Hi, I’m Joe. I’ve worked in the mental health field for 27 years across substance use treatment, outpatient care, and hospital settings. I’ve supported individuals and families through crisis, transition, and long-term growth. I work well with young adults, adults, and families who are navigating stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, substance use, or major life changes. I also have extensive experience working with men who may struggle to express emotions directly and instead feel stuck in withdrawal, irritability, or self-doubt. As a veteran, I understand the mindset and pressures that can come with military life. Across all of my work, I aim to provide a grounded, steady presence where honesty, insight, and meaningful change can take place.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Clinical Hypnotherapist, but more than that, I work with people who feel stuck in patterns they understand but still can’t seem to break. Maybe it shows up in relationships that feel familiar but painful, putting others first so you don’t lose them, or slipping back into old habits when emotions become overwhelming. You’re not broken. You are repeating a pattern that once kept you safe but now keeps you stuck. I help clients who look strong and “put together” on the outside, but internally feel disconnected, unseen, or like they’re always fighting themselves. You might know why you do what you do because you’ve read the books, tried therapy before, told yourself you’d choose differently, and yet something still pulls you back. My approach is real, honest, and compassionate. We won’t just talk about the surface problem. We’ll work with the deeper beliefs and emotional wiring underneath it. Together, we identify what keeps you abandoning yourself, and begin rebuilding from a place of self-trust, worthiness, and grounded clarity.

Hi. My name is Candance, but you can call me Candy. Do you feel as though you are being weighed down by certain thoughts and emotions, like you are out of balance? Is it difficult for you to manage your day to day responsibilities due to these thoughts and emotions? Would you like help in understanding and managing these thoughts and emotions so you can experience balance in your life? I help individuals get to that place of healthy balance, with a goal of remaining there. Together, we can work to identify your strengths and challenges to find solutions for managing your most challenging thoughts and emotions. We will use a person centered and strength based approach, exploring past and present experiences as they relate to your current state of overall well-being. I also integrate mindfulness techniques to help you develop a stronger more balanced state of being. Whether you are dealing with circumstances, thoughts or feelings that are overwhelming, I want to help. Reaching out for help can feel uncomfortable or seem scary, but you are making the right choice. During our sessions together, I will meet you with genuine compassion using evidence-based techniques to help you achieve and remain in a healthy, more balanced state of being. Let’s do this.

Maybe you’ve gotten used to being the person who handles everything, takes care of everyone else, and keeps going even when you feel overwhelmed. On the outside, things may look like they’re going well, but internally you may be dealing with anxiety, overthinking, relationship stress, or feeling emotionally drained. You may also notice patterns that keep showing up, like difficulty setting boundaries, putting your needs last, people pleasing, or feeling responsible for everyone else. I work with women who want to better understand themselves and make meaningful, lasting changes. Together, we may look at what is happening now while also exploring how earlier experiences and relationships have shaped the way you see yourself, connect with others, and respond to stress. The goal isn’t to blame the past, but to understand what you learned along the way and decide what still fits the life you want today. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, National Certified Counselor, Certified Perinatal Mental Health Professional, and EMDRIA Certified EMDR Therapist. I support women navigating anxiety, relationship challenges, life transitions, difficult past experiences, and patterns they are ready to change. I also specialize in supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum, motherhood, and the emotional changes that can come with these stages of life. My approach is warm, collaborative, and tailored to you. Therapy is a space to be yourself, talk openly, make connections, learn practical tools, and use approaches such as EMDR when appropriate. Together, we can work toward stronger boundaries, healthier relationships, greater confidence, and feeling more connected to yourself and the life you want.

