The goal of my therapy approach is to help my clients improve their well-being and help them to reduce their stress.

I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, supported, and understood. My goal is to build a strong therapeutic relationship where you can be yourself without fear of judgment. Together, we'll explore the challenges you're facing, identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical skills to help you move forward. I tailor therapy to your unique needs rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach. I use a variety of evidence-based techniques to find what works best for you and your goals. My experience includes working in public and nonprofit mental health settings with both children and adults. If it is important to you, I am also happy to incorporate your Christian faith into counseling while blending faith-based principles with evidence-based care.

I help teens and adults facing anxiety, depression, panic, deal with self harm, eating disorders, feelings of emotional abandonment , have better relationships, maintain sobriety and to live a life of happiness. I am eclectic in my orientation and offer a holistic, integrative approach to client centered therapy, using cognitive behavioral techniques, motivational interviewing, stress management, meditation and yoga practices which I learned growing up in the Himalayan mountains. I enjoy working with clients from multicultural backgrounds whether they are adults, teenagers, couples or families.

Hey, I'm Robyn. I've been a therapist for over 15 years, and one thing I've learned is that life can be complicated.

I work with people dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, difficult relationships, narcissistic abuses and concerns around gender identity. I am a down-to-earth therapist. You don't have to come in knowing what to say or having everything figured out. We'll start where you are and go from there.

Hello, My name is Philomena , but you can call me Philo, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker- Qualified Supervisor in the state of Florida who has been in the field since 2013. My work history is colored with working with Teen Mother experiencing Crisis Pregnancy who opted to parent or place their children for adoption, assessing the Veteran population for biopsychosocial needs, and working in the educational setting as a School Therapist for Middle and High School age students. I have a love for Women, Gender & Sexuality Studies and Social Work Practice with the Elderly and have Undergrad and Graduate Certificates in both areas, respectively. While my resume and credentials may speak to my professional qualifications, I have many additional experiences that support my knowledge and cultural sensitivity. I offer a zeal for working with older teens, young adults, and women wishing to manifest change in their lives. I have worked with students struggling under social pressures and depression and have a natural knack for life skills, career guidance and helping others adjust to "Adulting." I firmly believe in the connectivity to ourselves and our environment and utilize a Systems / Strength-Based approach, focusing on what can be accomplished rather than deficits. Working as a Psychotherapist at NOLA Adulting LLC, I am able to help in bridging the gap between what formal education has taught us and life experiences. High School has prepared us for solving the quadratic equation, running a mile under 10 minutes, and understanding that in 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue, but we are not prepared on how to manage that feeling of emptiness we may experience post graduation and entering the workforce, setting appropriate boundaries in interpersonal relationships, or correct work email etiquette when we are fed up.

I am a national board-certified counselor, licensed in Florida, Georgia and South Carolina, practicing for 25+ years. Additionally, I am a provider for the Crisis Care Network, on-site crisis intervention for workplace violence and mass casualty.

Despite misconceptions, my job is not to solve your problems; instead, I assist you to focus on what you can and can’t change. I work with a holistic, evidence-based, trauma informed approach, taking great care to create a space of safety, trust and respect. I will listen carefully, challenge and support you throughout your journey.

Hola, Hi. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I have a Master's degree in Psychology from the University of Puerto Rico.

I work with a diverse population to cope with life struggles and mental health issues to achieve their goals and feel better.

Hello, I am Jackie Angeloro. I am a Clinical Licensed Social Worker and Qualified Supervisor in the state of Florida.

What would it feel like to be heard, to know that you are valued and cared about and to believe that there is real hope for your future? Are you struggling, anxious, grieving, overwhelmed? You are not alone. Life is really hard right now. You deserve self care and support. Difficult and painful experiences can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and others. As both a Wisconsin and Florida licensed mental health counselor (LPC, LMHC), I offer you a safe place to talk about and explore all those concerns.

My name is Romy Rodriguez and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I have worked with various populations with mental health and substance abuse struggles. I also provided Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to adolescents and their families who were living in homeless shelters and were in the court system. I have also worked with women with Post-Partum depression and struggling with substance abuse. Two of the modalities that I work with are Brainspotting and EMDR. Brainspotting focuses on identifying specific eye positions (“brainspots”) that connect to unprocessed material in the brain. By maintaining focused attention on these spots, clients are able to access, process, and resolve underlying issues at a deeper neurological level. This approach is especially effective for trauma, anxiety, and emotional regulation, allowing for profound healing in a safe, attuned, and client-centered space. I also specialize in EMDR. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help clients process and heal from trauma, distressing memories, and negative beliefs. As an EMDR-trained therapist, I guide clients through structured phases that use bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements) to help the brain reprocess stuck or overwhelming experiences. This allows painful memories to lose their intensity and supports the development of more adaptive, empowering beliefs. EMDR is highly effective for trauma, anxiety, and other emotional challenges, offering deep and lasting relief in a safe, supportive, and client-centered environment.

I’m a therapist who sees and treats you as a unique individual — not just a diagnosis or a checklist of symptoms. My goal is to meet you where you are, walk with you through your journey, and support you in reaching a place where you’re not just surviving, but truly thriving. I offer therapy grounded in compassion, care, and consistency. I believe in holding space for both grace and accountability — creating a safe environment where you can be honest with yourself, challenge unhelpful patterns, and grow. Together, we’ll work to identify and confront the distorted thoughts and false beliefs that often fuel anxiety, depression, and disconnection. My deepest desire is to help you break free from cycles that keep you stuck and to support your movement toward healing, clarity, and wholeness.

