Attachment-Based Therapy Therapists in Jacksonville, FL

Hello, my name is Robin! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with over five years of experience supporting individuals through life’s challenges. My approach to therapy is compassionate, creative, and grounded in building genuine connections. I believe that every person has the capacity for growth and healing, and I work to create a safe, supportive environment where clients feel heard and understood. My personal journey has given me a deep understanding of life’s joys and challenges, allowing me to connect with clients in a genuine and compassionate way. I understand that each person’s story is unique, and I tailor my approach to meet the individual needs of those I work with. In sessions, I often incorporate experiential and hands-on tools to make therapy engaging and practical, helping clients apply what they learn in real and lasting ways. Outside the therapy room, you’ll often find me spending time with my kids, tending to my garden, staying active through exercise, or enjoying creative projects and crafting. I value creativity both personally and professionally, and I love bringing that spirit into my work to help clients feel empowered, supported, and equipped for their own journeys of growth.

I am a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT) passionate about helping individuals find hope and healing during the most difficult times of their lives.  These difficult experiences can leave one feeling lost, depressed, anxious, fearful, and emotionally wounded. Feeling "stuck" with any of these emotions can be very overwhelming and life-altering.  However, I believe that no matter the circumstances there is always hope and the possibility of Moving Forward! I have been a therapist for 10+ years specializing in the field of trauma, specifically Sexual Abuse trauma. My specialties include the treatment of Anxiety, Depression, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Additionally, I have experience in providing counseling services to individuals, couples, and families with a range of emotional and behavioral issues such as Adoption Related Issues, Attachment Disorders, Crisis Intervention, Conflict Resolution, Depression, Grief & Loss, and Parenting.

Congratulations on taking the first step towards a brighter and healthier future! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) located in Florida with almost a decade of experience and a passion for helping others. Whether you're facing long-term trauma or just trying to get through the week, I’m here to help you make sense of things and move forward with more confidence and self-compassion. I am a native German speaker, so am more than willing to provide therapy in German as well, if requested. In my free time, I enjoy doing arts and crafts, traveling, and being in nature.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unheard? Struggling to navigate life’s unexpected challenges? Do past experiences or unresolved issues hold you back from living fully? I provide a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. Together, we will develop personalized strategies tailored to your unique experiences and goals. Therapy is a collaborative process, and I believe in working closely with you to understand your needs, strengths, and challenges. This partnership allows us to explore different perspectives, identify patterns in your thinking and behavior, and create new pathways for growth As a culturally competent therapist trained in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I am here to support you in your journey toward healing and growth. My focus is on working with clients who face a range of challenges, including depression, anxiety, major life changes, unhealthy relationships and generational trauma. Together, we can work on setting and achieving both small and long-term goals. In our work together, we will focus on progress, not perfection. Your imperfections are not flaws—they are a fundamental part of who you are. By embracing them, we can work toward creating a life that feels authentic, fulfilling, and true to you.

I have extensive experience with individual therapy, working for substance use treatment centers, and working at various psychiatric hospitals. I have worked in roles including Behavioral Health Tech, Case Management, Primary Therapist, and Clinical Supervisor. I have worked with age groups ranging from young children to geriatrics. I firmly believe that in order to help someone, you have to understand them. In order to understand someone, you require personal life experience to truly understand where they are coming from. I am very passionate about what I do. People have asked me previously if I enjoy what I do. I inform them that in my perspective, this is what I "designed" to be. There is no "taking off the therapy hat" for me - this is simply who I am and my purpose. You will learn very quickly how dedicated I am to serving people. I am well-versed in both DSM-IV and DSM-5 (the manuals used to diagnose someone). I have dedicated approximately 31 years of my life to this. Many clients throughout the years told me in their words that I am the "best therapist" they ever had. I encourage you to hire me and judge for yourself. I was entered into two international honor societies (top 15% of students in the field across the span of 8 countries with a flawless 4.0 GPA). Please note: I am a licensed mental health counselor. If you are seeking medication management, you will need to book an appointment with a psychiatrist.

I work with individuals navigating difficult experiences such as trauma, abuse, neglect, ADHD, adoption and foster care challenges, LGBTQ+ topics, self-esteem struggles, as well as issues like anxiety, depression, OCD, and mood disorders. I draw from a variety of therapeutic approaches—including Psychodynamic Theory, CBT, DBT, Attachment Theory, Solution-Focused techniques, Motivational Interviewing, and Strength-Based Theory. I'm formally trained in DBT, CBT, adoption competency and play therapy techniques

We’ll dig into patterns, figure out what’s working (and what’s not), and build better ways to take care of yourself and your relationships.