About Me Welcome—I’m Emmanuel Nzuzu. If you’re here, something within you knows that the way things are… is not the way they’re meant to be. You may be carrying more than you let on—On the outside, you may still be functioning. But internally, it feels different. And at some point, you begin to recognize: You cannot keep living this way. In our work together, you are faced with a powerful choice: You can continue to think about your life as it is… or begin to see it as it should be. You can stay anchored in your current reality… or start creating a new one. You can focus on how heavy things feel… or on how different they could become. You can keep revisiting the problem… or begin building the solution. My role is to guide you through that shift—with clarity, structure, certainty, and intention. I provide a private, grounded space where you can safely confront what you’ve been carrying—without judgment, and without losing yourself in it. Whether it’s alcohol, drugs, emotional overwhelm, or internal conflict, we work to help you regain control by taking your power back from the patterns that have been quietly running your life. Together, we move beyond survival. You will learn to steady your mind, regulate your emotions, and become guided by a clear vision of your future and not memories of the past. This is not about managing symptoms. It is about reclaiming your clarity, your strength, and your direction—and building a life that reflects who you truly are. If you’re ready to stop living in what is… and begin creating what should be, I’m here.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally exhausted from constantly caring for others while neglecting their own needs. If you’re caring for an aging parent, spouse, or another loved one over the age of 18, you don’t have to carry that stress alone. My name is Clint, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving clients in Florida and Alabama. I specialize in supporting caregivers of older adults and individuals with disabilities over the age of 18 who may be struggling with burnout, anxiety, guilt, stress, or feeling emotionally drained. As a former primary caregiver for my father, I understand firsthand the emotional and practical challenges caregiving can bring. Balancing medical appointments, family responsibilities, work demands, and the emotional weight of supporting a loved one can leave little time to care for yourself. Since 2011, I’ve worked alongside caregivers and families to help reduce burnout, build healthier boundaries, improve coping skills, and create more balance in daily life. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on practical tools you can use outside of sessions. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and supportive therapy to help clients manage stress, navigate difficult emotions, and reconnect with their own well-being. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. The first session is simply an opportunity for us to talk about what’s been weighing on you and explore whether working together feels like a good fit — with no pressure or expectations. If you’re ready for support, I’d be honored to work alongside you.

I’m a direct, honest therapist who believes real change happens when we stop pretending things are fine. I work especially well with individuals who feel stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, over-functioning, or putting others’ needs before their own. I help clients develop healthier boundaries, strengthen self-worth, and create relationships that feel more balanced and authentic. I understand the tug-of-war between wanting relief and wanting control — and how exhausting it is to live in that space. I also get how hard it is to find balance in a world that moves too fast and demands too much. If you’re tired of surface-level fixes, quick advice, or being told what you should do, we’ll probably work well together. I’m not a quick-fix or band-aid therapist. My goal is to help you slow things down, get honest, and reconnect with your truth — not the version of you shaped by pressure, expectations, or survival mode.

Hi, I’m Gretchen Raring, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW: NJ, FL, AZ & ND; LICSW: MA) with 20+ years of experience in behavioral health. I work with teens through older adults, as well as couples, and have supported clients from many backgrounds, cultures, and life experiences. My practice is grounded in the belief that therapy should feel supportive and purposeful. My style is warm, direct, collaborative, and practical, and I see therapy as a team effort. I want you to feel comfortable being honest while feeling supported and challenged as you work toward change. My approach is structured but flexible. We’ll have a clear sense of direction while making room for what matters most. I use an eclectic approach based on your needs, strengths, and goals. I don’t believe therapy should feel one-size-fits-all. One of my strengths is being highly attuned and building the trust that allows deeper work. Together, we’ll connect the dots between your experiences, emotions, relationships, thoughts, and behaviors. We’ll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck and develop practical strategies for everyday life. My background includes work across mental health, addiction, trauma, homelessness, the criminal justice system, and community-based behavioral health. I’ve worked with people during some of the most difficult times in their lives. Those experiences shape how I practice and reinforce my belief that there is always more to someone’s story than what you see on the surface. I believe progress is about the direction of our work, not the speed. Change often happens through small steps. I’m a strong believer in celebrating every win because those wins build confidence and momentum. Above all, I want therapy to be a place for honest conversations, deeper understanding, practical tools, and meaningful change—at a pace that works for you.