Hi, I’m Kristy, and I believe therapy should feel like a place where you can show up exactly as you are without pressure, judgment, or having to carry everything alone. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, grief, infertility, relationship stress, life transitions, and emotionally heavy seasons, with a special passion for supporting women through loss and identity shifts. My goal is to help you feel heard, supported, and more like yourself again.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with experience supporting individuals through trauma, addiction, eating disorders, and life transitions. I take a compassionate, collaborative approach, using evidence-based therapies to help clients feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change. I have been fortunate to serve in many different roles ranging from direct clinical care to program leadership across mental health, substance use, and eating disorder treatment settings. These experiences have deepened my understanding of not only the challenges individuals face, but also the systems of care that can support recovery. Whether I’m providing individual therapy or guiding a team of professionals, I am committed to helping each person move toward balance, growth, and a life that feels fulfilling. Outside of work, I enjoy playing video games and spending quality time outdoors with my family.

Hi, I’m Heather. Reaching out for support can feel overwhelming, and life’s stress, emotional challenges, or transitions can be hard to navigate on your own. I bring a compassionate and collaborative style to therapy. Clients describe me as attentive, warm, and genuinely present — someone who listens without judgment and meets you exactly where you are. Together, we’ll explore your experiences, honor your strengths, and create meaningful steps toward change. We’ll work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, focusing on insights and tools that help you feel more balanced, confident, and grounded over time.

I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, and life transitions — those moments when things feel unsteady and you're not quite sure how to move forward. My approach starts with building a warm, genuine relationship where you feel safe to explore what's really going on beneath the surface. From there, I bring in practical tools — often drawing on CBT and coping strategies — so you leave sessions with more than just insight, but real ways to manage day-to-day. As a parent myself, I understand how life's transitions can test us in ways we don't always expect, and I bring that same steadiness and practicality to the people I work with.

Hi, I'm so glad you're here. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to figure things out on your own. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are—without judgment, pressure, or the need to have it all together. With over 14 years of experience, I work with adolescents, college students, and adults navigating anxiety, eating disorders, life transitions, identity, relationships, and the unique challenges that come with being an athlete. As an LGBTQ+ identifying therapist, I'm committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where you feel seen, respected, and supported. I take a warm, collaborative, and holistic approach to therapy, blending evidence-based practices with an understanding of how our mental, emotional, and physical well-being are all connected. When it fits your goals, I also incorporate an integrative nutrition perspective to support your overall wellness. Outside the therapy room, you'll usually find me running, dancing, or horseback riding. As an athlete myself, I understand the highs, lows, and pressures that can come with performance, balance, and caring for both your mind and body. I believe therapy is about more than getting through hard moments—it's about building a life that feels authentic, meaningful, and sustainable. Wherever you are in your journey, you don't have to walk it alone. I'd be honored to walk alongside you.

Hi, I’m Anakarla. If you’ve been feeling anxious, stuck, hard on yourself, or unsure of who you’re becoming, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to sort it out by yourself. Many of the people I work with are used to “holding it together” on the outside, while quietly feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or questioning their direction on the inside. I’m a Latina therapist who believes therapy should feel warm, supportive, and rooted in real connection, not clinical or distant. My approach is collaborative and person-centered, which means we move at your pace and work together as a team. I see you as the expert of your own life, and my role is to help you make sense of your experiences, gently challenge what’s not serving you, and support you in building a life that feels more aligned and fulfilling. Our work together is a mix of reflection and action. We’ll explore patterns in your thoughts, emotions, and relationships, while also building practical tools you can use in your everyday life. I often incorporate approaches like CBT, ACT, DBT, and mindfulness, but in a way that feels natural, not overwhelming or overly technical. Think of it as creating a toolkit that helps you not just cope, but feel more grounded, confident, and intentional in how you live. I also believe healing doesn’t always have to feel heavy. When it feels right, I bring in humor and lightness to help you feel more at ease and human in the process.

From an early age, I felt a strong calling to help others and found deep fulfillment in making a positive difference in people’s lives. Raised in an immigrant family with limited resources, I joined the military as a way to pursue my education and create new opportunities for myself. During my time in the military, I relocated frequently and had the privilege of connecting with individuals from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and belief systems.

I help couples, individuals and adolescents address various issues such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, communication challenges, conflicts, grief, divorce, relationship break up, parenting, and blended families. I look forward to working together and supporting your growth and well being.

Hi, I'm Shantara, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), Certified Mental Health & Nutrition Clinical Specialist (CMNHS), and the founder of TEA Time Therapeutic Services LLC. I believe healing begins when we understand the connection between our Thoughts, Emotions, and Actions (T.E.A.). My goal is to provide a warm, supportive, and judgment-free space where you feel heard, challenged, and empowered to grow. My approach is collaborative, practical, and tailored to your unique needs. Using evidence-based therapies such as CBT, ACT, DBT, CPT, and Motivational Interviewing, I'll help you build healthy coping skills, gain insight, and create meaningful, lasting change. As a CMNHS, I also recognize the connection between mental and physical health, incorporating a holistic perspective when it supports your goals. Whether you're navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, relationship challenges, or life transitions, I'm here to walk alongside you as you learn to pour back into your life.
