Hello, My name is Marlea Major. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of clinical experience licensed in Florida and Georgia. My range of experience includes being a veteran, working 20 years as a first responder, counselor for inpatient care clients, Salvation Army working with clients struggling with addictions, and 8 years in the foster care system as a child therapist. I am warm, empathetic, and believe that each person is to be treated with respect, compassion, and dignity. I don’t believe in stigmatizing labels; working as a first responder and being a Veteran I understand how difficult it can be to ask for help and realize how strong you are to reach out. My approach is person-centered, psychoeducational, existential, and cognitive behavioral focusing on empowering and helping the individual to regain control within their lives and unique situations. I am happy that you are taking your first step to take back your power and when you are ready, I am here to assist your journey. I look forward to working with you!

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.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Certified Trauma Specialist, Life Coach, Author, and Presenter with over 25 years of experience empowering teens, college students, and adults to heal, grow, and thrive. Welcome! I’m Candace, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with a virtual practice dedicated to providing compassionate, strengths-based care. I specialize in supporting individuals facing challenges such as trauma, anxiety, low self-confidence, life transitions, mid-life crises, and empty nest syndrome. I understand how difficult taking the first step toward therapy can be, which is why I strive to create a safe, accepting, and comfortable space for every client. My therapeutic approach combines Solution-Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Trauma-Focused techniques to help clients recognize and shift unhealthy thought patterns, build self-confidence, and discover healthier ways of navigating life’s challenges. I also provide guidance on communication and problem-solving skills to help strengthen personal relationships and promote long-term growth. Passionate about helping people reach their goals and create meaningful change, I see therapy as a collaborative journey. I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling and Human Systems from Florida State University and bring decades of experience walking alongside clients in their healing process. Above all, I offer warmth, encouragement, and an unwavering belief in my clients’ ability to grow, heal, and thrive.

Life is full of adjustments and transitions. My goal in therapy is to accompany people in their journey towards these changes and to provide a safe space for them to heal, grow and re-discover who they are to thrive in life. I want to help individuals identify and cope with issues affecting their mental health by increasing their self-compassion with the help of mindfulness and other solution-focused interventions.

Hi! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have been practicing for over 30 years. I received my masters in counseling at the University of Memphis. I worked with college students while getting my masters with personal career counseling. After becoming licensed in Florida, I worked specifically with service members and their families with anxiety, depression, post traumatic stress disorder, spouse and child abuse and marital issues. During the past 3 years I have worked with young adults to retired adults addressing individual, work and family issues. It has been my pleasure to guide hundreds of people to a healthier, happier life style that enables them to do what they want to in life without what appears to be impossible barriers like depression, stress and anxiety.

I specialize in helping ambitious professionals and creatives break free from emotional blocks, burnout cycles, and old narratives that no longer serve them. Whether you’re overwhelmed by overthinking, disconnected from your joy, or simply tired of living on autopilot, I’ll help you find clarity, balance, and a deeper sense of self-trust. High functioning doesn’t always mean fulfilled, and it takes courage to admit when success on the outside doesn’t match how you feel inside. Our work together will blend insight with strategy, so you not only release what’s been weighing you down, but also gain the mindset and habits to move forward with confidence and purpose.
