I am a licensed mental health counselor, based in Florida, with a Master's degree in professional counseling, emphasis on trauma, marriage and family, special populations, consulting and school counseling from Webster University, Bachelor's degree in criminology and human services from Saint Leo University and an Associate's degree in Paralegal Studies from the College of Central Florida. I am a Florida Supreme Court certified dependency mediator and credentialed instructor for the Department of Children and Families. I have 10 years experience as a counselor, and enjoy working with persons who have experienced ACEs (Adverse Childhood Experiences) and other traumas.

I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach. While uncomfortable feelings might be a commonality (especially in today's world), I believe we are all individuals who learn, experience, and react to situations differently. One thing I know for sure, if everything was going "great" chances are you would not be reading this bio right now. BRAVO to you for taking this monumental step and investing in yourself!!! Hi, I'm Masha Andreoni, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with 14+ years of professional/educational experience and 49+ years of lived experience. A majority of my work experience has been spent working with Veterans and Active Duty Reservists focusing on post deployment issues, substance use/abuse, and military sexual trauma. Today, I work with individuals/groups/families within a multitude of populations. Most importantly, I do not believe that individuals fit snuggly into a particular mental health "box." For example, if diagnosed with PTSD... there is a good chance that anxiety, depression, insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present. If struggling with addictions...anxiety, depression insomnia, relationship difficulties, work-related issues (etc.) may be present (you get it). My focus/goal is to understand where you are coming from, what you hope to achieve, avoid making any particular judgements/labels, and work together as we embrace this journey of solution focused change and betterment. While I can take the time to tell you how my approach is warm, motivating, understanding, open....in the end, this is for you to decide. I can however assure you that regardless of diplomas achieved, I never stop pursuing education in this ever-changing field/world. I am here to be of service. With me comes my personality, knowledge, humor (when appropriate), and respect! Truly looking forward to working with you.

Hello and welcome. I’m a bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over a decade of experience supporting individuals through some of life’s most difficult moments. If you’ve arrived here feeling overwhelmed, lost, or exhausted, I’m truly glad you’re here. Navigating emotions can be draining, and it’s easy to feel discouraged, but you don’t have to lose hope. Whether you’re dealing with stress, grief, anxiety, lack of motivation, emotional numbness, self‑criticism, doubt, guilt, or frustration, there is a path forward. I offer Christian counseling for clients who prefer a faith‑based approach, and I also provide fully secular therapy for those who do not. Your values and beliefs guide the direction of our work, and I’m committed to meeting you exactly where you are. My approach is grounded in realistic, practical strategies that help you reconnect with yourself, rebuild confidence, and rediscover joy. You already carry the strength needed to grow into the best version of yourself. If you’re willing to take that step, I’m honored to walk alongside you and witness your transformation.

You are capable, dependable, and often the person others rely on. But constant stress, worry, and responsibilities can leave you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, chronic stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, work-life imbalance, and difficulty setting boundaries. I also specialize in supporting professionals, caregivers, leaders, and high-achieving adults experiencing burnout and high-functioning anxiety. My approach is supportive, practical, and solution-focused, helping you gain clarity, develop healthier coping strategies, and create meaningful change. With over 14 years of clinical experience across healthcare systems, private practice, and community settings, I understand how prolonged pressure and responsibility can quietly impact emotional well-being. My approach is warm, supportive, and grounded in helping clients slow down, reconnect with themselves, strengthen healthy boundaries, and build a more sustainable and balanced way of living — not just surviving.

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.

I am licensed with over 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, LGBT-related issues, relationship issues, & family conflicts. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Welcome. I'm Tanya, Owner of Beyond Blessed Consulting & Counseling LLC (in partnership with Grow) specializing in Christian Counseling, Schema Therapy, Childhood Trauma, Abuse Recovery, Anxiety, and Inner Child Healing Work. I'm here to help you feel seen, heard, and supported. Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or weighed down by past experiences? Do you find yourself repeating patterns you’re ready to break—or struggling to cope with daily stress, trauma, or emotional pain? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate this on your own. My clients often describe me as warm, compassionate, intuitive, and deeply present. They’ve said things like, "She helps me think in ways I never have before," and "Working with Tanya has been life-changing—it saved my life." What sets my approach apart is the strong, trusting connection I build with my clients. That therapeutic bond is the foundation of the meaningful work we’ll do together. I take an eclectic, client-centered approach to therapy—drawing from multiple evidence-based methods to tailor your care to your unique needs. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Mindfulness, Somatic Experiencing, and Schema Therapy, among others. Our work together will focus on: Gaining insight into patterns and beliefs that no longer serve you Learning healthy ways to cope with stress, anxiety, or trauma Building resilience and emotional regulation skills Processing pain and fostering healing in a safe, nonjudgmental space Creating sustainable change for a more empowered, fulfilling life Therapy can be life-changing—and it starts with a conversation. I’d be honored to support you on your path toward healing and growth. ***Please note the need to reach out for special instructions if you are seeking Couples Counseling. There are also several areas outside of my scope. If in doubt please reach out before booking. Thanks.

