Whether you’re facing career or relationship challenges, or seeking faith-based therapy, we’ll work together to create a personalized path forward. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), I specialize in helping clients heal from trauma and painful experiences that may be holding them back. I also integrate techniques like breathwork, mindfulness, and actionable steps to enhance healing. Taking the first step is courageous—let’s work together to achieve lasting change and well-being.

Are you feeling stuck in overthinking, emotional reactivity, or self-doubt—even when you know you’re capable of more? You may feel like your inner critic is running the show, leaving you exhausted or disconnected from yourself. I’m Marsha Hicks-Richards, LCSW, and I help clients move from survival mode into clarity, emotional balance, and self-trust. I believe therapy is an act of courage and self-care, and my role is to support you in reconnecting with your strengths while learning practical tools to navigate life more effectively.

For instance, I will utilize your strengths, resources and culture in order to explore problems from multiple vantage points. And, I will develop a treatment plan that incorporates co-existing issues. Whether you are experiencing family problems, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or another issue, I will facilitate conversations where solutions to the problem become more accessible and visible: I believe my clients have the capacity and agency to take actions that are right for them.

This can be that first step toward an experience where the destination will be determined by each of you. If this speaks to you, I invite you to contact me and schedule a consultation.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in the state of Florida, and I’ve had the privilege of working in a wide range of mental health settings—from substance abuse treatment facilities to crisis stabilization centers. These experiences have taught me that healing rarely follows a straight path, and that every individual carries a unique story, shaped by struggle, resilience, and hope.

Hello! I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and I hold a PhD in Human Services with a focus on supporting individuals and communities. It’s very common to feel emotionally exhausted when you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time. You may be struggling with anxiety that never fully shuts off, low mood that’s hard to explain, unresolved trauma, or difficulties with focus, motivation, or relationships. You deserve kindness and support as you take things one step at a time. My expertise includes working with children, adolescents, adults, and couples. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, relationship challenges, and stress-related concerns. I also have experience supporting individuals in high-stress roles, including first responders.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or weighed down by experiences that are difficult to make sense of - whether that’s anxiety, past or present trauma, relationship challenges, or simply the strain of getting through each day. I work with individuals navigating a wide range of challenges, whether finding it hard to cope, or functioning on the outside while struggling internally. Many of my clients have experienced difficult or painful life events and are seeking a space where they can feel understood, supported, and free from judgment. My approach is thoughtful, grounded, and tailored to each individual. I will meet you where you are, at a pace that feels manageable.

I bring both professional training and real-life perspective to my work, allowing me to connect with clients in a genuine and down-to-earth way. Therapy with me is not about quick fixes—it’s about meaningful, lasting change and having someone alongside you who understands how difficult things can feel. Reaching out for therapy is a big step, and I aim to make the process as supportive and straightforward as possible from the beginning. An initial conversation can help determine whether working together feels like the right fit, provide a sense of what the process might look like, and address any questions you may have. I would welcome the opportunity to connect.

Hello! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I am originally from Philadelphia , PA, so I have come to enjoy Florida’s climate. I came to Florida via the military. I am retired military and after serving for twenty-four years, I felt compelled to redirect my life toward caring for others in a more personal and meaningful way. I decided that clinical therapy would best tie into my natural and learned abilities as well as my desire to help people. I earned my Master of Social Work from the University Of Southern California with a primary focus in Children, Youth, and Families. I chose this focus because I believe every aspect of the family is important from the individual to the couple and family with children, and in many cases, the extended family. I am EMDR trained. I am also certified to work with all anxiety disorders. I have extensive experience working with neurotypical and neurodivergent clients living with substance abuse, anxiety, depression, and trauma.

"Support for the woman who constantly cares for others. If you feel overwhelmed and stretched thin, I’m here to help you regain your balance and well-being." My calling to this work comes from my own experience of holding everything in, carrying the weight of caring for others, and hiding my own exhaustion. For a long time, I understood what it meant to keep going even when I needed a break, to put others' needs before my own, and to believe I had to handle everything on my own. Through my own growth and continued practice, I have learned the importance of self-care, self-compassion, and giving myself permission to slow down. I've learned that asking for help is not a sign of weakness, and that taking a break does not mean I'm falling behind. These experiences have deepened my passion for helping other women who find themselves caught in the same cycle of giving, doing, and carrying-while quietly putting their own needs last. I believe you can care deeply for the people you love without losing yourself in the process. ​

Hi, I’m Jaki Neering, LCSW. I’m a trauma-informed therapist who’s passionate about creating safe, affirming spaces where you can feel seen and supported.

You deserve that space.

I’m a licensed mental health counselor with a background in healthcare, and I’m passionate about helping people feel stronger, more confident, and more at peace with themselves. I primarily work with individuals navigating depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and life transitions, especially women who are adjusting to new phases or challenges in life. Before becoming a therapist, I spent many years working in the healthcare field. This experience deepened my understanding of how physical and emotional well-being are connected and gave me a holistic view of the challenges my clients face. My goal is to help you move forward in a healthy, balanced, and fulfilling way so you can become the best version of yourself.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional with private practice and outpatient setting experience. I am also a certified Reiki Healer Levels I and II. I have spent several years supporting professionals in their career development and have a passion for professional coaching with the use of Motivational Interviewing techniques. My experience is in helping clients who lack purpose, experience stress and anxiety, relationship issues, low motivation, low self-esteem and challenges with confidence, as well as career difficulties. I am a professional woman of color and have navigated through the dynamics of the corporate world. In my own experience, I have learned to heavily lean on more holistic approaches that have resulted in long-term changes in my view of the world and in the way I approach life's challenges. One of the biggest takeaways from our work together will hopefully be the understanding and acceptance that life's journey comes with "peaks and valleys" and how we respond to these will greatly influence our perspective of the self and how we show up for others and to the world we live in. I believe that you are the expert on your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming your challenges. My goal is to ensure that we deeply explore your values and those strengths and help you recognize them to then identify your desires from counseling and work to that end. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process!

