Therapists in Florida

Thank you for sharing information about yourself. I'm so happy that you reached out for help. I am Michael Creech, a licensed therapist. My goal is to meet you where you are by bringing a compassionate approach backed by formal training and experience and be a part of your goals in the change process. I am very personable as well as professional and I do not believe in one-sided relationships. I have a multidisciplinary, eclectic approach to therapy in which I utilize techniques and principles from a variety of modalities to include Christian based. My counseling is geared toward treating the whole person from a biopsychosocial spiritual standpoint. I view counseling as a calling and not as a career and that it is a collaborative effort in which I learn and grow as a result of every interaction. My clients describe me as a “good listener” and as someone who “makes me think”. Some of the experiences that have contributed to my professional identity and approach to mental health treatment are my formal education at Pensacola Christian College where I received a BA in Pastoral Ministry and Liberty University where I received a MA in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have worked as a therapist under regulatory agencies for 6 years and have worked in Christian Ministry since my ministerial ordination in 2003. Demographics I have served have included inpatient and outpatient care, private practice, substance abuse issues, psychotic spectrum disorders, gender identity issues, personality disorders, sex addiction, family and relationship issues, depression, anxiety, PTSD, Spirituality, and men’s issues. My experiences as a combat military veteran, teacher, father, husband, and a person who has experienced my own traumas and failures have contributed to my professional development. I look forward to getting to know you!

It is my mission to help another individual find the path to living a successful and healthy life. I have experience working with adolescents, adults and their families.

This is your therapy and an opportunity for me to help guide you through your journey and find a sense of peace and happiness.

Hi there, I’m Andrea Thomas, a licensed clinical social worker with over a decade of experience, dedicated to supporting adults, children, and families. I specialize in helping people manage stress and anxiety, work through trauma and grief, navigate life transitions, and build motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. At the heart of my practice is a simple belief: everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. In our work together, we’ll create a safe, open space where you can freely express your thoughts and emotions without judgment. When I’m not in session, you can find me enjoying my favorite music or cheering on my favorite football team, it’s part of how I recharge and stay grounded. When you’re ready, I’m here to listen, support, and walk alongside you. Let’s start the conversation toward your well-being.

Are you looking for a provider who listens? One who tailors medications to your unique needs? That is what I do. I have been in healthcare for 30 years, honing the art of nursing. I pursued extended education to be able to care for my patients more effectively. I am committed to helping you achieve balance with your mental health needs, focusing on anxiety, depression, mood disorders, PTSD, and many more. I am non-judgemental, knowing that mental health is part of our overall well-being. One in five Americans lives with a mental illness. I am here to help break down the stigma and let everyone know that their mental health matters. Medications are a crucial piece of the puzzle for many. I carefully create a care plan to help manage the distressing symptoms of anxiety and depression. I am open to working with patients to prescribe medications to manage drug and alcohol cravings as well. I can help treat childhood and Adult ADHD as well. I will encourage my patients to be active participants in their care. They may need additional therapy or treatments to manage symptoms most effectively and see true growth. I am here to provide that support and help you see progress!

I am a new mom to an infant daughter. I love being outdoors, yoga, college basketball, family/friends, sun, and books! I worked as a school counselor for 17 years, and have been seeing clients of all ages via telehealth as an LMHC since 2023. I genuinely enjoy meeting people, hearing their stories, and helping them grow and reach their goals.

As a client-centered therapist, I aim to help individuals reach their full potential by establishing a supportive relationship through active listening, acceptance, and understanding. I assist clients in recognizing their strengths and using them to set goals, gain insights, and develop new coping strategies to bring about positive changes. As a Licensed Therapist, I am committed to maintaining the highest ethical and professional standards and contributing to advancing the social work profession. With over 25 years of experience in social work, I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) fluent in two languages/cultures. I have provided counseling and therapy to individuals, couples, families, and groups using evidence-based and culturally sensitive approaches. I also offer online telehealth services.

