St. Petersburg, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Hi, I’m a therapist who believes therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or clinical to be effective. I help people sort through stress, self-doubt, relationship tension, and life transitions—with clarity, compassion, and a healthy dose of humor. My clients often tell me they chose me because I feel relatable and real, and because I’m not afraid to laugh with them even when things are tough.
I’m straightforward and down-to-earth. I’ll meet you where you are without judgment, help you challenge what’s keeping you stuck, and walk alongside you as you make sense of what’s working—and what isn’t. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. I believe in real conversations, real growth, and helping you feel like yourself again (or maybe for the first time).
Whether you’re navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship struggles, or just trying to feel more grounded in your life, I’m here to help you reconnect with your strength, your clarity, and your sense of possibility.
You don’t have to be perfect or polished. Just bring yourself—we’ll take it from there.

Hi there, I'm Jenni!
Feeling stuck and frustrated? Struggling to deal with the loss of a loved one? Trying to find balance in your life while coping with chronic illness? Expecting an upcoming change? Not able to sleep or stay on top of things in your life? I am here to help!
Therapy cannot be effective if we are not meeting your specific needs and goals. I want to meet you where you are and together identify a path forward. I like to understand you, your values, and your background while also giving you solution-focused interventions you can utilize to make changes. If talking it through without homework is the way you want to go, that is fine too! We are all capable of change and moving forward but sometimes it is the dialogues in our head, relationships, or other factors that are getting in our way. Therapy is a great place to work through those and be more connected with what you value in your life. Let's work together!

Hi! My name is Nancy Muricken. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Tampa FL currently accepting new clients via Telehealth! I provide individual therapy with a pinch of millennial energy and the spice from South India. That being said, I hope that you and I can soon spill the chai! Let me go first. I was born and raised in Queens, NY (just like your friendly neighborhood Spiderman) where I grew up in a South Indian household by parents and extended family from Kerala, India. Now if you are like me and was born or grew up in America but raised by an Immigrant family, there are a lot of values. traditions, and pressure that are instilled in us. Mental health is completely disregarded or taboo and Masala Chai, Vicks, and prayers became the answers to all our problems. I'm all for Chai and praying but imagine if we had proper insight and coping skills as a child in a supportive environment alongside spiritual support? We probably wouldn't be here scrolling for a therapist for our mother and father wounds. That being said, the psychodynamic approach is one of the primary approaches I utilize in therapy to help identify patterns from our childhood which affect our behaviors, actions, and relationships in our present life. I use Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as my other treatment methods to help clients embrace their present lives, identify patterns of thinking, and reframe negative thoughts. I am an email or phone call away. Book your appointment today! I am excited to meet you and for your journey to healing.

I am doctoral-trained therapist who integrates evidenced based clinical practices in ways that can meet your unique needs/challenges. For instance, I will utilize your strengths, resources and culture in order to explore problems from multiple vantage points. And, I will develop a treatment plan that incorporates co-existing issues. Whether you are experiencing family problems, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or another issue, I will facilitate conversations where solutions to the problem become more accessible and visible: I believe my clients have the capacity and agency to take actions that are right for them.
These are times of uncertainty and challenges for many people. Each person, relationship and family is impacted differently. I am trained to work with individuals, couples, children and families; hence, I am prepared to offer you or your family comprehensive and holistic recommendations.
This can be that first step toward an experience where the destination will be determined by each of you. If this speaks to you, I invite you to contact me and schedule a consultation.
