Are you having a difficult time getting through your day because your mind is wondering or you feel so down that you do not have any motivation? Do you feel confused because your mood is up and down? It may seem that it is never going to stop and I will always have these issues but I want you to know there is help out there and I can help you learn what it is that you are going through and teach you skills that help manage the feelings so you have more great days than low days. I will add some humor into our sessions because sometimes our emotions get to be too much and we need to just laugh once in a while. I love mixing different therapies because therapy techniques are not cookie cutter and one technique may work for one person but not another person. We will find what works best for you. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the concerns you have that are holding you back. Let's work together.

I received a Master of Arts in Counseling Psychology from the University of North Florida and have 10 + years’ experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Most of my experience is dealing with women’s issues and how voice is found in a paternalistic society. I use a Family Systems lens as we bring our family with us even when we come as individuals. In my work with clients, I create a space of openness and acceptance as to what is present in the client’s life. I believe that clients have an innate ability to create healing for themselves, and I shepherd that process. I use a Mindfulness-Based Awareness practice and a participatory approach - to create solutions. As a client commits themselves to the process, they can expect increased awareness and see themselves and their issues more clearly. This awareness oftentimes brings with it a heightened ability to solve issues that are creating roadblocks.

As a therapist I believe that anxiety, depression, grief, chronic pain, and addiction hold profound lessons and opportunities for growth. Too often, we push away our deepest hurts, hoping symptoms will simply vanish. This can lead us to seek refuge in unhealthy coping mechanisms like substance use or isolation. However, awareness of our struggles marks the beginning of a transformative healing journey. By embracing the wisdom within us and connecting to something greater, we can learn to flow with life’s challenges. I want to invite you on a healing journey that allows you to grow, connect with self and others. I use CBT, NLP, Genograms, Family constellations and Brain Spotting to release, anxiety, grief, trauma and depression. These techniques help me look at the specific patterns in the family system and helps the client gain awareness of unconscious generational patterns that may be limiting clients in their relationships, health, or career. I’m here to help you navigate this path. Together, we can create a safe space for you to tune into your head, heart, and body. You’ll learn to: Increase and improve your overall health Develop empowering beliefs that foster freedom and choice. You will learn to set compelling and achievable goals and look forward to the future with enthusiasm.

Hi there, I'm Kathleen. Do you feel stressed by life and seek peace and healing? Are you struggling to keep up with your relationships, work and health? Is it hard to be kind to yourself? I work with adults of all ages for INDIVIDUAL therapy. At this time I am not scheduling appointments with children, couples, or families. Together, we can identify what's not working and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I also integrate faith and recovery principles in our work together. Whether you're dealing with feeling overwhelmed, have relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the thoughts and habits holding you back. Let's work together!

Hi, I'm Sharon, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I received my Bachelor's degree from Tulane University, a Master's degree in Social Work from Barry University, and have been practicing in a variety of settings for over 30 years. Our journey in this world can sometimes present us with confusion and challenges. Making the choice to engage in therapy is most definitely a life-changing decision. Whether this is your first time reaching out or you've decided to return to therapy, I'm glad your making the right choice in finding your peace and taking care of you! I work with adults who often feel stuck, depressed, anxious, overwhelmed and burnt out, or dealing with trauma, distressing life situations/transitions, grief, or complicated relationship issues, and have found difficulty in adapting. I enjoy helping clients build coping strategies to address stressors and conditions impacting health and happiness, as well as exploring and resolving past histories impacting current functioning. I've worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings addressing mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, abuse, dissociative disorders, and eating disorders. I'd like to offer you a safe space in a warm and inclusive environment as we work toward your healing!

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Florida rather than a city like Tampa?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Florida from Miami to Jacksonville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Florida.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on Older Adults?

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, Older Adults, is filtering therapists in Florida that work with patients with similar concerns.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

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.

What to expect during your first session?

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.
