I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Board Certified Art Therapist, and my approach is strength based and client centered. Although I mostly use a cognitive behavioral framework, art therapy is something special I offer to my clients knowing it can be a powerful and unique way to process emotions and experiences. Whether a client is going through a challenging life transition, suffer from more chronic clinical diagnoses or have areas of life they want to reflect on to change or improve, I encourage them to reach out for a complimentary consult call. I look forward to working with individuals on their own journey of personal growth and healing.

West Perrine, FL - Accepting clients in FL
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!

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.

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.

Hi. I'm Jessica. I am NOT a conventional therapist. I serve as a guide on the journey of personal/spiritual development, growth, empowerment and reclamation for those who are ready to dive deeper to create the life of their dreams.
My approach is holistic and wellness based which means I understand that all those patterns that may be currently keeping you from stepping into your next best Self/life served a purpose at one point in time - you won't find any judgment here. I customize your care to your specific needs to help you connect with your innate ability to heal. In our sessions, I blend compassion, some humor and a few f-bombs with holding you accountable. I help all those who are allergic to superficiality and looking to live life at a deeper level do just that. You can be spiritual + grounded af. In my work with clients, I draw most heavily on somatic therapy while also integrating mindfulness, depth psychology, shadow work, narrative therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and ecopsychology.

Relationships are important. They can bring us joy, and connection, and opportunities to grow. You talk to friends and loved ones, you spend time with them, and you likely do caring things for them.
And, how much time do you spend deepening your relationship with yourself? Do you pay attention to how you talk to yourself, how you spend time with yourself, how you care for
your Self?
It is my experience both personally and professionally that when we spend time working on our relationship with Self, not only do we become happier, and more peaceful internally- our external relationships with others improve as well.

Hi everyone! I'm Josh. Do you struggle with social anxiety and poor self-confidence? I know that overcoming it is possible! Many come to therapy for social anxiety because of childhood trauma and how it has manifested in their adult lives. Often this manifests in feelings of poor self-confidence, poor self-worth, and poor self-confidence. At its root, the fundamental belief of those who have social anxiety is the belief, “I am not enough.” Clients get into the habit of comparing themselves to others and it makes them feel inadequate and insecure. Over time clients begin to avoid situations that elicit their anxiety, particularly social situations. This can lead to social isolation and loneliness. Clients will present with complaints of frequent panic attacks, not having a romantic partner, not having friends, not being happy in their jobs and feeling disconnected from life. They are labeled by others as shy, quiet, or introverted. This scenario described myself for much of my life which gives me lived experience to better able to assist you. I help individuals combat their social fears and begin to live a rich and fulfulling life. I do this through cognitive behavioral therapy techniques primarily but also integrate solution-focused therapy, assertiveness training, exposure therapy, and acceptance & commitment therapy. Whether you're a teen struggling to make friends and socialize or you are an adult unable to speak up at work meetings or unable to ask someone out on a date, I'm here for you! Seeking therapy can be frightening but I want to assure you that you will be most welcome if you take that leap of faith!
