Hi! My name is Nancy Muricken. I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Tampa FL currently accepting new clients via Telehealth! I provide individual therapy with a pinch of millennial energy and the spice from South India. That being said, I hope that you and I can soon spill the chai! Let me go first. I was born and raised in Queens, NY (just like your friendly neighborhood Spiderman) where I grew up in a South Indian household by parents and extended family from Kerala, India. Now if you are like me and was born or grew up in America but raised by an Immigrant family, there are a lot of values. traditions, and pressure that are instilled in us. Mental health is completely disregarded or taboo and Masala Chai, Vicks, and prayers became the answers to all our problems. I'm all for Chai and praying but imagine if we had proper insight and coping skills as a child in a supportive environment alongside spiritual support? We probably wouldn't be here scrolling for a therapist for our mother and father wounds. That being said, the psychodynamic approach is one of the primary approaches I utilize in therapy to help identify patterns from our childhood which affect our behaviors, actions, and relationships in our present life. I use Mindfulness and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as my other treatment methods to help clients embrace their present lives, identify patterns of thinking, and reframe negative thoughts. I am an email or phone call away. Book your appointment today! I am excited to meet you and for your journey to healing.

Hello! I'm Alesia, a licensed mental health counselor who sees individuals, couples and families. I've recognized many people are suffering in silence. If you're one of them, I want to advocate for you by teaching you how to regulate your emotions, create a more positive mental space and increase your self-esteem in the process. I became a counselor because I found excitement and fascination in understanding why people do what they do. Adding to my ability to provide that perspective in a clinical setting, I'm fulfilling my goal of positively impacting the world. If you're ready to actively change your mental, emotional, and honestly behavioral state, I'm here to help.