My self-pay rates: $225 for a thorough intake assessment, $200 for couple and family therapy, $175 for individual therapy sessions. I am currently a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in FL, who has also had training in a PhD in Couple and Family Therapy program. LMFTs are uniquely trained to view problems through a systemic lens. Humans do not exist in a bubble, which means we impact the systems we are a part of and those systems impact us. My life experiences are what lead me into the helping field. Typically, the therapist who can best help someone is a therapist who has shared experiences with their clients. As a result of the many traumas, including medical traumas, I have experienced, I have learned how to work through trauma, negotiate its current impacts, and rediscover a preferred path. I enjoy spending time outdoors, including water recreation and nature hikes and am also a lover of all things animal and nature. My goal with clients is to help them determine which path is the correct one for them and support them on their journey. While I am an expert in my field, my clients are the experts on their lives. Collaboratively, we will work as a team to improve quality of life and learn how to endure life’s stressors in a healthy way and achieve goals while ensuring my clients feel heard, supported and valued despite their struggles. Ensuring a safe space to discuss the most uncomfortable topics is of utmost importance. There is no topic off limits and no shame in discussing what may feel embarrassing because you will not find judgment from me in our work. Ever.

I have over 10 years of experience specializing in depression, anxiety, issues of acceptance and belonging, spiritual/religious transitions, identity/moral formation, career issues, relationships, stage of life issues, and family of origin issues.

I will do my absolute best to ensure our sessions begin and end on time.

I am a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida. I have been in the mental health field for over 14 years, and I bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to my work.

Once 15 minutes has passed and a client has not showed up or messaged me, the appointment is canceled and a no-show fee is charged.

Hi, I’m Allison. Whether you’re feeling burned out, stuck in unfulfilling patterns, or having challenges in your relationships, therapy can help you recover and feel more grounded. Many of the people I work with are new to therapy. They may not have a specific diagnosis or crisis, but they know something feels “off.” Clients often tell me they feel comfortable opening up with me quickly. If you're feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, know that meaningful change is possible. Let’s work together to help you feel more content, empowered, and like yourself again. Clients often tell me they feel at ease opening up to me. Many feel relieved to have a therapist who offers active guidance, rather than just listening without direction. Finding relief and reconnecting with a sense of peace is more achievable than it might feel right now—and once you start, the process of change often unfolds more quickly than you expect. I approach therapy by looking at the root cause of problems, rather than focusing on one problem at a time. I work from a systemic perspective, which means we will dive into your personal relationships, behavior patterns, and lifestyle choices which are interconnected with the issues you may be facing. If you'd like to learn more about me and my therapy methods, feel free to visit my website at www.mindtalkhealing.com

I am a psychotherapist who helps teens and adults feel better by talking through what’s been hard and teaching ways to handle big feelings. I create a safe space where you can be yourself, talk about anything, and not feel judged. Sometimes, we look at how past experiences or relationships may be affecting how you feel now. If you’ve gone through something really scary or upsetting, I use gentle ways to help you feel safer and more in control again. My job is to help you understand what’s going on inside and give you tools to feel stronger, calmer, and more like yourself. If you want, we can include your faith and beliefs as part of the conversation too.

Dr. Alexis (she/they) is a queer, neurodivergent, Latinx therapist and guide who supports Women of Color, LGBTQ+ folks, and late-diagnosed neurodivergent individuals navigating burnout, identity, and relational healing. Using the *The Restorative Thread* methodology she developed, she weaves together narrative therapy, somatic practices, and culturally grounded care to help clients unmask, reconnect, and reclaim their truth—in their own time and in their own way. Many of her clients are deeply capable and outwardly composed, yet inwardly carrying exhaustion, disconnection, or the weight of constantly being “on.” Dr. Alexis offers a restorative, affirming space where you can explore who you are *beyond survival*, and begin to live more fully aligned with your essence embodiment.

