Hello! I work with people who want help finding ways to live a more fulfilling life. As a therapist, I help people recognize their strengths as we work together to overcome difficulties. Almost all of us struggle with many of the same questions. "Am I good enough?" "Why do I feel like I don't matter?" "Will I ever be truly happy when I seem to make the same choices over and over again?" Do you want to manage anxiety? Do you feel depressed? Have you experienced a trauma? Do you find yourself unable to finish projects or find your car keys? Are the kids struggling? Whatever is going wrong, a safe place to talk, knowing your trust will never be compromised, is a wonderful gift you can give yourself. During the first visit, we'll talk about what you want to see happen. Together will come up with a plan. Lasting change is possible. You can create a happy and fulfilling life.

Hello, my name is Takiyah Thomas Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida with 5 years of experience. I want to start affirming you by saying "You are improving your mental health symptoms every day." I'm stating this because you made the healthy choice to seek therapy. As your therapist I will always be on the lookout for strengths and empowering tools that I can use to keep you motivated to stay the course. Why? Because many times our maladaptive responses to our mental health symptoms form habits that require motivation and practice to unlearn. I will be there every step of the way to encourage you to keep moving forward. You got this, but it's nice to have your own personal cheerleader encouraging you and believing in you.

I am a licensed therapist who is passionate about helping clients navigate burnout. I am passionate because I have been there and was tired of getting unhelpful answers from people who meant well but did not seem to understand. Advice like ‘sleep it off’ and ‘take a deep breath’ we're common and it felt like I was putting a bandaid on a gaping wound. I promise, life does not need to be a constant cycle of burning out and starting again. Through our work together we will explore ways to ‘stitch’ the gaping wound so you are actually able to heal and move towards a more balanced life. Through our work together I will use imagery and analogies to help you better understand how and why your body and mind is reacting the way it is. Like a birds eye view, I am able to see some of the signs that are right in front of you but are too zoomed in to see clearly. In a non-judgmental space I use education and a bit of humor to help you see the full picture and move towards a healthier balance.

My name is Algelis Gonzalez, though I am commonly known as Al. My motivation to become a therapist stems from my personal journey. Growing up in a Latino culture, I developed a curiosity about people both within my community and beyond. This curiosity has driven me to understand the reasons behind our behaviors, both positive and negative. Throughout my career as a therapist, I continue to learn and grow, drawing from the vast knowledge available in the field. I am deeply committed to helping my clients embrace their true selves, regardless of their personality traits—whether they are humorous, quiet and shy, hesitant to trust, or feeling frustrated with the world. I believe that everyone is welcome in my practice. Recognizing that none of us are perfect and that we are all striving to make sense of life’s complexities, I focus on exploring my clients’ experiences with respect and understanding. My goal is to facilitate their growth in ways they may not have previously thought possible.

Between social expectations, family and work/school and relationship pressures, and the daily grind, it's easy for us to get lost or stumble. But you're not alone. As your therapist, I'm here to help you navigate your way. In your therapeutic journey, we’ll dig into the noise that may cloud your ability to understand your true self in order to create the change in you life that you want to embody. I am committed to helping you find your way back to the self that you want to be. I'm Stephen Kaplan, a psychotherapist with 15+ years of experience counseling adults, young adults, and adolescents. Before entering private practice, I worked with high-performing adolescents and young adults. In the Gay/Queer community, I spent nine years as a group facilitator with Q-Action and the StopAIDS Project in San Francisco. I am affirming of people all along the sexual and gender spectrums, including those who identify as Gay, Queer, Bi/Pan, Lesbian, Asexual/Aromantic, Trans, Nonbinary, or who are questioning. I also provide specific support for clients on the Autism spectrum, clients with ADHD, those diagnosed with or thinking they may have anxiety, and also those who may identify with Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder. I am a passionate singer of classical, pop music, and show tunes. You can often find me at a local karaoke night. I'm an avid traveler and am recently back from an extended sabbatical having touched 5 continents. I enjoy cooking (and eating) diverse cuisines, speaking Spanish in conversation, occasionally dancing salsa or merengue, and watching Star Trek.

As a therapist, I strive to embody the qualities that many people find hard to access. While I prioritize being caring, empathetic, and supportive, I also bring a grounded perspective to our work together. I utilize evidence-based therapies, but I recognize that some of the conventional interventions seen in textbooks may not resonate in today’s rapidly changing world. My focus is on your strengths, allowing me to customize your treatment in a way that makes therapy engaging, challenging, and ultimately effective.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a structured, time-limited approach that focuses on the relationship between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. My experience with CBT has been enlightening, both for my personal development and my work with clients.

A wise man once said, “Mental strength is not the ability to stay out of the darkness; it’s the ability to sit present in the darkness knowing that the light will shine again”. I am an influencer of change and a strong believer that your perspective will take you as far as you can see.

Hello there I’m Johnny, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Miami, Florida. Outside of my work, I’m someone who loves to explore new places, try different foods, and spend time outdoors. Traveling gives me perspective and reminds me how much there is to learn from different people and cultures. I also enjoy cooking, scuba diving, and finding quiet moments near the ocean whenever I can. I’ve always had a curious side—I’m fascinated by astronomy and love collecting action figures, which is something that’s stuck with me since childhood. Those small interests keep me grounded and remind me to make space for the things that bring joy. Family is important to me, I value humor, honesty, and connection, both in my personal life and in the relationships I build every day. I believe that who we are outside of our work matters just as much as what we do, and I try to live in a way that reflects that balance.