I help adults struggling with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, burnout, relationship challenges, life transitions, and self-esteem. My approach is practical, structured, and collaborative. I combine evidence-based trauma therapies with clear goals to help clients develop effective coping skills, process difficult experiences, recognize patterns that may be keeping them stuck, and create meaningful change. Before becoming a therapist, I spent more than two decades in competitive corporate environments where long hours, high expectations, and constant pressure were the norm. After earning an MBA from George Washington University and completing postgraduate work at Emory University, I experienced firsthand how chronic stress, burnout, relationship difficulties, and unresolved personal issues can affect both professional success and life outside of work. This background helps me connect naturally with professionals, executives, entrepreneurs, and others navigating demanding careers, while my practice serves all adults from many different backgrounds. Over the past eight years, I have provided psychotherapy in psychiatric hospitals, residential treatment programs, specialized treatment settings, court-supervised programs, and private practice. Much of my clinical work has focused on trauma recovery, emotional regulation, healthier coping strategies, recovery, relationships, identity exploration and personal growth. Whether you are carrying unresolved trauma, feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or stress, navigating a difficult relationship or transition, or questioning what comes next, therapy should do more than help you understand why you feel stuck. My goal is to create a safe, direct, and supportive environment where we can turn insight into action, address what is getting in the way, and build practical strategies for moving toward the life you want to create.

Therapy for mental health and substance use—break patterns, build coping skills, and create lasting change. Hi, I’m Johana Luxin, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with individuals who feel stuck in patterns they’re ready to change—whether that’s anxiety, depression, trauma, or substance use. My experience in inpatient rehabilitation has given me a strong foundation in helping clients navigate both mental health and addiction challenges. I focus on helping you understand the root of what’s going on, not just the surface symptoms. Therapy with me is collaborative, supportive, and goal-oriented. We’ll work together to build insight, develop practical coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change in your life.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who supports adults navigating anxiety, burnout, and major life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and action-oriented. I help people move from feeling stuck or overwhelmed to feeling more grounded, connected, and purposeful. In our work together, you’ll build practical tools, explore unhelpful patterns, and develop a deeper understanding of yourself so you can make choices that align with the life you want to create. My goal is to offer a space where you can be honest about what you’re going through without fear of judgment. I believe therapy works best when it helps you feel more like yourself- clearer, calmer, and empowered to make meaningful changes. Together, we’ll focus on interrupting old patterns and building new skills that help you move forward with confidence.

Hi, my name is Sylvia Barra, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of Florida. I earned my Master’s degree from Florida International University after spending many years working in the mental health field. I have experience supporting individuals who are navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life adjustments, school-related stress, self-esteem challenges, and the daily pressures that can feel overwhelming at times. I believe therapy should be a safe and supportive space where you feel heard, validated, and understood. My therapeutic approach is collaborative, compassionate, and client-centered. I incorporate evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help clients build coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and create lasting change. I also take a strengths-based approach, focusing on what is already within you and helping you reconnect with your inner resilience. My goal with every client is to help you tap into your inner potential, gain clarity and confidence, and take meaningful steps toward becoming the best version of yourself. Together, we will work toward creating measurable progress and a life that feels more balanced, fulfilling, and aligned.

You can understand exactly why you keep doing something and still feel completely stuck in it. With 20 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with adults who are tired of repeating patterns that no longer work for them. My style is active, relational, practical, and conversational. We look beyond what happened to what keeps happening—what activates the pattern, what keeps it going, and where we can actually interrupt it. I work with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, ADHD, neurodivergence, relationship difficulties, serious illness, major life transitions, and burnout from carrying too much for too long. I’m LGBTQ+ affirming and welcoming of diverse identities, sexualities, and non-traditional relationship structures. I’m genuinely open-minded about how people build relationships and live their lives. You’re unlikely to shock me, and vanilla is certainly not a requirement for admission. You don’t have to clean yourself up for therapy. Bring the contradictions, questionable decisions, weird relationship dynamics, dark humor, 47 tabs of self-help information, and the thing you’re pretty sure will make me judge you. I probably won’t. My approach is integrative, drawing from CBT, motivational interviewing, attachment-based work, somatic and nervous-system awareness, mindfulness, behavioral strategies, and psychoeducation. I’m endlessly curious about what makes people tick, and I translate therapy concepts into normal language. I’m warm and supportive, but I’m not a therapist who just nods and agrees with everything you say. I’ll believe you about your experience while sometimes lovingly questioning the story your brain has built around it. I’ll notice patterns, contradictions, play devil’s advocate, and help turn insight into something useful outside the therapy room. We’ll probably laugh in therapy, sometimes about things that objectively aren’t funny. Humans are weird. Therapeutic fit matters enormously to me, and I have no ego about being the right therapist for everyone.

Frequently asked questions

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Florida. 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.

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.

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

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.

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.
