Do you feel like you have a million moving pieces in your life and you are just trying to figure out how to manage it all and continue to function? Are you finding that the demands of life have been taking a toll on your relationships and more importantly, yourself? Sometimes it can feel like life has just become too much, and having some additional support can help you see through all that is weighing you down. I take an individualized approach to counseling, meeting each person where they are with their needs and their strengths to help navigate through those feelings of being overwhelmed to build confidence in yourself and recognize the strength within. I provide a safe space for conversation and exploration, with gentle guidance in helping you determine what has been making you feel stuck, while together we uncover a path where that burden is reduced and you feel like you can breathe again. I have extensive experience working individually with clients in managing anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns, as well as with parents and caregivers who are trying to navigate circumstances with children coping with medical, behavioral, and emotional needs. Sometimes life can feel like too much, and you do not have to navigate it alone. I am flexible with scheduling with my clients, so please reach out and schedule to see if we can find something that works for you.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, offering in-person and telehealth therapy. Many of the people I work with have been holding everything together for a long time and are realizing it’s finally time to prioritize their own well-being and put themselves first. I specialize in working with trauma survivors, depression and anxiety, and individuals in recovery from addiction. My clinical background includes working with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, individuals with dual diagnoses, and those living with chronic mental illness. This experience has shaped a grounded, trauma-informed approach that meets people with care, steadiness, and respect for the complexity of their experiences. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside while struggling internally with anxiety, low mood, or the lingering impact of past experiences that continue to affect their lives today. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and paced to your nervous system. Therapy with me focuses on helping you find relief from pain and anxiety while building a sense of safety that allows for deeper healing. Together, we work toward greater self-understanding and the ability to build a life that feels steadier, more meaningful, and aligned with who you are becoming.

Hi, I’m Annie, an LMHC who works with women and girls struggling with anxiety, overthinking, and attachment-related patterns in relationships.

In our work together, we’ll explore where these patterns come from and how they’re showing up in your life today.

Sometimes life can be challenging, but it doesn't always have to be. "You're not failing, you're healing" from Yvonne's book, Healing Between Sessions: An EMDR Supplemental Workbook. You may just need someone to talk to, to help you work out your problems and to listen. You may also be experiencing recent or past trauma that you, "just can't get over", so you suffer in silence, being re-traumatized. Well, you don't have to work through these difficult times alone. Let's Talk. As a certified EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist, I treat individuals living with PTSD/Trauma. As an adoption/foster care therapist, I have experience working with individuals living with attachment issues, related to negative interpersonal experiences. I use meditation practices and active listening in a holistic approach.

Therapy is a confidential space to slow down, reflect honestly, and gain a deeper understanding of what is happening in your life, and why certain thoughts, emotions, and patterns continue to resurface. Couture Counseling Services was founded on the idea that therapy should be crafted with authenticity and care. People deserve more than simply a generic approach to healing. An effective therapeutic experience offers something rare: a place to speak openly, feel understood, and practice meaningful work without judgment. It can help you untangle old patterns, strengthen relationships, and move through life with more clarity, intention, and self-trust. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida providing virtual therapy for children, adolescents, adults, and couples. Over the past four years in private practice, I have worked with clients from all walks of life who are struggling to navigate anxiety, mood disorders, trauma, PTSD, neurodivergence, attachment issues, parenting stress, psychotic disorders, grief, relationship challenges, and major life transitions. Some clients come in knowing exactly what hurts or feels overwhelming. Others know something feels off. Either way, we start there. My style is warm, thoughtful, adaptable, and deeply attuned. Sessions are intentionally structured to support progress while still feeling relaxed, genuine, and conversational rather than overly clinical. I blend evidence-based approaches with artistic expression, curiosity, humor, empathy, and practical insight. Together, we identify goals, understand patterns, explore how the past echoes in the present, and build strategies that support meaningful, lasting change.

John Checkett is the first man in history to earn a master's degree in Women's Studies in Florida. How many times has this happened to you: You've made an innocent remark, and the other person distorts it and blames you for the distortion, not for what you actually said. That's called the Strawman Argument and is a common problem of communication -- communication typically being the single biggest problem couples have. Communication is one of the social sciences, and one of John's specialties, along with Women's Studies, Pastoral Psychology and Clinical Social Work. He helps high-functioning men and women free themselves from low self-esteem and negative thinking. As a former officer in the Theosophical Society and a former professional psychic, he firmly believes in the value of Spirituality to Mental Health. He can also help with exercise and nutrition, to help create a holistically healthy situation for you. Whether you're dealing with anxiety or depression, relationship problems, or just feel overwhelmed, Prof Checkett is here to help -- even with time management! You might feel bit nervous about starting therapy, but he's extremely easy to talk to, knowledgeable in a wide variety of subjects, and very media-literate. Most people feel better after a session. In a short time we can get you unstuck and back to living a happy life again.

