6 therapists in Florida matching your needs

Hello! I'll get right to the point - these are the main issues I specialize in working with: 1. TRAUMA/PTSD. This includes all types of trauma (physical, emotional, psychological) and residual trauma symptoms (OCD, anxiety, depression). 2. SELF and RELATIONSHIP ISSUES, including: a. CODEPENDENCY (i.e. people pleasing, inability to say no, fear of upsetting others, lack of assertiveness, chronic feelings of obligation). b. PSYCHOLOGICAL ABUSE (manipulative friends, family, romantic partners, controlling relationships, cults, abusive churches, workplace bullying, hazing, sexual coercion, undue influence, toxic people of all kinds). c. IDENTITY CONCERNS (lack of purpose/identity, career and higher education concerns, narcissism, former cult members, ). 3. SLEEP ISSUES: Chronic Insomnia, Nightmare Management, and help with CPAP/Obstructive Sleep Apnea challenges. I also enjoy doing dream interpretation. Do any of these describe you or your situation? If so, I'd love to meet you and talk about how we can work together to overcome your struggles. Feel free to browse through my profile and if you feel so inclined, make an appointment so we can work toward restoring balance to your world again. PLEASE NOTE: Individual adults only (18+). I do not work with minors or couples. Please be sure to complete the Intake Form before our first appointment. Failure to do so will require us to spend our first session completing it together.

Trained as a psychologist (Ph.D. from Cornell University). Some 20 years later I earned a specialized graduate degree in Psychotherapy from Nova SE University, the only nationally accredited program in all of Florida. I am a fully licensed therapist in the State of Florida. I have taught psychology at Princeton, Tulane, Cornell, and Harvard Medical School. We will spend most of our time creating solutions, instead of analyzing problems. So often, therapy gets bogged down in the endless exploration of problems. Problems are the results of behaviors that didn't work for you in the past. Solutions flow from changes that will work for you starting right now. Solutions make your life better. They bring joy and peace to your life.

Welcome! And congratulations on taking this courageous big step towards improving your life. I know that is no small feat. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who received my Masters Degree from NYU in 2003. I have worked in various healthcare settings with individuals, groups and couples of all ages. I work with adults struggling with common issues like stress, interpersonal conflict, low self-esteem, feeling overwhelmed and coping with loss. A lot of my clinical experience is with older populations struggling with issues of aging, retirement, finding new purpose and meaning in life, areas of loss and living with chronic conditions. I utilize a broad range of mind & body approaches to help uncover behaviors & patterns in thinking that are reinforcing negative feelings that are preventing you from living your best life. I am right by your side every step of the way working collaboratively to address your individual challenges in the context of your unique life to move towards self compassion, self discovery and healing.

Hi! I am a Clinical Psychologist. I received my bachelor's degree from Spelman College, and I received my master's and doctoral degrees from the University of Mississippi. I have been practicing for 9 years. Take a moment to acknowledge you've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns they may have. One focus area is helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

My name is Madiane Perez. I have been a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida since 2011. I also hold a Behavior Analysis Certification (BCBA) since 2015. I have worked with different populations in Miami, Florida for the last 14 years. In addition, I have clinical experience in more than one country and a multicultural approach. My educational background is in Clinical Psychology. Although most of my clinical research and experience has been with children and adolescents, I have experience with young adults and adults in general. I have extensively studied and work with anxiety, depression, weight and self-image issues, acculturation and other sensitive areas for adults. Due to my cultural background and life experiences, I am open and sensitive to multiple cultural and educational backgrounds. I have been working with minorities and emigrants in multicultural cities. I am also comfortable treating severe behavioral difficulties for children and adolescents such as ADHD, ODD, ASD and others due to my vast experience in ABA. I am able to combine multiple therapeutic approaches to better address clients' difficulties and help them reach their true potential.
