Hi, I’m Evelyn! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and trauma-informed therapist, and I provide therapy in both English and Spanish. I know how overwhelming life can feel when you’re facing challenges like anxiety, depression, relational trauma, or infidelity. My goal is to walk alongside you, offering support and tools to help you heal, grow, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. With over 9 years of experience, I work with children, adolescents, and adults, helping them navigate life’s difficult moments. I understand the struggles of mental health not only through my professional training but also through my own personal experiences. These experiences allow me to connect with empathy and compassion, offering guidance that feels both professional and deeply human. I strive to create a safe and welcoming space where you can explore your challenges at your own pace. Together, we focus on building confidence in communication, setting healthy boundaries, and shifting unhelpful thought patterns. I also use evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which can be powerful tools for managing anxiety, processing trauma, and promoting emotional healing.

Hi there! I'm a therapist who specializes in helping people overcome people-pleasing tendencies and trauma. You might be tired of constantly putting the needs of others before your own, feeling like you're never enough, or struggling to set healthy boundaries. It can be overwhelming to navigate these challenges on your own, but together, we can work towards building your self-esteem, creating space for your own needs, and developing new ways of communicating with others. If you've experienced trauma, it can be difficult to trust others and feel safe in your everyday life. You might be struggling with anxiety, depression, or other symptoms that make it hard to move forward. I want you to know that healing is possible, and you don't have to go through this alone. Using evidence-based therapies like cognitive-behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy, I can help you process your experiences, reduce distressing symptoms, and move towards a more fulfilling life.

Do you have habits, hang-ups, or challenges that feel impossible to shake? I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore what’s going on in your life and work toward practical solutions. Together, we’ll set realistic goals, develop coping skills, and build strategies that help you feel more in control, balanced, and confident. Since 2014, I have been helping clients recognize unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with healthier ways of thinking. I focus on building habits that lift mood, strengthen confidence, and support meaningful progress, while teaching practical tools like deep breathing and relaxation exercises. I also have extensive experience supporting people in recovery from addiction, including four years as a substance abuse counselor in a men’s residential treatment center. I help clients break old patterns, build coping strategies, and create realistic relapse-prevention plans. I work with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship challenges, helping them gain insight into what’s contributing to their symptoms and shift patterns that improve overall well-being. I specialize in supporting men navigating stress, relationships, divorce, or pressures to “hold it all together,” including struggles with addictions like pornography or substance use. Together, we focus on building resilience, improving relationships, and creating balance and fulfillment. Whether this is your first time in therapy or you’ve tried it before, my goal is to provide a compassionate, supportive environment where you can gain insight, practice new skills, and make meaningful changes in your life.

Hello, my name is Takiyah Thomas Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida with 5 years of experience. I want to start affirming you by saying "You are improving your mental health symptoms every day." I'm stating this because you made the healthy choice to seek therapy. As your therapist I will always be on the lookout for strengths and empowering tools that I can use to keep you motivated to stay the course. Why? Because many times our maladaptive responses to our mental health symptoms form habits that require motivation and practice to unlearn. I will be there every step of the way to encourage you to keep moving forward. You got this, but it's nice to have your own personal cheerleader encouraging you and believing in you.

I firmly believe that one of the bravest steps a person can take is to begin understanding their own story. Have you ever felt overwhelmed by depression, anxiety, or the weight of past traumas? Perhaps you're navigating a significant life transition or embarking on a journey of self-discovery, especially within the LGBTQ community. These emotions can leave you feeling paralyzed, unsure of where to start, and stuck in a cycle of frustration and self-doubt. If any of this resonates with you, please know that you're not alone. I'm a seasoned licensed mental health counselor with over 15 years of experience, having held my license for a decade. My practice covers a wide spectrum of mental health challenges, including depression, anxiety, trauma, substance abuse, life transitions, and support for the LGBTQ population. My approach to therapy is deeply personal, tailored to recognize your unique strengths. I'm a strong advocate for a collaborative partnership between us, where you play an active role in your healing journey. In our sessions, I draw from effective techniques like cognitive behavioral therapy and solution-focused therapy to help ease your symptoms. We'll also explore the roots of unresolved emotions and past negative experiences that might be impacting your current well-being. My core objective is to guide you in regaining control over your life by helping you reframe your thought processes. I'm here to support you on your path to healing and personal growth. Your story matters, and together, we can navigate the challenges you're facing.