Choosing a therapist is a deeply personal decision, and I honor the courage it takes to begin this process. If we work together, you can expect a therapeutic relationship built on trust, collaboration, and respect. I create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you can show up as you are—no masks, no pressure—and begin to explore what healing and growth look like for you. My approach is thoughtful and tailored. I draw from evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Emotion-Focused Therapy, adapting each session to meet your needs and goals. Whether you are navigating anxiety, self-doubt, relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, I help you make sense of your experiences, strengthen emotional awareness, and find new ways to move forward. I believe therapy should not just be about coping—it should be about transformation. That might mean learning how to quiet an inner critic, setting healthier boundaries, deepening relationships, or reconnecting with your sense of purpose. We will work at a pace that feels right for you, and I will walk beside you each step of the way with compassion, curiosity, and care. If you are looking for a therapist who listens deeply, challenges gently, and is committed to helping you build a more grounded and empowered version of your life, I would be honored to work with you.

You have taken the first step towards empowerment in your life by wanting to make a change! I have been where you are right now. I have experienced anxiety and irrational thoughts. I can totally relate to what you are going through. I was diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Syndrome, an autoimmune disorder that mimics depression and bipolar, multiple sclerosis, and stage three chronic kidney disease. For a while, I never wanted to leave my house, get out of bed and found it difficult to face the day. I was able to overcome so many things and so can you. I always encourage my clients to get a medical check-up prior to mental health treatment to rule out any physical health symptoms.

As a therapist, I believe that a kind and supportive, client-focused approach is fundamental in helping navigate the many challenges that life can bring. I like to provide my clients with a warm, nonjudgmental, safe, and supportive space where we can explore and address the various thoughts, emotions, experiences, etc. that pose a challenge in everyday life. Life can bring about many challenges and at times, seeking professional support can help manage these challenges. I take pride in being able to meet my clients where they are as we explore what therapy has to offer.

Feeling trapped in the same relationship patterns, dissatisfied, unfulfilled or unsure how to move forward? I work with individuals who are ready to stop settling, grow their confidence, and create meaningful, empowering connections. I am a Latinx/Brazilian Marriage and Family therapist; I have extensive experience assisting different populations navigate Individual, family and marital challenges. My focus has been on trauma, anxiety, family, relationships and marital issues. My clients have discovered the benefits of adding my support to their lives, having someone they can openly speak to without reservations or fear of judgment.

My Journey to becoming a therapist began after a career in teaching and raising my three boys. My passion has always been working with children, but as a therapist, I have the ability to help people of all ages. I have a background in working with trauma, adoption, divorce, parent coaching, and the child welfare system, and I have experience working with young children, teens and adults. I specialize in working with children and families who are struggling with child behaviors, life circumstances, family dynamics, adult, relationships, or parent, child relationships, and seek greater connection, harmony, and resiliency in life.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 13 years of experience. I received my Masters from Florida State in 2013 and have worked with clients from preschool to retirement, with specialization in trauma, anxiety, and maternal mental health. I am a Registered Art Therapist and enjoy incorporating this approach for the times you may feel words are not enough.

Hi there! You’ve come to the right place if you’re feeling stuck, tired of repeating the same old patterns in your life or relationships, or longing for something deeper, a happier, more meaningful life. Maybe you’ve tried changing before and felt afraid or unsure of how to move forward. I see you, and you’re not alone. I’m new to Grow, but I bring years of experience as a therapist working with individuals from all walks of life; different ages, backgrounds, and diagnoses. Clients often describe me as down-to-earth, approachable, and supportive, while also challenging them to see things in new ways. I became a therapist because I believe everyone deserves the chance to create the life they want, and no one should feel like they have to do it alone. In our sessions, you’ll find a warm and collaborative space. I’ll meet you where you are, help you uncover what truly matters to you, and start making real change right away. You’ll leave our first meeting with practical tools you can begin using immediately, and daily “homework” to keep the progress going.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida, I bring five years of dedicated experience to the field, specializing in supporting individuals facing challenges related to eating disorders, trauma, mood disorders, and more. As a therapist, I am deeply committed to fostering a safe and empathetic space where clients feel heard, understood, and valued. My approach is rooted in kindness, compassion, and empathy, guiding clients through their healing journey with patience and understanding. I believe in the power of collaboration and tailor my therapeutic interventions to meet each individual's unique needs, empowering them to navigate life's difficulties and achieve personal growth and well-being.

Narcissists weaponize by their reactivity. If you do something they don't like they make you feel guilty. Guilt is associated with having done something wrong and the guilt is the glue that holds these relationships together. I work with clients who suffer from narcissistic abuse, addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Ive had the pleasure of helping my clients gain awareness and heal from trauma. In addition I also provide supervision for licensure.
