Hello! My name is Dan, and I am a licensed mental health counselor. I am passionate about my profession and enjoy helping my clients achieve their individual goals. It is exciting to see a client go from where they were to where they want to be in their lives. I love to help those who are struggling in their personal or work relationships learn how to better communicate their needs and improve the quality of those relationships! This is all achieved by tailoring my sessions to the needs of each person I work with. One of the most powerful effects I have found in therapy is providing a safe space where you are heard, understood, and accepted. We all have stress and struggles at times and there is great healing in exploring and touching those feelings. Let's work together towards your goals!

Hi, I’m Allison. Whether you’re feeling burned out, stuck in unfulfilling patterns, or having challenges in your relationships, therapy can help you recover and feel more grounded. Many of the people I work with are new to therapy. They may not have a specific diagnosis or crisis, but they know something feels “off.” Clients often tell me they feel comfortable opening up with me quickly. If you're feeling overwhelmed or disconnected, know that meaningful change is possible. Let’s work together to help you feel more content, empowered, and like yourself again. Clients often tell me they feel at ease opening up to me. Many feel relieved to have a therapist who offers active guidance, rather than just listening without direction. Finding relief and reconnecting with a sense of peace is more achievable than it might feel right now—and once you start, the process of change often unfolds more quickly than you expect. I approach therapy by looking at the root cause of problems, rather than focusing on one problem at a time. I work from a systemic perspective, which means we will dive into your personal relationships, behavior patterns, and lifestyle choices which are interconnected with the issues you may be facing.

Tampa, FL - Accepting clients in FL

Since becoming a counselor, I have worked in a variety of community counseling settings. I have worked with clients from ages 3 through 80 and with individuals, couples, and families. With that breadth of experience, very little shocks or surprises me and I have gotten a pretty good sense of where the types of counseling that play to my strengths as a counselor overlap with the types of counseling that are helpful for my clients. This sense (along with learning about lots and lots of research into what helps people find and maintain mental health) has led to the following guiding principles that shape all the counseling I do: 1) The client is always in charge. I know a lot of things but you will always be the one who decides what you want to get out of counseling, how we work towards that goal, whether or not what we’re doing seems to be working, and when we’re done. 2) Change and health happen through relationships. No matter what you come in for, there are always relational implications of change and relational factors that contribute to whatever it is that you came to counseling to change. 3) Counseling should be efficient. Counseling has significant costs in time and money. I think the benefits far outweigh the costs but if I can give you the benefits while helping you save on the costs then I want to do that.

My passion in the mental health field is to encourage children and teens to become life-long advocates for their emotional, mental, and physical well-being. It is my hope that together, we will find useful strategies that can be built upon and continue to grow during both the ups and downs of adolescence and beyond. My clients often present with moderate to severe worries and anxiety around “typical” angst related to school, activities, and relationships. Sometimes the stress is sneaky and camouflaged to look like fatigue, irritability, and apathy. I find that many young people use coping skills that may not be the healthiest; however making the initial decision to seek out better solutions through counseling provides countless options for therapeutic approaches. In 2025, I proudly founded my own practice, Grand Wellness Group, in an effort to continue to provide the best support for clients, families, and supervision for clinical mental health providers.

In therapy, I counsel individuals, families, couples, and children. No matter how trivial an issue may seem, everyone has issues in life. If it is causing you emotional pain, that is a good reason to seek out help. I understand everyone has a different journey in their lives and I would like to assist you in your path to self-discovery and healing. Your issues may be stress, loneliness, sadness, frustration, or concern for a loved one. You are not alone and I am ready to help you explore strategies to help you improve your life. Each session is provided in a warm and compassionate environment. I will ask you some questions so I can understand which issues you want to focus on. Therapy is a process of learning and the rewards are great. You will develop parts of yourself that you did not know existed. This will help you to become a better parent, partner, and best friend to yourself and your loved ones. Are you ready to take that step of self-discovery to become the best version of yourself? I want to guide you in your path to self-discovery, happiness, and peace. I have been counseling clients for over 24 years and I work with all populations. My counseling modalities include Cognitive behavioral therapy, Solution-focused, and Person-Centered therapy. When I counsel children, I use all of these in addition to Play therapy. Many of the therapeutic issues we work together on are Self-esteem, relationships, communication, trauma, PTSD, anxiety, ADHD, Social skills, and grief. I am a licensed therapist and have a Masters Degree in counseling. I have spent many years counseling children, adolescents, and adults. Although therapy may look different with each population, the process is equally meaningful in all sessions.