I am a licensed mental health counselor who seeks to help clients gain insight into their mental health and/or substance abuse issues. Part of my focus is on empowering clients through self-awareness and self-compassion. I understand the power of dynamics and also work with couples and families to find cohesion. Faith-based counseling is available as well. Read

I’m an LCSW in Florida, originally from the Midwest. I came to social work as a second career after personally experiencing how therapy can change lives. I’ve been working for over 20 years with all kinds of people coping with all kinds of stress, hardships and setbacks. I love to help people increase their self awareness, self acceptance, and overall happiness.

Sometimes life just overwhelms you, and this is one of those times. Are you tired, frustrated, even confused about how to proceed? I can assist you in managing to work your way through the issue and into creating a life you love. Birth, death, marriage, divorce, empty nest, career problems are all life cycle events. When one or more of these occur, it seems to throw everything else in your life off- kilter. Avoiding the issue has not helped, and you may not know exactly how to go about addressing it. Dealing with sadness, anxiety, anger, and/or fear is challenging on your own. I will be here for you, listening, caring, maybe challenging some of your thoughts or beliefs, but always in your court. I work with adults, both individually and as couples, and I have experience with the LBGTQ+ community. My name is Carol Lazarus. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with more than 25 years experience in helping clients overcome life cycle issues. With experience in dealing with women\'s issues, family substance abuse, mood disorders, low self esteem, lack of self-confidence, communication, and rebuilding what has been broken, I would love the opportunity to see if I am the therapist that can assist you. I am a Mom, Grandmother, dog lover, a very good friend, and I may have worked my way through the same issues that are challenging you.

I am a bilingual mental health counselor with a background in Clinical Psychology and specialized training in trauma-informed care, cultural competency, and stress management. I provide therapy in both English and Spanish, offering a warm, direct, and collaborative approach that supports clients through anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relational challenges. My goal is to create a safe and affirming space where clients feel understood and empowered to make meaningful changes.

I am a problem solver who meets clients where they are and works collaboratively toward achieving their goals. My background as a certified translator and interpreter, prior to earning my degree in Clinical Social Work, gives me a deep sense of connection with people from diverse cultures, backgrounds, and experiences. For over a decade, I have worked in the education field as a Mental Health Provider and in the medical field as a Medical Social Worker. This professional experience, along with overcoming my own life adversities, has enabled me to guide clients of all ages and with various medical conditions. My ongoing, extensive training and certification in trauma and related disorders allow me to support my patients holistically as they navigate their challenges.

I received my master’s degree in social worker from the University of Central Florida in 2006. My experience has primarily been in the medical arena helping individuals and families transition through the complex medical system. I also help them navigate life changes in a positive, hands on approach. If you feel stuck due to a big life transition, struggle with self esteem, or need assistance managing anxiety I would love to help you navigate these transitions.

To feel truly seen, heard, and understood is one of the most powerful experiences we can have—and it can also be incredibly healing. Therapy offers a space where you are invited to bring your full self: your thoughts, your feelings, your fears, your hopes, and the parts of your story that may feel confusing, heavy, or difficult to carry alone. My goal is to help create that space for you—one grounded in empathy, trust, and safety. When we begin to explore who we are on a deeper level, we open the door to greater self-awareness and meaningful change. In the therapeutic relationship, I strive to support you in reconnecting with your inner voice and your emotional truths. I believe we all carry the answers we seek within us—but sometimes, life’s challenges can make them hard to hear or trust. Whether you are navigating a specific struggle or simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself, you deserve support that honors your unique story. Life can be both beautiful and incredibly complex. It brings joys, transitions, losses, and moments of uncertainty that can feel overwhelming when we’re trying to face them on our own. Without the right tools or support, stress, anxiety, sadness, or feelings of being “stuck” can take root. My hope is to walk alongside you through those challenges—to help you name what you’re feeling, explore what matters most to you, and build a stronger connection with yourself.