Hi and welcome! I am trained as a psychotherapist and received my Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from St. Thomas University in Miami, Florida. I have over fifteen years of clinical experience and I specialize in trauma, family systems, addiction and LGBTQ+ issues. I am an EMDR practitioner and a Florida Board Approved Supervisor for mental health counselors and marriage and family therapists seeking licensure.

Hi! My name is Desiree, and I'm the founder and owner of Light at the End Counseling Services, LLC. As a mental health therapist in the state of Florida, I specialize in working with adults, children, and teens struggling with anxiety and stress management. I also see individuals who struggle with self-esteem, relationships, and family issues. My style of counseling is characterized by a kind and direct manner, combined with compassion, in a culturally sensitive context. I am also a certified school counselor. My past work enhanced my professional experience as an educator in St. Lucie County and as a dependency case manager for The Department of Children and Families (DCF). I graduated with honors from Webster University with a Master of Arts Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I returned to graduate school to receive my Education Specialist Degree in School Counseling from Florida Atlantic University, graduating with honors. I was born and raised in Florida and enjoy spending time with my family at the beach, especially during those hot summer days!

What typically surprises people is that I am the 11th of 13 children - all from the same parents. Growing up with so many siblings has given me a great opportunity to learn about family dynamics and effective discipline. My parents did a great job of maintaining a safe and well-behaved home, and I use their example as a template while also incorporating my own experience as a parent for working with families today. As for my approach to therapy, I use several different theories depending on the need of the client; however, my primary mode is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It just fits my personality. If you are looking for a therapist who focuses solely on your emotions and how you're feeling on any given day, then I will not be a good fit for you. On the other hand, if you're looking for a therapist who not only does all that but who will also listen to everything you say (as well as the meaning behind what you say) and then challenge your thinking habits to help you find more effective and productive thinking patterns, then I'm on board for that. I learned a long time ago that many clients do not want things "Sugar Coated", but rather prefer their therapist to be respectfully bold and blunt. If this is who you are looking for in a therapist, then let's get to work.

BROKEN CRAYONS STILL COLOR! And I am living proof of that! Trauma, mistakes, bad decisions, regrets....none of it defines who we TRULY are inside. These experiences help us to grow stronger and learn more about ourselves in the long run. Growth and healing is what it's all about. Hi! I'm Sabrina. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 20 years of working with children, adults, and families. I bring that experience to the therapy room. I have a high emotional intelligence, and I believe that EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION is a SUPERPOWER!! I'm an advocate for family preservation and women's empowerment. Women play central roles in nurturing families and strengthening communities. However, they can lose themselves while caring for others. I love to help women prioritize their own self-care needs to help them be the best version of themselves when they show up for others. Let me remind you of who you are! I especially enjoy working with teenagers and helping to bridge the communication gap within the family unit that often shows up as children get older. I am Christian and I have a wealth of experience with African American families and am LGBTQ+ friendly. I offer a solution focused approach to therapy. Solution-Focused Brief Therapy empowers clients to own their abilities in solving life’s problems and recognize their strengths. Rather than traditional psychotherapy that focuses on how a problem was derived, SFT allows for a goal-oriented focus to problem-solving. I am available in the late afternoons/evenings, and I am accepting new clients.

I am a licensed therapist with 34 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges. Married for 49 years, I am blessed with three grown children who continue to inspire me. My approach to counseling is grounded in a person-centered philosophy that values empathy, acceptance, and respect, while also maintaining healthy boundaries that support growth and accountability. I believe each individual has the capacity to find their own unique path toward healing and purpose, and my role is to walk alongside them as they discover it. Drawing from decades of professional experience and a lifetime of personal relationships, I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and values. My goal is not to direct or dictate, but to guide and encourage, helping each person gain clarity, develop resilience, and move toward the life they were meant to live.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges with resilience and hope. I specialize in working with children, teens, and young adults facing anxiety, depression, stress, or major transitions. Beyond my clinical work, I host conversations and speak on topics where mental health intersects with everyday life, relationships, and faith creating safe spaces for people to feel understood and inspired. My approach is warm, practical, and collaborative. I believe healing comes from being fully seen, supported, and equipped with tools that make lasting change possible.