I am a clinical social worker, therapist & life coach. I collaborate with clients in facilitating their ability to navigate their journey through change. I provide clients the opportunity to learn, change and grow, and I provide guidance for them to learn healthy adaptive ways to improve their response to encounters with life stressors and challenging life situations. Clients are engaged in various evidence based therapeutic interventions and the exploration and discovery of their untapped potential, so they can harness the necessary skills and strategies to facilitate behavioral change. In the scope of my practice I aim to empower clients through sessions that are based on a holistic, client driven approach. I view clients through the lens of their personal environment, as their well-being is significantly shaped by their environment. In addressing clients presenting issues, I take into consideration the correlation between their presenting issues and their environment; i.e., social, cultural and physical, that contribute to current challenging life circumstances. Focus is given to past experiences and current situations to help them navigate their therapy encounter and future successfully.

It is time to invest yourself! The first step to changing our circumstances is acknowledging something isn’t working. The process of change takes courage. My approach in counseling is to create an encouraging environment which my clients can find the strength to make those first steps into the unknown. I graduated from Palm Beach Atlantic University with a bachelors degree in science of psychology and a minor in communication. I then went on to receive a Masters degree in counseling from Webster University. After my education I went on to gain clinical experience in many different areas over the next 18 years including, but not limited to inpatient psychiatric facilities, intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, group therapy, marriage and family counseling, individual counseling, and substance abuse counseling. Licensed in the state of FLorida (MH10911) as a mental health counselor, I aim to provide quality care. I specialize in couples counseling, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, mens issues, family therapy, job stress, interpersonal issues, child therapy, and most other conditions.

I use a client-centered approach most often and evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavior therapy or motivational interviewing. I'll give an open, nonjudgmental space to help you move through rather than around difficult thoughts, feelings, and situations. I can help with a variety of concerns from adjusting to life changes, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder and/or unresolved trauma. For trauma work, there a few methods that we discuss and choose depending on needs: EMDR, CPT and NET. Each trauma intervention is quite different in method but the ultimate goal is the same: post traumatic growth.

I am here to confide in with a non judgemental attitude. I would love to have the opportunity to help you find yourself and become the best version of yourself. All I ask is for you to be open to positive change and brave enough to take the first step and reaching out. I know sometimes it's hard to seek and ask for help but you can do it!

Looking forward to walking with you as you start your journey to better and stronger health!

I am Gillian. I am a natural born empath. Do you struggle with the push through mentality? I want the individuals I work with to feel heard, to feel understood, to know they can be 100 percent themselves with zero judgment. I know finding the right therapist can be difficult. My approach is Person Centered based. This means I wholeheartedly believe a person has the capacity for growth. My specialties include working with individuals struggling with depression, anxiety, grief, and addiction. I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Based Therapy. I can help with navigating complex and uncomfortable emotions. Seeking therapy is an act of prioritizing yourself. It takes courage to be vulnerable. It can be difficult to get to a place of peace and find joy in the simplest of things when you are in that so to speak tunnel.

My career began outside of mental health, in brutal corporate environments (Arthur Andersen, PwC, Korn Ferry) where I earned an MBA in International Marketing from George Washington University, completed postgraduate work at Emory University, and engaged in complex, multi-stakeholder projects across the U.S., Asia, and Europe. Nearly a decade ago, I shifted focus from business development, talent acquisition and organizational performance to personal transformation. I have worked in a psychiatric hospital, residential treatment centers, and private practice, specializing in trauma resolution and identity restoration. I worked exclusively with convicted felons for 3-years which, by matter of necessity, forced me to learn and refine therapeutic techniques beyond anything I could have imagined. This combination of global business acumen and advanced clinical training allows me to meet executives at an entirely different level than most therapists, offering a process that is both strategically rigorous and deeply human.

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!