My name is Jesse Mozeko, a licensed marriage and family therapist in the state of Florida. I have experience working with preteens, teens, and adults going through a range of presenting problems from life transitions to psychiatric illnesses. I began my career working with children living in high stress environments, working to reduce the malicious effects of stress on physical and psychological health. Since then, I have worked independently and under supervision with more complex issues including survivors of trauma, those living with a mentally ill family member, and other wide reaching conditions such as anxiety, substance use, and depression.

Originally, and still at heart, from the Lowcountry of South Carolina, my family and I returned to Northeast Florida in 2015 once my husband retired from the military. Now, as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I am able to use my experience as a military spouse, mother of two and a bonus teen, 2 dogs, and green thumbs, to engage with my clients.

Are you having a difficult time getting through your day because your mind is wondering or you feel so down that you do not have any motivation? Do you feel confused because your mood is up and down? It may seem that it is never going to stop and I will always have these issues but I want you to know there is help out there and I can help you learn what it is that you are going through and teach you skills that help manage the feelings so you have more great days than low days. I will add some humor into our sessions because sometimes our emotions get to be too much and we need to just laugh once in a while. I love mixing different therapies because therapy techniques are not cookie cutter and one technique may work for one person but not another person. We will find what works best for you. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the concerns you have that are holding you back. Let's work together.

I'm here to guide individuals, couples, and families through life's challenges, such as depression or trauma, especially those rooted in relationships or family dynamics. I believe in your inherent wholeness and resilience, and I'm here to help you rediscover that strength within yourself. Through our work together, we'll explore your experiences and uncover the courage to embrace change and vulnerability

I am a Colombian born immigrant who came to the US to further my education and practice as a psychotherapist. During my years of experience in psychotherapy I learned to incorporate the creative side of the human brain to facilitate expression and better flow the emotional communication. I have helped many people work through coping with life changes, stress, depression, anxiety, trauma and other multiple issues... I thrive in connecting with the person and developing trust, hope and faith in the therapeutic -and creative- process.

It takes courage to face our psychological challenges AND to take the first steps towards change, if you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you all the way!

Hello I am a Licensed Mental Health Clinician (LMHC) who operates a virtual private practice in Florida. While I have been in the helping field since 2003, I transitioned to a clinical role in 2015 after completing my graduate studies at the Lincoln University in PA. In my practice I work with teens and adults who experience conflict or disconnection in their relationships whether it's intimate, peer, or family, those who experience difficulty regulating their emotions. I help my client live the life they desire and have supportive relationships with themselves and others.

Hey, I'm Matt. Life may not offer a lot of certainty, but one thing is for sure: everyone struggles sometimes. You might feel like you struggle MOST of the time. I’d like to counter that notion with the belief that embracing those struggles can be the key to overcoming them. To be clear, embracing our struggles doesn’t mean they simply disappear, but I believe we can learn to acknowledge and manage them in a way that will allow us to feel more empowered and prepared to face them. When we live with anxiety and depression, it makes sense that we would want a permanent fix, but I believe that expectation too often leads to feelings of hopelessness simply because that’s not how anxiety and depression work. What if, instead of waiting for them to magically disappear, we learned to acknowledge those feelings and used our own unique experiences with them to get ourselves through the struggles? If you are struggling, I’d like to offer a safe space for you to talk it out and hopefully come away with a different perspective on your ability to manage your anxiety and/or depression. I might point out a turn here and there, but you’ll do the driving!

When life gives us the unexpected sometimes, we need support systems that may seem untraditional to some. As a therapist, I welcome all the doubts that you may have about engaging in the therapeutic process. Therapy is a partnership, meaning I will be there to motivate and challenge you to arrive at the desired outcome. Most of my career has had a focus on working with individuals who suffer from dual diagnosis, trauma, and poor coping skills. Each treatment plan is developed personally for each individual meeting their own personal needs. My primary treatment orientation includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Mindfulness. I also have a passion for working with those suffering from burnout in the workplace and those seeking personal self-care plans. My interaction from beginning to end will also include trauma-informed care. I thank you in advance for letting me help you achieve one of your many goals in life, freedom from the bondage that is holding you from your peace!
