Hey, My name is Ariel, If you're reading this, you may be carrying challenges that feel overwhelming, uncertain, or difficult to navigate alone. Whether you're seeking support for yourself, your child, your relationship, or your family, know that you don't have to have all the answers before starting therapy. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to grow. Together, we can work toward greater balance, healing, and confidence as you move forward in your journey. It would be a privilege to walk alongside you.

I believe that healing begins in a relationship where you feel seen, heard, and accepted without judgment. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 15 years of experience, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and collaborative space where you can explore life's challenges with honesty and curiosity. My role is not to tell you who to be or what decisions to make. Instead, I serve as a compassionate guide, helping you better understand yourself, recognize patterns that may no longer serve you, and discover strengths you may not yet see in yourself. I believe that every person has the capacity for growth, healing, and meaningful change. My approach is trauma-informed, culturally sensitive, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I understand that our early experiences shape how we view ourselves, connect with others, and respond to life's challenges. Together, we'll explore those experiences with compassion, helping you rewrite unhelpful narratives and build healthier ways of thinking, feeling, and relating. I bring warmth, empathy, curiosity, and gentle honesty to each session, creating an environment where you can be your full, authentic self. While I offer support and validation, I also encourage reflection and meaningful action so that lasting change can take place. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, healing from past wounds, strengthening relationships, or seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, I am committed to walking alongside you every step of the way. My goal is to help you cultivate resilience, self-compassion, and confidence so you can create a life that feels aligned with your values and authentic sense of self. I believe therapy is not about fixing what is "wrong" with you—it's about uncovering your strengths, fostering emotional healing, and empowering you to move forward with greater clarity, purpose, and peace.

Hi, I am Kamala, a FL and GA LMHC. I received my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Jacksonville University in 2003 and my master's in Professional Counseling from Liberty University in 2015. I have worked as a mental health counselor for five years. However, I have been in the field of helping people for 18 years, starting as a case manager at a homeless shelter and later as a special education teacher. What can I can say? People are my niche. Helping individuals get through life's difficulties is my purpose. The thing about it is, we may not be able to live 100% symptom-free, but we can live productive, fulfilling lives even with some discomfort. That may sound daunting, but I think it's realistic. Do you know why? Because even when we get through one thing, another thing is somewhere on the timeline waiting. I'm here to help you get through your "thing" now and prepare you for your "thing" later. Hope to meet you soon.

Hello! It’s a pleasure to meet you, please call me Dee. I’m a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a retired Army veteran. I have over 18 years of professional counseling experience working with both children and adults.

Hi, I’m Shari. With more than 26 years of experience as a licensed mental health counselor, I believe every person has inherent worth that exists beyond their struggles, diagnoses, or life circumstances. At the heart of my practice is a commitment to seeing people through mercy and grace, recognizing dignity beyond dysfunction, strength alongside suffering, and hope even in life's most difficult seasons. These principles shape how I understand each client's story and guide the therapeutic relationship we build together. I recognize that many of the ways people cope with anxiety, trauma, grief, or life's challenges began as creative ways to survive difficult circumstances. Rather than defining people by their symptoms or past experiences, I seek to understand their unique story, honor the resilience that has carried them this far, and help them build healthier patterns that support lasting healing and growth. I also believe spirituality is a source of meaning, hope, and resilience that is distinct from religious beliefs or practices. Whether you identify as religious, spiritual, both, or neither, I respect your values and will thoughtfully incorporate them into therapy only if they are important to you. My approach is collaborative, client-centered, and evidence-based. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, caregiver stress, chronic illness, relationship challenges, or major life transitions, my goal is to help you gain insight, build practical coping skills, and reconnect with your strengths so you can move toward a more meaningful and fulfilling life.

With more than 30 years of experience in counseling, education, and mental health services, I bring a compassionate, culturally responsive, and strengths-based approach to therapy. I hold master’s degrees in Counseling from Webster University and Human Relations from University of Oklahoma, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges with confidence and resilience. My professional experience spans district-level school counseling, district-level mental health leadership, juvenile justice, family advocacy, career counseling, and community-based support services.

