Hi, I’m CJ Backer—a licensed marriage and family therapist who walks alongside people as they navigate the deeper questions of identity, purpose, and emotional well-being. So many of us move through life carrying the weight of expectations—what we should be, how we should feel, who we should become. My work is about helping you gently untangle from all of that, and reconnect with the person you are underneath the roles, pressure, and performance. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or just that quiet feeling that something’s off—I offer a space where you can slow down, reflect, and begin to heal. In our work together, you’ll find a space that’s compassionate and real—where you’re not just seen through the lens of symptoms or labels, but as a whole person with a story that matters. I integrate evidence-based practices like CBT, DBT, and motivational interviewing, but always with the understanding that tools only work when they’re paired with trust, empathy, and authenticity. Ultimately, my goal is to help you reconnect with who you are—not just who the world told you to be—so you can move through life with more clarity, courage, and self-trust.

Hello! I am a LCSW licensed in Florida. I have 21 years experience in the field and 14 years post graduate from USF.

I'm a mental health therapist who is passionate about helping individuals gain deeper insight into themselves and create lasting, meaningful change in their lives. My work is grounded primarily in psychodynamic therapy, which means I focus on helping clients uncover and understand unconscious patterns, early relational experiences, and internal conflicts that influence how they think, feel, and behave today. I believe that by bringing these deeper dynamics into awareness, people can begin to heal from past wounds and build more fulfilling lives and relationships. In addition to psychodynamic therapy, I integrate tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support clients in managing present-day symptoms and building practical coping skills. CBT allows us to identify and challenge distorted thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. We work together to reshape those thoughts and develop healthier behaviors that promote emotional well-being. ACT helps clients relate differently to their internal experiences by fostering mindfulness, acceptance, and alignment with personal values, encouraging them to take meaningful action even in the face of difficult emotions. My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each individual’s unique needs and goals. Whether someone is struggling with relationship issues, anxiety, self-doubt, or a sense of feeling stuck, I work to create a safe space where they feel seen, heard, and supported. Together, we explore the roots of their struggles while also building the tools they need to thrive in the present and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Do you feel like you need to work out some of your thoughts and feelings? Are you not sure where to start? Hi! I'm Chelsea and I know that feeling all too well. In my therapy practice, I utilize an egalitarian approach while working with people. This means that the therapist and the client are the experts of their own experience. I believe we each bring preconceptions and values into the relationship and these core values can help strengthen trust. I’m, in general, curious about people and who they are; so I LOVE hearing about interests or hobbies or anything that relates to a person’s individuality. I incorporate harm reduction and motivational interviewing within my work. I believe that people are conduits to change and change is dependent on motivation and readiness. I think it is okay if someone is not ready or is not sure if they are ready; we all start somewhere! I enjoy watching people evolve and grow into their authentic selves; which includes knowing who they are and what they value. I value self-awareness and introspection, for myself, and want to help others on their path to their wellness.
