You may be feeling overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck in painful patterns that make it hard to manage daily life, relationships, or your sense of self-worth. Sometimes these struggles are tied to current life challenges, and other times they are connected to earlier experiences that continue to affect how you feel, relate to others, and respond to stress today. Therapy can help you better understand what is going on and begin making meaningful changes.
I am a bilingual (English/Spanish) speaking licensed psychotherapist and the author of Healing Childhood Trauma. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, low self-worth, and relationship difficulties. I help clients explore the patterns that may be keeping them stuck while building healthier ways of coping, relating, and moving through daily life.
Please note: I accept insurance for individual therapy; however, specialized couples counseling and family therapy are offered exclusively on a private-pay basis.
My approach is warm, straightforward, and collaborative. I work with respect for your pace and aim to create a space where you can better understand your experiences, work through emotional pain, and build more secure patterns in your life and relationships.
You do not need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. I support you through this process with the goal of helping you feel more secure, more confident, and better equipped to handle life’s challenges. When you feel ready to begin, I invite you to schedule our first session today.

I am a licensed mental health counselor (Florida & Delaware) with over 25 years of experience working with diverse individuals in the community, private practice, and residential substance abuse treatment. Never in a million years did I ever think providing counseling to individuals, couples, families, and groups, would be the career to captivate my heart….but it is! My specialties are working with clients who may be suffering from traumatic incidents, substance abuse, various forms of anxiety (PTSD, stress disorders), depression, self-esteem, and gender identity.
Making the decision to receive any form of mental health counseling can be taxing, however, the results are often positive and rewarding. Learning to face your fears in a healthy and appropriate manner is a sign of growth and maturity. It is not an easy task. You will cry, laugh, and maybe feel a little uncomfortable at times. This is just the therapeutic process working to make you emotionally stronger.
*Please note that my preference for treatment sessions are individual and group therapy. However, I do provide a limited number of couples or family therapy sessions for special circumstances.

Hi there, I'm Lory. Do conflicts keep repeating in your relationships, no matter how hard you try to break the cycle? Are you a parent struggling to connect with your teenager, feeling like every conversation turns into an argument or like you're slowly losing them? Is your teen feeling misunderstood or hitting walls in their friendships? Maybe you're an adult who keeps finding yourself in the same painful patterns, wondering why it's so hard to feel truly connected to the people you love. If any of this sounds familiar, you're not alone and you don't have to figure it out alone.
I work with adolescents (ages 13 and up) and adults who are ready to heal relational wounds, improve communication, and build healthier connections. Whether you're a teen navigating family dynamics, a parent trying to bridge the gap with your child, or an adult ready to break cycles that no longer serve you, this is a space for that work. My own life experiences have shaped me into a deeply empathetic therapist, and I feel genuinely honored to walk alongside people as they do the hard, meaningful work of healing.

Hello and Welcome, I’m Thiffany.
Thank you for choosing to connect with me.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and my mission is to help you.
I am currently only accepting new clients via teletherapy. After attending therapy myself, I realized how convenient teletherapy was in reaching my goals and feeling a sense of ownership over my time with fewer stressors to contemplate my ability to succeed (i.e. accounting for traffic time or taking time off work). Seeking help should come with fewer barriers and I want to provide you with that same peace of mind. I view therapy through a holistic viewpoint, in which I use the mind and body to help you get to the wellness you deserve.
I am trained as a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and as a Prepare-Enrich facilitator. I am fluent in both English and Spanish. My counseling experience is with youth, adolescence, adults, couples, and families.
I look forward to meeting you and working together.
As a Licensed Mental Health Therapist, it is my mission to cultivate a safe, caring, and non-judgmental environment where healing can take place.

I’m a licensed marriage and family therapist who helps individuals work through anxiety, past trauma, and relationship challenges. My style is collaborative, compassionate, and insight-oriented. I help clients understand patterns, heal emotional wounds, and build more fulfilling connections with themselves and others. My goal is to support lasting, meaningful change from the inside out. Reach out and lets get started!
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.

I am a Florida-based therapist, interested in working with clients from all walks of life who are interested in self-exploration and growth. I have worked in the field of counseling for 5 years and find that my favorite clients are those who "jump in" to the process of learning about themselves for the sake of building a satisfying, purpose-driven life.
Trained as a psychologist (Ph.D. from Cornell University). Some 20 years later I earned a second graduate degree in Marriage & Family Therapy. 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.
Hello there!
I believe that a person can change. I also beleive that each person deserves to feel heard and respected. My goal for you is to feel as though you can work through your issues and learn to manage your life, be content with who you are, and be happy. I work with individuals to remediate any number of issues in their lives, to make decisions, and to manage difficult cognitive or emotional experiences. I work with couples to learn to address conflict, learn new skills, and learn how to live lives together.
I think of counseling as a process where you and I build a relationship and work together to address whatever issues are impacting you. I'm a holistic counselor, meaning that I will help you explore multiple aspects of your life, including how you engage socially, how you think about situations, how you manage or express your emotions, your behaviors and skills, the quality of your interactions with family and friends, and other areas. I believe that we all have untapped resources, both internal and external, that we can use to make our lives better.
In terms of my background, I have worked in non-profit and two private practice environments. I have also served as a faculty member in clinical mental health counseling programs since 2011. I train future generations of counselors to work with people.
I hold several licenses and certifications. I am a Nationally Certified Counselor as well as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Tennessee. I am also a Qualified Supervisor in Florida. I have published several manuscripts, a book on the assessment and treatment of trauma and I have current works in press. conventions.