Welcome! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping individuals find clarity, healing, and balance through genuine connection and understanding. My approach to therapy is simple yet powerful: I meet you where you are. Every person’s journey is unique, and my role is to create a safe, compassionate space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions freely—without judgment. In our sessions, you can expect a conversational, down-to-earth style that focuses on building trust and collaboration. I believe that meaningful change happens when you feel truly seen and heard. Together, we’ll work to uncover patterns, strengthen coping skills, and move toward the goals that matter most to you. I often integrate cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and solution-focused strategies to help you gain practical tools while deepening self-awareness. I specialize in supporting adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Whether you’re seeking relief from overwhelming emotions or simply want to reconnect with yourself, therapy can be a powerful step toward growth. As a first-generation Latina therapist, I value cultural identity, authenticity, and the importance of creating a space that honors all parts of who you are. My hope is for you to leave each session feeling supported, understood, and empowered to take the next step in your healing journey. You don’t have to go through it alone. I’m here to walk beside you—one conversation at a time.

Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I obtained both my Bachelor's and Master's degree Social Work at Florida International University. I have over five years of experience helping teens, adults, and families in need of mental health services and/or medical/case management counseling. I am the owner of Forevermore Counseling Services, LLC, licensed in FL, IL, SC, and VA with the pursuit of more states, and utilizes empirical based interventions geared to your needs.

I’m Diana Ries, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience in counseling and healthcare. I offer a compassionate, direct, and results-focused approach that helps clients get to the root of emotional and relational struggles. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space, provide practical tools, and help clients leave with clarity, confidence, and hope in healing.

I'm so glad you're here! I'm an LICSW with over 20 years of experience working with a wide range of clients. My background includes extensive experience serving children, teens, young adults, parents, and families in an outpatient setting. I bring a casual, down to earth approach to therapy with a focus on making the process feel approachable and positive. Showing up as you are is the only thing you need to work well with me. If you're someone who is feeling hesitant to start therapy for yourself or your child, or you’ve struggled to find a therapist who is a good fit; know that my first priority is to help make it feel comfortable, natural and so much less daunting than you might be thinking. Just book a session and show up. Leap and the net will appear! A little more about me: I'm a Minnesota native currently living in Florida. I spend a lot of my time as a sports mom on the sidelines at soccer and volleyball games, watching professional hockey (especially the MN Wild!), and being hopelessly bad at gardening in Florida.

I’m Joseph Contes, but many call me “Joe”, and if you want you can too. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Qualified Supervisor, and founder of Crosscurrent Health. My approach to therapy is grounded, thoughtful, and collaborative, with a focus on helping people feel understood while building practical tools for lasting change. I work with children ages 8 and up, adolescents, adults, and families navigating anxiety, trauma, emotional overwhelm, identity development, relationship concerns, and life transitions. Over the years, I have worked across a wide range of clinical settings including crisis services, emergency psychiatry, community mental health, correctional environments, and higher education. Those experiences have shaped the way I approach therapy today: calm, adaptable, and centered on meeting people where they are without judgment. I understand that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I believe therapy works best when it feels like a steady, genuine partnership rather than a one-size-fits-all process. My work integrates evidence-based approaches including CBT, CPT, TF-CBT, and family-focused interventions while remaining flexible to each person’s needs, strengths, and goals. I also provide LGBTQIA+ affirming care and strive to create a space where clients feel emotionally safe, respected, and empowered to explore their experiences openly. At the heart of my work is the belief that growth happens when clarity meets support. Whether someone is working through past experiences, managing current stressors, or trying to reconnect with themselves and others, my goal is to help them move forward with greater confidence, resilience, and steadiness through life’s crosscurrents.