Trauma can impact any person; but it doesn't define the person. In therapy sessions, we process feelings and emotions related to the traumatic experience/event looking to heal and move forward with resilience and self-love. I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, bilingual (Spanish and English) proudly holding that title since 2017 after graduating from NOVA Southeastern University in vibrant Miami, FL. My journey in the field has led me through 7 rewarding years in Foster Care, where I've had the privilege of making a difference. I also worked in a shelter with children and teenagers. Before my U.S. venture, back in my home country, Cuba, I earned my bachelor's degree and spent 8 fulfilling years as a Psychotherapist. For me, helping individuals become the best version of themselves isn't just a profession – it's a passion. Having spent 5 years as a Case Manager in a shelter, I understand the intricacies of challenging situations. Now, as a fervent advocate for Individual Therapy, I see it as an investment in your own well-being. Taking the step towards therapy is a decision I wholeheartedly recommend. Witnessing individuals tackle difficult situations head-on and embark on a journey of personal growth is incredibly rewarding. So, let's invest time and dedication in your well-being – it's not just therapy; it's a pathway to your own growth!

In our first session you can expect to learn more about somatic therapies, and other mind-body bridging practices. By the end of the session you will have some tools you can start using right away.

I specialize in treatments that get you grounded, with a sense of safety, acceptance of what is, and curiosity and excitement about what could be!

Since 2012, I have worked with a variety of clients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives. Life can be complicated and having someone in your corner can ease fears and worries while allowing for growth and healing. My passion as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor is working with individuals and couples who have experienced trauma and difficult times. As a wife, mom, grandmother, and dog mom, I also enjoy assisting family and friends in reaching their goals. I will be here to encourage you, support you and validate you. I know making the decision to come to therapy can be difficult, scary and leave you feeling vulnerable but taking that first step is the key to unlocking the door towards becoming your best self. You are the true expert of yourself and often just need additional encouragement to identify and explore areas that are no longer working.  Vulnerability, shame, and guilt can prevent you from seeking the help and support you need to find solace in your head, heart and life. I am a daughter of Veteran and wife of a fire fighter. I know personally the stigmas and stressors that come along with seeking treatment. I have a deep understanding and love of the firefighting, EMT, and paramedic communities. Break those chains that keep you from seeking, happiness, forgiveness, healing, and serenity. One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Having a good grasp of the very real issues with which first responders must face and handle on a daily basis I will help you navigate the issues and memories that haunt you and find real, lasting solutions for long term healing. I promise I won't bite, but I am a loud Bostonian haha!  Allow me to walk and guide you on your path to uncovering and rediscovering who you are and what you already know but struggling to see.

Pensacola, FL - Accepting clients in FL

I help adults struggling to form deep and meaningful relationships with others as a result of lonely or painful childhood experiences. My ideal client is motivated for change and is open to developing a curiosity about his or her inner experiences. As a therapist, I am relationship-focused and believe that, while it does not define us, our early life experiences form templates from which we operate in our lives. Sometimes those templates or "old ways" no longer work for us meaningfully and we find ourselves stuck. My ideal client is open to assessing relationships with others, themselves, and past experiences to bring vibrancy and enrichment to their lives. Should this be you, I want to empower you by building awareness and insight from a holistic/integrative perspective so you can respond to life with choice and freedom. You deserve to breathe easier.

Hi there! I'm Leah, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. In addition to my Master's degree and license, I have specialized training in treating trauma, anxiety and depression. I'm passionate about helping women overcome dysfunctional patterns of thought and behavior by safely navigating through past traumas, stepping outside of the people-pleasing pattern, setting boundaries and learning how to truly embrace their authentic selves. Personally, I'm a Mom, a best friend, a middle-child and free spirit. I value personal growth, freedom/independence, exploration, equality, individuality and compassion. When I'm not in the office, I love spending time with my family, traveling (there is no place I wouldn't want to go!), meditating, reading and exploring new foods.

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here. You're strong. Capable. Driven. You get things done--at work, at home, and everywhere in between. On the outside, it looks like you have it all together. But on the inside? You're exhausted. The pressure to be perfect, to please everyone, to hold it all together. It's heavy. If you're longing for peace, clarity, and space to just be--you're not alone. You don't have to keep doing this all on your own. I help high-achieving women--busy professionals, entrepreneurs, educators, healthcare providers, and moms--break free from anxiety, perfectionism, and trauma through EMDR therapy, so you can finally feel grounded, confident, and whole again! I'm April Forella, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and EMDR Certified Therapist based in Palm City, Florida. My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I integrate EMDR therapy, somatic and attachment-based approaches, and tools from CBT and Polyvagal Theory to support deep, lasting healing. Whether you're carrying the weight of childhood wounds, navigating burnout, or simply longing to feel more like yourself again, therapy with me is a space to slow down, reconnect, and grow into the version of you that feels most whole and grounded.
