My name is Yvette and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I received my Masters Degree from Webster University and have been practicing for over 10 years. I am a US Air Force Veteran which fuels my passion for working with veterans and active duty military personnel. I specialize in substance abuse and sexual trauma. Throughout my career I have had to opportunity to work various setting, including in-home, acute hospitalization and residential. Within these settings I have the opportunity to address: depression, anxiety, sexual trauma, anger management, parenting and addiction. Currently I am the assistant clinical Director at a juvenile program that specializes in rehabilitating youth with problem sexual behaviors. I assist with managing and developing a team of five therapists to help provide exceptional services for the program. I truly enjoy assisting others and extending my services to individuals that wish to seek therapy in the comfort of their own home.

I’m a therapist who believes people deserve a space where they do not have to filter, shrink themselves, or hold everything alone. I work with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship stress, emotional overwhelm, and major life transitions. My approach is genuine, collaborative, and individualized, with a focus on helping clients better understand themselves, reconnect with who they are beneath survival mode, and build a life that feels more manageable, authentic, and fulfilling.

Hi, I’m Trish. Life can feel really heavy at times. Whether it’s stress from work, changes in relationships, past experiences that still affect you, or simply feeling stuck, you don’t have to figure it all out on your own. I know how hard it can be to reach out for help. As someone who has utilized therapy myself, I understand how vulnerable it can feel to sit across from someone and share the parts of your life that may feel messy, complicated, or difficult to explain. My goal is to create a space where you can show up as your whole self, without judgment or the pressure to have it all figured out. I’m an open, compassionate, and neurodivergent-affirming therapist who believes therapy should feel human. I’ll listen, support you, and offer tools and new perspectives, while also gently challenging you when it can help you move toward your goals. We’ll work at a pace that feels manageable and meaningful for you. And while healing can involve some difficult conversations, I don’t believe therapy has to feel heavy all the time. I like to have fun, laugh, and make room for the lighter moments along the way. Mental wellness and healing are journeys, and I want you to have someone beside you who can hold space for the hard stuff while reminding you that there is still room for joy. My role is to walk alongside you as you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, navigate life’s challenges, and find your way back to feeling more like you.

Are you struggling with the pressures of life? Perhaps you compare yourself to others and wonder how they make it all look so easy and those perfect picture images on social media don't help. Perhaps you’ve had no motivation, no energy, or feel overwhelmed lately. You’ve found yourself struggling with feeling "stuck", self-doubt or lack of self-confidence. As far as anyone can tell, you’ve got a great life. But on the inside, you don't feel good enough; perhaps you struggle with past hurts, toxic relationships, never-ending thoughts, or the voice in your head is quick to remind you of all the ways you’re falling short. Imagine how it would feel to feel more confident without guilt or shame. Imagine enjoying a deeper connection with others with less conflict. Ready to step away from past hurts & quiet the inner critic so that you can feel excited & unafraid of new things? I collaborate with individuals to transform their stories. It is important to feel safe, so my style is down-to-earth, empathetic & infused with humor when appropriate. I can also incorporate Christian faith for clients who so desire. I offer LIMITED WEEKNIGHTS & no weekends appointments. Interested in getting started? Send me an email to get started.

Have you felt the pull to begin therapy but found the journey overwhelming or uncertain? You’re not alone — and you don’t have to walk it alone either. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I create a compassionate space for women, teens, and young adults who are ready to heal, grow, and rediscover their identity. Many of my clients are high-functioning, faith-filled, and deeply tired — carrying the weight of life transitions, unhealed wounds, and emotional overwhelm. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Strengths-Based, and Solution-Focused modalities, I help my clients explore what’s holding them back and move toward a life of clarity, peace, and purpose.

Starting therapy can feel overwhelming—especially if you’re worried about being vulnerable or judged. My goal is to create a space where you feel genuinely safe, supported, and accepted just as you are. At the same time, I gently help guide you toward growth and healing in a way that feels manageable and meaningful. I’ve worked with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, self-esteem concerns, family conflict, trauma, and the many challenges that can come up during adolescence and adulthood. Together, we’ll move at your pace, exploring tools and strategies that truly fit you so you can better understand yourself and feel more confident in handling life’s difficulties. I see this as a collaborative process—you don’t have to figure things out alone. As part of your team, I’ll support you in discovering what works best for you and in creating the changes you want to see in your life.

Welcome! I provide individual therapy to adults dealing with a variety of challenges including: anxiety, self-esteem, life transitions/adjustment issues, complex trauma, and attachment issues. Whether this is your first time seeking therapy or you have been in therapy before, it is important to choose a therapist that you feel connected to and has experience in treating the areas that align with your needs. Therapy is an intimate experience, a collaboration between you and the therapist. I take that role seriously and understand that to do my best work, I need to understand each client holistically. I feel like my biggest asset is the ability to see a client's strengths, empower them to achieve their goals, and support them throughout the therapeutic process. Therapy helps uncover strengths and learn new skills that will allow you to deal with the challenges that arise in life. A successful therapy experience does not mean a person is cured, it means the person has the inner and outer resources to deal with the ups and downs of life. My goal is to help you develop the skills necessary to successfully deal with life, on your own terms. With warmth, compassion, and a bit of humor, I aim to create a safe, supportive environment to help foster personal growth and healing.

Hello, my name is Takiyah Thomas Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida with 5 years of experience.

As your therapist I will always be on the lookout for strengths and empowering tools that I can use to keep you motivated to stay the course. Why? Because many times our maladaptive responses to our mental health symptoms form habits that require motivation and practice to unlearn.

We’ll also develop realistic coping strategies, strengthen problem-solving skills, and find ways to apply what we discuss in therapy to your everyday life.

I enjoy working with clients who are seeking strategies to manage their anxiety and depressive symptoms, because I've seen when they learn these strategies they're able to use them consistently for the other issues life brings.

Hi, I’m Abby, and I love supporting individuals who seem to have it all together on the outside, yet internally are navigating anxiety, overwhelm, stress, or a sense of disconnection. Many of the clients I work with are high-functioning and successful in different areas of life, but beneath the surface they may feel stuck in overthinking, people-pleasing, self-doubt, or patterns that no longer serve them. My approach is warm, intentional, and deeply personalized. I believe therapy is about more than learning coping skills—it’s about understanding yourself on a deeper level and creating meaningful, lasting change. Together, we’ll explore the underlying patterns shaping your experiences and work toward greater emotional clarity, resilience, and self-understanding. I have specialized training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and other evidence-based approaches. I view symptoms like anxiety not as something “wrong” with you, but as meaningful signals that deserve curiosity and compassion. I strive to help clients develop a healthier and more connected relationship with themselves. Therapy with me is collaborative, focused, and supportive while still allowing space for deeper healing and growth.

I’m a licensed therapist who strives to see families and parents learn new ways, techniques and strategies on how to cope with real life changes and see individuals learn about themselves and begin to process life challenges. I enjoy the traditional Florida lifestyle of exploring nature, the springs, the beaches and all the hiking trails and state parks Florida offers.

As a licensed clinical social worker and the founder of Reveal 2 Heal, I am dedicated to empowering women to navigate the complexities of trauma, anxiety, and depression. My mission is clear: to help you reveal the things that may be stopping your healing. In our work together, we’ll uncover what lies beneath the surface—those aspects of your life you may be avoiding—because I believe that true healing begins when we face what needs to be revealed.