Hi, I’m Susan—a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Addictions Professional, and Substance Abuse Professional. I hold a master’s in Counseling Psychology from the University of West Florida and have been working in the mental health and substance abuse field since 2009 (licensed since 2012). My approach is grounded in empathy, active listening, and real partnership. I work as hard as you do to help you return to your best self. I believe lasting change happens between sessions—so I give you practical tools and support, but the real healing comes from what you do with them. I’ve worked in private practice, addiction clinics, homeless veteran services, military family counseling, and the county jail. Outside of work, I enjoy walking, biking, swimming, travel, cooking, gardening, and time with loved ones.

Hello, and welcome. My name is Katherine Wentworth, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Master Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) with more than 10 years of experience helping individuals navigate life's challenges and achieve meaningful, lasting change. Throughout my career, I have worked with adults, older adults, children and families facing a variety of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use disorders, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, stress management, and life transitions. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to each client's unique needs, strengths, and goals. I am trained in a variety of evidence-based clinical interventions, including Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and other trauma-informed therapeutic approaches. These modalities allow me to support clients in processing difficult experiences, developing healthy coping skills, and building resilience. I believe that healing occurs within a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship. My goal is to empower clients to gain insight, overcome obstacles, and create healthier, more fulfilling lives. Seeking help is a courageous first step, and I am honored to walk alongside my clients on their journey toward healing, growth, and recovery.

In my private practice, I work with individuals and couples. Treatment is unique for each client and depends on your needs and goals. The philosophy that guides my practice is the unwavering belief that people have a limitless potential to heal and grow. It is my goal to help you recognize and realize your abilities. Positive change occurs through the collaborative therapeutic relationship between therapist and client. Therapy is a unique process for each client. It begins with a comprehensive evaluation during which I learn about you, your situation, and your goals. You also get the chance to learn more about me and get a feel for how we will work together. During the course of therapy, we will continue to evaluate and make changes to your treatment to reflect completed goals and new challenges.

I am a licensed psychologist in Florida with over twenty-five years of experience with children, adolescents, and adults with a wide range of mood disorders, parenting problems, behavior, and relationship issues. I have conducted evaluations for Social Security Disability and the Department of Children and Families as well as custody Parental Evaluations for families and the court system. I am trained in Collaborative Law divorce mediation to help families focus on the best interest of their children through those difficult circumstances. Working with patients that are having difficulties making life adjustments as life becomes more complex is what I enjoy the most because we all can become more adaptable and develop new skills and techniques to help us cope more effectively. I have worked with patients suffering with and recovering from significant medical issues including COPD, CVA, TBI, cancer, diabetes, COVID, and physical injury, assisting them in regaining strength and independence and being able to return home following inpatient rehabilitation intervention. Many people I work with are first responders, have PTSD, or are suffering from Acute Stress Disorder following a trauma. My therapy style varies according to the issues presented, and my role as a psychologist is not to judge but to treat people as individuals and provide needed support. I use cognitive-behavioral and reality therapy and am very much in-line with the humanistic approach in all client care. I prefer to be solution-focused and to provide clients with valuable tools that they can use in the future as needed. Decision making strategies and techniques are emphasized. I provide supportive therapy and try to aid in empowering patients in taking confident, measured steps toward where they want to be next in their life path.

Greetings!

If you are looking for a knowledgeable, and compassionate Therapist, then you should look no further. I am the one you are looking for. Hi! Pleasure meeting you.

I also encourage good rapport building because in this process, the relationship of a client and his/her therapist is vital to the success of this helping process. I will meet you wherever you are because this is about you, only you.

Perhaps you’re navigating the pain of a breakup, toxic dynamics, or unresolved issues from the past. As a therapist with 17 years of experience, I specialize in helping individuals explore and overcome relationship challenges, whether they stem from romantic relationships, family dynamics, friendships, or workplace interactions.

In a safe, supportive space, I’ll provide personalized guidance and practical tools to empower you to grow and thrive—starting with yourself.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to creating a safe, affirming space where individuals and couples can explore their identities, experiences, and challenges without fear of judgment. My primary specialty is providing inclusive counseling for the LGBTQ+ community. I offer sexuality and gender-affirming care, sex therapy, and polyamory/kink-informed counseling. I also specialize in supporting clients of all ages who are navigating the impacts of complex trauma and PTSD, offering compassionate care tailored to each person’s unique healing process. In addition, I bring expertise in working with children, adolescents, and adults with brain-based differences such as ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD), Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), and other conditions of neurodiversity. My approach integrates education, skill-building, and empowerment—helping individuals, couples, and families thrive in daily life while supporting parents and caregivers in understanding and meeting the needs of their loved ones.

