I believe you can change the story of your life by having a "safe space" to share your feelings and process what hurts the most. Transforming the way you think about your problems and allowing yourself to change your perspective, could be liberating in your healing process to a better you. Expect a warm and non-judgmental environment to overcome life challenges.

I have been a clinical mental health therapist and behavior analyst for children and adults. I have treated and helped people with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, problems with motivation and other life issues unique to each person. I have worked in schools, outpatient practices and homes. My experience has led to form a unique and diverse system for identifying and assessing challenging behavior patterns. I value the human experience and understand that just because a problem is identified, change is not automatic. Understanding the patterns that maintain behavior and thinking patterns can take asking the right questions and exploring unique alternatives to those patterns.

Hi there! Are you feeling like life is just… a lot right now? Maybe anxiety has you overthinking everything (including whether this profile is “the one”), or depression is making it hard to get out of bed, let alone enjoy the things you once loved. Perhaps you’re stuck in a cycle of low self-esteem, doubting your worth, or wrestling with relationships that feel more complicated than they should. Whatever brought you here, I want you to know: you don’t have to figure it out alone. As your therapist, I’ll provide a space where you can exhale, unpack what’s weighing you down, and work toward clarity and growth—without judgment, but with a good dose of honesty and even some laughter along the way. My approach is practical and down-to-earth, combining proven therapeutic strategies with a warm, human touch. Life doesn’t come with a guidebook, but together, we can tackle the tough stuff and start building the kind of life you actually want. Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you because you’re not broken. It’s about empowering you to navigate life’s challenges with confidence, healthier perspectives, and tools that work for you. So, what do you say? Let’s take this step together—your future self will thank you! Click that button to book a session, and let’s get started. You deserve this.

Hi, I am Dr. Rolanda Harris. I hold a Doctorate in Social Work and am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Alabama and Florida, as well as a Qualified Supervisor in Florida. I am the owner of Intentional Counseling and Consulting, LLC. I have 24 years of experience supporting and empowering individuals to navigate and cope with life's challenges. I am an intentional counselor who proactively plans my interactions and interventions based on a clear understanding of your situation and desired outcomes. I seek to understand your needs, strengths, and values to develop a tailored plan that aligns with your goals and promotes positive change. Intention is more than wishful thinking; it is willful direction. As an intentional counselor, I have had the privilege of working with chronically and terminally ill patients and their families, supporting them as they manage the emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual impact of their illness. I have experience working with college students needing support adjusting to college life, building confidence, navigating social situations, and managing stress and anxiety. I have spent years walking with bereaved individuals as they process intense emotions, attempt to understand the grieving process, and find meaning after loss. It has been an honor to support elderly individuals managing grief, the fear of mortality and aging, adapting to retirement, addressing social isolation, and experiencing a range of mental health challenges. I have also had the pleasure of supporting single mothers as they navigate the emotional impact of motherhood, mental health issues, financial stress, and building a support system. In my practice, I do not solely rely on one specific theory but may draw upon different theoretical perspectives. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapies, Reminiscence Therapy, and Grief Therapy.

There are times in all of our lives when we experience challenging emotional situations. When these situations arrive we can benefit from the support of a person outside of our inner circle. Whether you are struggling with an crisis or change in your life, or even if you are just feeling mildly upset, it can take a toll on your life. Everyone can benefit from psychotherapy. No problem is too minor, severe, or unusual to be explored and healed. I approach my clients with care so that together we can built a plan that will help them achieve their goals.

If you cannot look inward don't see me. If you cannot provide details about what you want in session, don't see me. If you cannot generate goals for our meetings, do not see me. I'm Steven Mollura, the therapist who brings enlightenment by exploring the darkness. Together we face what you fear most, reclaim wholeness, and step fully into truth. Direct, no-nonsense mental health service that helps you break free from limiting beliefs and step into the life you deserve. This isn’t about managing symptoms. It’s about ending the war inside you. For those who want peace within and without. If you are looking for someone to hold your hand while you let the world beat you to death, look elsewhere. I'm not for you. If you're ready to walk into hell, I'm ready to walk right next to you. The first step is yours. Are you coming?

Therapy offers a powerful path for positive transformation, and I am honored to walk alongside you. With over a decade of experience as a licensed psychotherapist, I specialize in supporting women navigating trauma, stress, relationship issues, demanding careers and significant life transitions. It has been my life's work to uplift and empower women. Clients often describe my approach as warm and conversational - yet directive. I believe in the effectiveness of weekly sessions for achieving lasting progress. I have additional experience in Feminist Psychology and recovery from high-control groups (i.e. cults, religion, controlling relationships) which can complement our work if relevant. I am also a proud member of the LGBT community.