Anxiety, depression, and relationship issues are experiences that many of us encounter at various times in our lives. If you are feeling overwhelmed by negative emotions or believe you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any combination of stressors affecting your peace of mind and relationships, "you don't have to keep feeling this way." You are not alone in your struggles, and you deserve to regain the peace of mind and joy that seem to elude you right now. "Let's find a way forward together - with compassion, clarity, and lasting change." My primary goal is to help you transition from merely feeling good to truly living well. Whether you are facing a specific crisis or a slow accumulation of challenges that has left you feeling unlike yourself, my clinical work offers a safe, judgment-free space to begin moving toward greater clarity and well-being. I draw on a carefully integrated blend of evidence-based frameworks, selecting and tailoring techniques based on each client's unique needs, history, and goals. My therapeutic approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Process-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with mind-body techniques. This approach is grounded in the belief that lasting change requires attending to the whole person — mind, body, and the relational world we inhabit. Through ACT, you will learn to be more psychologically present, connect with your values, and make space for life’s inevitable pain. You will also discover how to take actionable steps despite emotional discomfort and cultivate an appreciation for each moment in your life. While my specialty is brief therapy, some situations may require an extended therapeutic relationship, which can be beneficial for adults and parents dealing with complex mental health challenges and navigating difficult child-rearing adjustments at home.

Hi, my name is Morgan. Do you ever feel that your life is nothing but a big puzzle and that some pieces are missing? You are not quite sure how to find those pieces. And if you do, you don't know where they fit. So you look for someone to help you find the pieces and hopefully, put them where they should go. It's not always an easy, but once completed, you feel whole. I was there once. At the age of 21, I decided to leave the U.S. and travel abroad by myself for 6 months. Then it was off to Central America. My eyes were wide open! I loved to experience different cultures. And my curiosity for differences never went away. A college mentor told me about the field of social work. So I got my MSW and thus began a new career. After years of working in the field and at various occupations, I decided to join DOD and become a Clinical Social Worker for the Navy. After 14 years of government work, I went into private practice. Now I'm here and I love it! It isn't everyone who can love what they do and do what they love. I'm waiting to hear from you; excited to hear your story and maybe share a little bit of mine so we can connect and build a rapport. You are the center of this journey and it is a humbling experience for me to be a part of it. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi! I'm Dorian. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida - a Jax native with a recent move south to the Space Coast. I received my Masters of Social Work from Florida State University in 2014 focusing on clinical social work. I approach therapy with flexibility and adaptability, focusing on what will best align with you, the client. But, of note, I do so very casually, honestly, conversationally, and course, hilariously (the latter, though subjective, has been confirmed. By me.) . Opening yourself up to therapy can be intimidating! A bit scary! But there's no requirement stating you must dread it. Through my views on mental health, self help, and all kinds of therapy - combined with, well, my personality - it seems that I've become adept at a sort of "stealth therapy." Admittedly self-defined, I'd best explain this by saying that sessions are conversational, instead of a "traditional" therapist-role to client-role back and forth. Just kidding. But, I approach therapy in a way I . I don't speak in riddles, and I won't pretend that I know you better than you know you. I listen, I hear your words -- your input has value and I will never dismiss you or your concerns.

You are here hoping to find that therapist who stands out to you because you want to find someone who can help you. The search can be overwhelming for some. Most of the profiles of therapists are going to say similar things. Most of which should be standard like brakes on a car. I cannot promise I'm the right one for you. Here is what I can tell you about my approach. I believe in being practical which means I will not use a lot of psycho-babble or fancy strategies. I have a tendency to be blunt. My wife says I'm the "bluntest politest man" she has ever met. I'm going to be real with you. I love couples/marriage counseling, and that is my main focus. However, about half of my clients have always been individuals. Some people just need a place to vent. Others need help solving a problem, and most people need a little of both. I know therapy might be a little intimidating or even scary to some. Try to think of it as a massage for your brain. It's a place where you can say whatever you want guilt-free.
