Therapists in Florida

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.

The journey of healing at times requires support, sacred listening, and gentle guidance. I am here to assist you. I specialize in working with adults who are experiencing the challenging effects of grief, trauma, increased stress & anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, and Identity issues. Michele Nicole Bradford has been supporting individuals therapeutically for 20 years. She has a Bachelor’s in Psychology, a dual Master’s in Marriage & Family Therapy and School Counseling, as well as a certification in Spiritual Counseling & Companioning. Because of her immense experience in working with individuals, children, and families, she has been able to gain and provide numerous tools to help one to be able to live a more healed, free, and authentic life. Michele created the motto “ME In Detail” to help facilitate your own personal soul-care healing and growth movement because “YOU are worth it!” When you take your leap with the “ME In Detail" motto, you are informing yourself and the universe that YOU are ready to own your life in full detail. Michele understands that the journey of healing is a unique experience for each individual that requires time, spaciousness, and gentle support. What makes taking your own leap of faith with Michele different is that she has and continues to do the “in detailed” self-work herself. She realizes that we must continuously care for ourselves at the soul level.

Hello, I am Juliana, I am a faithful believer that we all came to this life to enjoy every moment to the fullest.

Many people avoid facing their emotions or situations for fear of being judged or attacked. Today I want to congratulate you for having the courage to seek help as that requires courage. Congratulations on making the decision, thinking of yourself and giving yourself the opportunity to live the life you have always wanted. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients who have dealt with Trauma, Domestic Violence, Grief, Anxiety, Depression and more. I work with people offering assistance in learning to cope with emotional distress, past or present, as well as providing tools to make positive changes.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist nearing 20 years’ experience, I work with a foundation of Solution Focus and Systemic Therapy. I’m often looking for "the funny" in the moment and the world around me. I greatly enjoy sarcasm, snark, and satire. I'm fairly casual but have been told I "Clean up well", and clients have told me in the past they appreciate that I do not come across as "stuffy". I'm often daydreaming of going on cruises with my wife and occasionally think about bringing our children as well. I treasure a long nap in a hammock, and I love movie. Once upon a time I even submitted a short film to the Cannes Film Festival (wasn't selected) but I did enter. Prior to being a therapist, I found myself listening and caring, as people would end up just talking to me and telling me their life story. I decided I should put that to good use. Additionally, growing up my family was fortunate to be able to adopt and quickly we became a larger family that could not remember when my sister was not part of the family. Through the process, I realized how important family and relationships. I appreciate and look forward to the chance to help others get through the rough patches, when life hits hard. When the answer is not easily found, we take time to look at all the options and find something, at least one step towards better. We're not looking for perfection, just looking for progress, a little bit here and there.

My name is LaRhonda Lang. I am an African American therapist who values creating a space that honors both your individual story and the bigger cultural contexts we live in. I know that therapy can sometimes feel intimidating, but I offer a space where you can bring your whole self- your thoughts, your emotions, and your lived experiences- WITHOUT JUDGEMENT. I'm here to listen, support, and help you find strategies that actually fit your life. Your therapy is tailored just for you.

Are you experiencing challenges that are interfering with your emotional health and wellbeing? Do you feel your past experiences are affecting your ability to reach your full potential? Do you need a safe space to process your thoughts and feelings and engage in self exploration? I am a licensed psychotherapist who believes the most important catalyst for change is the relationship between therapist and client. My goal is to partner with you to reach your desired goals in a therapeutic environment. We will take the necessary steps together to foster positive change while creating individual strategies for self-empowerment. I have been trained in EMDR therapy which is a theory based on the belief that our brains have a natural system for processing information and experiences so that we can keep what we need for wisdom, learning, and growth. Sometimes disturbing experiences overwhelm the processing system, or we don't have the information we need for our brains to make sense of what happened in a healthy way. EMDR uses eye movements and other right-left stimulation to activate your brain's processing system so you can successfully process the experience and let go of what's not useful to you. I believe our past effects our present and future- both in adaptative and maladaptive ways. I would be honored to be a part of your journey to inner peace, self-love, and fulfillment.

Narcissists weaponize by their reactivity. If you do something they don't like they make you feel guilty. Guilt is associated with having done something wrong and the guilt is the glue that holds these relationships together. I work with clients who suffer from narcissistic abuse, addiction, anxiety, depression, and trauma. Ive had the pleasure of helping my clients gain awareness and heal from trauma. In addition I also provide supervision for licensure.

I help people rise above the pain and find healing. I also offer faith-based counseling and I'm open to people from all walks of life. Are you feeling anxious about your relationships? I walk with you as you make the tough choices. You might be wondering if you feeling anxious due to narcissistic abuse or even perimenopause--I can help you find clarity and make a plan. (I do NOT accept insurance for couples therapy.) I am a mental health counselor who specializes in women, couples and teens. I use my Gottman Method training (an internally known, research-based therapy) to help couples restore their relationships. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and my background in secondary education to help my teens thrive in adolescence.
