Boca Raton, FL - Accepting clients in FL

Melissa has been a dedicated mental health professional since the early 2000s. Over the years, she has learned that creating a space where people feel safe, heard, and understood is the foundation of true healing. With her approachable, down-to-earth demeanor, Melissa helps clients feel at ease, knowing they are in a judgment-free zone from the moment they walk through her door. Having a deep understanding of life’s challenges, including emotional and chronic pain, she recognizes how overwhelming it can be to simply function at times. While Melissa is compassionate and supportive, she is also honest and direct, providing authentic feedback to help clients uncover their personal truths. Her goal is to help you become the truest version of yourself, free from self-imposed limitations, and equipped with the skills to navigate life’s stressors with greater ease. Melissa specializes in working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, and the lasting impact of childhood trauma. She believes that the way we think and cope is often shaped by our past experiences, and she is dedicated to helping clients break free from patterns that no longer serve them. Expect to explore new perspectives, tools, and coping strategies to build resilience and improve daily functioning. And don’t be surprised if she cracks a joke or two—therapy can be heavy, but Melissa believes humor can be a powerful tool in making the process more comfortable and approachable. Melissa says, “There is nothing more beautiful or empowering than watching someone fully embrace themselves—strengths, weaknesses, and all—with compassion and clarity.” She looks forward to walking alongside you on your journey, offering unwavering support and encouragement. Reach out today to schedule a session—she’s ready to be your biggest cheerleader.

Boulevard Heights, FL - Accepting clients in FL

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 20 years of experience working with diverse individuals in the community, private practice, and residential substance abuse treatment. Never in a million years did I ever think providing counseling to individuals, couples, families, and groups, would be the career to captivate my heart….but it is! My specialties are working with clients who may be suffering from traumatic incidents, substance abuse, various forms of anxiety (PTSD, stress disorders), depression, self-esteem, and gender identity. Making the decision to receive any form of mental health counseling can be taxing, however, the results are often positive and rewarding. Learning to face your fears in a healthy and appropriate manner is a sign of growth and maturity. It is not an easy task. You will cry, laugh, and maybe feel a little uncomfortable at times. This is just the therapeutic process working to make you emotionally stronger. *Please note that my preference for treatment sessions are individual and group therapy. However, I do provide a limited number of couples or family therapy sessions for special circumstances.

I am a board-certified therapist in multiple states and over 20 years of counseling experience, with a proven success of reaching remission in Depression with my clients in one session; this is within the 95th percentile of clinicians measured. I am passionate about effecting change and helping work with people to achieve insight in order to gain maximum potential and reach their most desired visions and goals. I know personally and professionally, how difficult it is to get here and I am proud of your first step and commitment to change. I know I can be of valued support as we work together to reach success, insight, and overcome emotional and psychosocial stressors. A little more about me; I was born and raised in Florida. I did my undergraduate at Florida State University, and moved to Virginia to attend Eastern Virginia Medical School, where I studied clinical counseling and received my Master’s in Art Therapy. As a military spouse, we relocated many times, having to redevelop my career each duty station, which gave me a myriad of experiences with various populations. This has lead me to focus on occupational counseling and the effects of stress on our mental health. My passion for treatment is trauma and life experiences that lead us to feel fearful, unsafe, and saddened; sometimes with no explanation as to why we feel the way we do. I work with my client’s in a person-centered format with cognitive-behavioral underpinnings and psychoeducation to not only work through and build a better understanding of ourselves but the experiences and beliefs that built us and ways to endure and build resiliency to better manager those feelings so they are not as overwhelming in the future.

Winter Garden, FL - Accepting clients in FL

Hi, I am a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on identity transformation! I work with those who feel the achievements are there, yet still feels misaligned in what you do versus who you truly are. This identity crisis shows up in subtle ways - the anxiety that greets you before meetings, the exhaustion from maintaining the "strong Black woman" image, the longing for relationships where you can finally be real. I want you to know that transformation is possible. That having more alignment and authenticity in the way you show up is possible. In our work together, we'll move beyond just understanding why you code-switch or people-please and help your system find its way back to your truth using Internal Family Systems therapy. Imagine walking into any room fully grounded in who you are. Picture making decisions from your core self, not from old wounds. It's time to transform your relationship with yourself - to heal those outdated identities and create a life that truly feels like yours.

Nokomis, FL - Accepting clients in FL

Hello, I am Viktoria. Life doesn't always go as planned, and transitions, illness, and trauma are rarely anticipated. Are you struggling with self-defeating patterns that are causing depression, anxiety, and /or a feeling of being stuck? Do you want to make changes in your personal and professional life? Do you have challenges in your relationship? Individuals have unique and individual needs, which should be recognized. Most of the time, you will be able to handle the situation with the help of your friends and family or on your own. There are times when you might need professional guidance and support to learn specific techniques to help you manage your thoughts and feelings. An important aspect of therapy is the opportunity to explore feelings of loneliness, anxiety, depression, grief, and shame, and to begin the process of creating positive and lasting changes. This takes place in a non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship based on empathy, trust, safety, and compassion. My style is calm, warm, and relaxed, and I believe in creating a safe environment for you in which compassion, support, and humor can flourish. Together, we can gain insight and understanding of the relationships between emotions, core beliefs and behaviors in order to find solutions to the problems you are facing.

Hi. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I received my Masters from the University of West Florida and have been practicing for 18 years. I provide a safe space for clients to work through complex thoughts and feelings. I love Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) because it helps clients to recognize distortions in thinking that are creating problems so they can reevaluate them in the light of reality. I also love Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) which incorporates positive psychology principles and practices, and helps clients change by constructing solutions rather than focusing on the problems.