Hello, I’m so happy you’re here. My name is Nisha and I am a Psychotherapist who is fully licensed in mental health counseling. I am also the founder of Therapy Island, a global sanctuary dedicated to healing and growth. If you are a determined individual standing at the crossroads of change, grappling with feelings of dissatisfaction and unfulfillment in various aspects of your life, then you have come to the right place.

Hello! I am a licensed psychologist and I also completed post graduate training in marriage and family therapy. I have tremendous respect for individuals who are open to addressing their difficult experiences. To do so, requires courage, and I will partner with you on this journey. Painful life experiences leave an unfinished learning, and the purpose of therapy is to complete this learning. In individual therapy, I help client’s to say, “No,” without feeling guilty, and to move away from repetitive overthinking. We will address your “inner critic” to help you to be present in relating to others. Individual therapy can address your motivation and vitality, helping you to manage stress, rather than stress managing you. With couples and family therapy, I help couples stop having the same argument over and over. After infidelity, couples may find the path back to “us.” Partners with parenting differences can learn to collaborate for their kids.

Welcome! I’m Jalisia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a passion for helping people navigate life’s most difficult moments. If you’ve asked yourself this question, “Why does life feel like it’s one thing after another?” You might be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or drained. Maybe your self-esteem has taken a hit, and motivation feels hard to find. Life can throw curveballs, and when it does, it’s okay to need support. Seeking help isn’t a sign of weakness, it’s an act of courage and self-care. With the right guidance, you can come out stronger, more balanced, and more confident. My approach is person-centered, meaning you are in control of your healing journey. I offer a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you can safely explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Together, we’ll work toward clarity, self-awareness, and emotional growth, empowering you to make the changes you desire.

Hi, my name is Vanessa, and I’m a licensed therapist based in Florida. I specialize in supporting individuals through trauma, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. With over six years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse group of clients as they navigate life changes, heal from past experiences, and face mental health challenges. I provide culturally responsive and compassionate care by meeting clients where they are—personally and emotionally. I believe therapy works best when it feels like a partnership, and I value building a strong therapeutic relationship where we collaborate on your goals. My experience includes working with a wide range of concerns such as interpersonal challenges, family dynamics, racial and ethnic identity issues, and adjustment disorders. No matter what brings you to therapy, I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you feel understood, empowered, and equipped to grow.

With over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, I am passionate about supporting adults and couples as they navigate life’s transitions and pursue meaningful growth. Whether you are a college student or recent graduate adjusting to a new season of life, an individual facing anxiety or depression, or a couple preparing for marriage or working to strengthen your relationship, I strive to provide guidance that feels both supportive and practical. My Christian faith shapes my personal values; however, I work with people from all backgrounds and beliefs. Faith-based perspectives are incorporated into counseling only if a client specifically desires it. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where you feel heard, understood, and supported. Life transitions—whether expected or unexpected—can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate them alone. Together, we can explore the challenges you are facing and work toward the emotional and personal goals that matter most to you. I have experience working with adults experiencing life changes, including college and post-college transitions, relationship challenges, marriage and premarital preparation, and parenting. I also support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and stress that often accompany these seasons of change. My background as a behavioral specialist in community mental health allows me to effectively support adults diagnosed with ADHD or autism spectrum disorder, as well as parents raising children with these diagnoses. In my work with couples, I draw from my experience as a trained Prepare/Enrich facilitator to help partners strengthen communication, navigate conflict, and build healthier, more connected relationships. When working with individuals, I primarily use a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) approach to address concerns such as anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My focus is on equipping you with practical tools and strategies so you can move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and resilience.

Hi, I’m Glen Cognac, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida. I specialize in helping adults who are struggling with addiction, trauma, anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. For years I’ve worked across different levels of care, from PHP and IOP to outpatient treatment, which has given me a unique perspective on what clients truly need at different stages of recovery and healing. My approach is neuroscience-informed and evidence-based. I draw from EMDR, CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients not only understand what is happening in their lives, but also why. By looking at how the brain and body respond to stress, trauma, and cravings, I help people build practical tools that make lasting change possible. I believe therapy should feel like a safe, nonjudgmental space where you don’t just talk about your struggles, but also discover strengths you may not have realized you had. Many of my clients come to me feeling stuck, ashamed, or afraid of repeating old patterns; and together we create a new way forward. If you’re looking for a therapist who will listen with compassion, offer clarity, and give you tools that actually work in daily life, I’d be honored to support you.