I am an LMHC therapist, public speaker, community organizer, social and environmental activist, and have been listening for decades. My Master of Clinical Psychotherapy, 2013 came from the University of North Florida. I experienced a Clinical Pastoral Education, in deep listening. I worked in the Talk program at Wounded the warriors talked; I listened. Trauma Supportive Therapy is used to safely address, as slowly as need be, the pain of the past that keeps coming to trip your defenses in the present at all the wrong moments. I can be that supporting presence who will help sort it out by listening, sincerely hearing you, reflecting the depth of your feelings back to you. I practice the therapy of defining personal meaning, so, together we will think about your options, planning, purpose, and goals for living a meaningful life without being afraid of tripping over your past or yourself. I practice person centered therapy by meeting you where you are. I strive to be culturally sensitive, non-prejudicial and use strength-based therapy as a jump point, truly believing I am the guide for you, but you are the treasures and wisdom keeper. Of all the reasons people come to therapy: anger, guilt, anxiety, changes, transitions, depression, trauma, jealousy, and “it is just not working anymore”, the extra burden of race and racism is more than just a nuance to be nodded at in therapy. I will view race as central to all the other pieces, when it is central to you. I am inclusive, secular, competent, affirming, and non-judgmental. I have worked with people in transition, people who are very much defined, “but things got complicated”, people in the communities of LGBTQA, Polyamory, Kink, non-gendered. Each are safe and welcome here.

I’m great at listening and providing space for whatever a person needs to bring to session.

Hello, I’m Carmen Bales, LCSW. I’m a licensed clinical social worker with a background in hospice and medical social work, where I’ve spent many years supporting people through grief, chronic stress, life transitions, and uncertainty.

Additionally, I hold a Comprehensive 3-Year Certification in Intermodal Expressive Arts. You do not need to feel “creative” to work with me.

Over the years, I've worked with people from many different worlds, facing different expectations and pressures.

Together, we'll connect insight with practical changes that fit your life. My goal is simple: for you to leave each session better than when you walked in -with greater clarity, a useful skill, or a concrete next step.

Every individual has the capacity to change and it is my privilege to walk alongside clients as they reclaim their lives and discover their own resilience.

About Me I bring a rich background spanning education, counseling, and life’s real transitions to my practice. As a parent of three—with two in college—who has walked through a personal separation, I know firsthand what it takes to navigate major life shifts. My space is calm and grounded, but my style is straightforward and lovingly transparent. I’m here to offer real human perspective, warm encouragement, and practical guidance. My Approach I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into a clear, actionable methodology. Rather than just talking in circles, we look at the connection between your thoughts, habits, and emotional well-being. We’ll examine what’s keeping you stuck, leverage your natural strengths, and implement concrete tools that foster genuine, lasting growth. My Ideal Client My work is designed for the person who is ready to hold up a mirror, take an honest look at where they are, and commit to doing the real work. If you are ready to move past surface-level fixes, break through burnout, and step fully into your power, we will build a path forward together.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida; I help clients who are navigating various mental health diagnosis and co-occurring disorders. My approach is warm, relational, collaborative, and individualized. I believe the therapeutic relationship itself is an important part of the work. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I draw from evidence-based therapeutic modalities and tailor treatment to the individual in front of me, taking into account your worldview, values, strengths, needs, and goals. My goal is not simply to help you manage symptoms, but to help you develop deeper insights and connections. I provide Mental Health Counseling services via telehealth throughout the state of Florida, making therapy easier to fit around school, work, and family life.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience helping individuals and couples work through anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties, and everyday life challenges. My approach combines cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with supportive, honest conversations and practical strategies. I want clients to feel comfortable being themselves, talking openly, and knowing they won't be judged. Together, we'll identify unhelpful patterns, explore different perspectives, and work toward meaningful changes.

Hello! I’m a Florida-based Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s degree from Nova Southeastern University. I’ve had the privilege of working with individuals, couples, families, and groups across outpatient, inpatient, residential, and school-based settings. These experiences have taught me that no two people or stories are alike. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and comfortable being yourself as you navigate stress, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. I see therapy as a partnership built on trust, genuine connection, and empathy. I use an integrative, evidence-based approach to tailor the experience to your unique needs, while meeting you where you are and working together to understand what matters most to you.
