mode, replace self-blame with genuine curiosity, and help you author your next chapter.

Hi All! I am from a small town off of San Diego, California but spent most of my career working with people who lived in some of the more impoverished areas of Los Angeles. My speciality was/is working with highly at-risk youth and families and I loved doing it; I think I got as much from the experience as did my clients. Personally, I grew up as a fairly good athlete and could often be found on a tennis court, running & cycling around town and even at the gym. I love animals and I have two big dogs and two cats. I am spiritual and attend church regularly. I love the beach and ocean; I have recently moved to Sarasota and am truly enjoying it. As most therapists do, I have my own history of fighting through some emotionally difficult times and am beyond happy to tell you that with some assistance, I managed to come out the other side and am now quite well and happy today! Professionally, I have had several careers including, Federal & Local law enforcement and driving as FEDEX Delivery driver while getting my Masters in Marriage and Family Therapy. After several years of completing the required 3,000 hours of hands-on service, I passed the exams and ultimately became a fully Licensed Marriage Family Therapist. My practice has provided me with the opportunity to work with persons with ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar, Schizophrenia and more. I am trained and qualified to provide mental health treatment to kids, families, couples and individual adults. I love my job; I love helping people. It would be an honor if you would consider entrusting me to assist you with anything from your smaller troubles to bigger issues and beyond; I believe that we can achieve great success together.

I believe meaningful change comes from understanding not only what we do, but why we do it. My practice is grounded primarily in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which focuses on identifying the deeper emotional, relational, and unconscious patterns that shape how we experience ourselves, others, and the world. Many of the struggles people face today, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, addiction, and recurring life patterns, often have roots in earlier experiences that continue to influence present-day thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we work to understand these patterns so they no longer have to dictate your life. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I aim to help clients develop greater emotional insight, strengthen their capacity to regulate difficult emotions, improve relationships, and build a more cohesive and authentic sense of self. I believe lasting psychological change occurs when we understand the underlying dynamics that drive our reactions instead of simply learning to manage them. While psychodynamic therapy serves as the foundation of my work, I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when it is clinically appropriate. CBT can provide practical strategies for challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, reducing symptoms, and building healthier behavioral habits while complementing the deeper exploratory work of psychodynamic therapy. I strive to create a therapeutic relationship that is thoughtful, collaborative, and emotionally attuned. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, personality difficulties, relationship concerns, or simply feel stuck in repeating the same patterns, therapy provides an opportunity to better understand yourself, develop greater resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist with over 20 years of experience working with diverse populations. I have worked in a variety of settings providing mental health care to individuals and families. Open and honest therapy is what I offer. No matter the issue, your feelings are of value to you and sometimes this is hard to decipher what you are dealing with on your own. Getting through a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars, you have to let go at some point to move forward. If you change nothing, nothing will change and I try to provide clarity to issues that may be troubling. Physical health and mental health work hand in hand. Therapy can assist with understanding that a balanced life begins with a healthy mind. Providing a safe place for feelings is a goal for providing therapeutic intervention that helps you feel comfortable.

I work with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, or unsure of their next step in life. Many of my clients are navigating stress, ADHD, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, or major transitions — whether that’s entering adulthood, changing careers, coping with loss, or trying to rediscover purpose. My approach is genuine, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Therapy with me feels like a real conversation — professional, ethical, and structured, but also warm, human, and sometimes even lighthearted when it helps people feel more at ease. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel safe, understood, and supported, not judged or rushed. I blend evidence-based tools like CBT with practical problem-solving strategies that fit your real life, not just a textbook. Together, we focus on building insight, confidence, and skills you can actually use outside of session — so therapy becomes something you rely on less over time, not more. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or ready to make a change but unsure where to start, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’d be honored to support you as you take the next step forward.

Welcome! I'm Cindy. Taking the step to explore therapy is an act of courage and self-care. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just curious about personal growth, therapy can be a space to pause, reflect, and find strategies that actually work for you. Becoming a therapist came naturally. Growing up, I was the friend people turned to for a listening ear and nonjudgmental perspective. I loved helping others sort through their thoughts and feelings, always believing they are the experts of their own lives. That approach guides my work with every client. As a first-generation American born to Caribbean parents, I understand the unique pressures and strengths of the African diaspora. I’m passionate about destigmatizing mental health care, serving historically underserved communities, and helping people tap into their resilience to feel more confident and empowered. In our sessions, we’ll explore challenges like anxiety, depression, life transitions, or self-care struggles and build practical strategies that fit your life. I focus on helping clients set boundaries, communicate assertively, and reclaim a sense of control and purpose. Therapy is a space to reflect, grow, and create the life you want. If you’re ready to take that step, I’m here to walk alongside you.

I’m a mental health therapist with more than thirteen years of experience, and my practice is grounded in honoring each client as a whole person. From the moment you enter session, you are respected, appreciated, and offered a space where you can speak freely and disclose only what feels right for you. Safety, dignity, and autonomy guide every part of our work together. Clinically, I draw from evidenced based approaches such as ERP, CBT, TRAP/TRAC, mindful‑living practices, and intentional space for processing — blending structure with openness so clients can explore both the practical and the deeply personal. My greatest strengths as a therapist are working with individuals struggling with OCD (you don't have to be afraid to speak your intrusive thoughts in my sessions. I am trained to understand the difference of ego dystonic intrusive thoughts that don't align with your true values and beliefs), Panic Attacks, Generalized Anxiety, Depression., aging and life transitions. Individuals struggling with eating disorders will be given referrals for treatment of this disorder. If chosen by the client, I can also help integrate Christian beliefs into treatment in a way that supports their healing, values, and sense of meaning. My role is to walk alongside you, offering evidence‑based care that aligns with who you are and how you want to grow.

My professional goals are to empower individuals by helping them build self-confidence, develop self-love, and gain practical tools to effectively manage life challenges and symptoms.

I am a bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client's unique needs. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and a systemic perspective, recognizing that our experiences are shaped by our relationships, family systems, and environment. In Narrative Therapy, I believe that the problem is the problem, not the person. Together, we work to separate individuals from the challenges they face, helping them develop more empowering and meaningful life stories. I also integrate mindfulness-based interventions to help clients increase self-awareness, manage difficult emotions, and remain grounded during times of stress. My goal is to meet clients where they are, providing a safe, nonjudgmental space where they feel heard, respected, and supported throughout their therapeutic journey. Soy una Terapeuta , bilingüe que trabaja con adultos que enfrentan ansiedad, depresión, dificultades en las relaciones, transiciones de vida, estrés, trauma y problemas de autoestima. Mi enfoque terapéutico es colaborativo, compasivo y adaptado a las necesidades únicas de cada persona. Principalmente utilizo la Terapia Cognitivo-Conductual, la Terapia Narrativa y un enfoque sistémico, entendiendo que nuestras experiencias están influenciadas por nuestras relaciones, la dinámica familiar y el contexto en el que vivimos. Desde la Terapia Narrativa, creo que el problema es el problema; la persona no es el problema. Juntos exploramos cómo los desafíos han influido en su vida y trabajamos para construir una historia más saludable, resiliente y alineada con sus valores. También incorporo técnicas de mindfulness (atención plena) para ayudar a mis clientes a desarrollar mayor conciencia del momento presente, regular sus emociones y afrontar el estrés de una manera más efectiva.

Together, we'll identify what's contributing to your struggles, build on your strengths, and develop practical tools that support healing, resilience, and meaningful change.

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need. For example, your selected specialty, Depression, is filtering therapists in Florida that work with patients with similar concerns.

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