My name is Algelis Gonzalez, though I am commonly known as Al. My motivation to become a therapist stems from my personal journey. Growing up in a Latino culture, I developed a curiosity about people both within my community and beyond.

I am deeply committed to helping my clients embrace their true selves, regardless of their personality traits—whether they are humorous, quiet and shy, hesitant to trust, or feeling frustrated with the world.

Hey! I'm Shay and I am a licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York , Florida, Virginia, West Virginia and North Carolina and I specialize in anxiety, depression, and relationship issues. I was born and raised in NYC. I serve individuals and couples between the ages of 18-60 who struggle with communication skills, boundary settings, family and relationship challenges among other challenges who are ready and willing to begin their healing journey. I work with people who feel stuck in their own mind—overthinking, second-guessing, or constantly on edge. If you’re dealing with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or OCD patterns, you might already know how exhausting it can be to try to “logic” your way out of it and still feel out of control.

"Healing is possible, even when it feels far away." I'm Liz, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who specializes in working with adults navigating trauma and PTSD. Many of the people I work with are used to carrying a lot on their own. You may be the person others depend on—the one who keeps going, gets things done, and rarely lets anyone see how much you're struggling. On the outside, you may look like you're managing. On the inside, you may feel anxious, overwhelmed, exhausted, disconnected, or stuck in survival mode. You might find yourself overthinking, staying constantly busy, feeling on edge, struggling to slow down, or wondering why certain patterns keep showing up in your relationships and daily life. Often, these responses developed for a reason. They helped you cope with difficult experiences and get through what you had to get through. Trauma isn't just something that happened in the past. It can affect how safe you feel in the world, how you relate to others, and how you see yourself. It can leave you feeling disconnected from your emotions, your body, or the person you want to be. I provide a safe, supportive, and trauma-informed space where we can explore these experiences at a pace that feels manageable. My approach is relational and collaborative. Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we'll work together to understand the patterns that have been keeping you stuck, process past experiences, build coping tools that actually fit your life, and strengthen your connection to yourself. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, more connected, and more able to move through life with a greater sense of choice, confidence, and self-understanding. Healing looks different for everyone, and we'll work together to find what that looks like for you.

I believe meaningful change happens when you feel understood, supported, and empowered. In our work together, we’ll focus on building practical skills, strengthening insight, and reconnecting you with the strengths you already have. My goal is to help you feel more confident, balanced, and capable of moving forward in your life.

I offer compassionate, culturally responsive mental health services rooted in the belief that healing is possible—and you don’t have to carry it alone. I create a safe, affirming space where individuals can gently unpack trauma, depression, anxiety, and life’s emotional burdens while reconnecting with their true selves. What makes me unique is my focus on empowerment, meaning, and identity. Therapy here goes beyond symptom management—it’s about helping you heal at your own pace, reclaim your voice, strengthen emotional connection, and rediscover purpose.

Hello, I am Viktoria. Life doesn't always go as planned, and transitions, illness, and trauma are rarely anticipated. Are you struggling with self-defeating patterns that are causing depression, anxiety, and /or a feeling of being stuck? Do you want to make changes in your personal and professional life? Do you have challenges in your relationship? Individuals have unique and individual needs, which should be recognized. Most of the time, you will be able to handle the situation with the help of your friends and family or on your own. There are times when you might need professional guidance and support to learn specific techniques to help you manage your thoughts and feelings. An important aspect of therapy is the opportunity to explore feelings of loneliness, anxiety, depression, grief, and shame, and to begin the process of creating positive and lasting changes. This takes place in a non-judgmental, therapeutic relationship based on empathy, trust, safety, and compassion. My style is calm, warm, and relaxed, and I believe in creating a safe environment for you in which compassion, support, and humor can flourish. Together, we can gain insight and understanding of the relationships between emotions, core beliefs and behaviors in order to find solutions to the problems you are facing.

Hi, I'm Aaron. Are you someone who just feels like life is kicking you while you are down? Are you constantly looking in the mirror and disliking what you see? Do you find that no matter where you are and who you are with, you still feel alone? Let's see if we can change that. Let's aim to challenge our thoughts and be there for ourselves. Let's create a plan that will empower us to take back control over our life and love what we see when looking in the mirror. Let's work together to live a happy and more fulfilling life. I strive to help high-functioning individuals to rediscover their inner strength to overcome their trauma, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues. I work with clients to help them challenge the thoughts holding them back. I implement a variety of therapeutic techniques to fit the needs of the client. I also use music and guided meditations to facilitate self-understand, along with providing tools they can use at home to help deal with stress, anxiety and depression. My main focus is to empower clients to better enable them to understand what is in their control and how they can make positive changes in their life. Reaching out for help is always scary because you do not know where to start or what to expect. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the hangups and habits holding you back.
