Hello, my name is Johanna Torres, and I am a bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). I specialize in working with adult females experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, family conflicts, and past trauma. If you find yourself overwhelmed by anxiety, struggling with panic attacks, emotional dysregulation, or experiencing the brain fog that comes with dissociation, or if you are simply seeking a deeper understanding of yourself and are motivated to improve your life, I am here to help. Yes, together, we will explore these issues, develop strategies to achieve your goals and objectives, and start healing.
My name is Amanda Chilleme, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina, as well as a Master’s Certified Addiction Professional. For over 11 years, I have supported individuals in identifying what truly matters to them, navigating obstacles, and building a foundation for a more fulfilling future.
My primary specialty is working with men and women struggling with substance use disorders as well as process and behavioral addictions, helping them find a pathway to a life that feels less burdened and more aligned. I also have extensive experience treating anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorders, grief and bereavement, trauma, attachment concerns, and personality disorders.
As a clinician, I take a human-focused approach. I am not here to tell you what you need to work on—you already know the what. My role is to help you understand the why, and ultimately the how: how to shift it, heal it, overcome it, or, when appropriate, let it go altogether.
Your first session is best described as a two-way interview. As I listen to your story and your narrative begins to take shape, we collaboratively determine two things:
Whether I am the right therapist for you, and
Whether this therapeutic relationship is the right fit for both of us.
If we decide to move forward together, identifying your goals becomes your first assignment. This process allows me to better understand how you think, how you interpret challenges, and how barriers such as stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship dynamics show up for you. From there, we focus on one goal at a time.
I see myself as your coach, teammate, and cheerleader!
Whether you are just beginning therapy or have been on this journey for some time, I invite you to plant that seed—and see just how beautifully you grow.
Feeling constantly on edge, emotionally drained, or struggling to cope? Many clients I encounter feel stuck in survival mode-overwhelmed with anxiety, weighed down with depression, or impacted by trauma. Life stressors can feel all consuming and this can make everyday feel like an uphill battle.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing compassionate, trauma-informed therapy using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I also have a certification in CBT focused on Depression. Together, we focus on reducing anxiety, improving mood, and developing coping skills to help regain a sense of control and stability in your daily life.
Are you looking for a space to navigate current stressors—somewhere you can unwind and express thoughts or emotions that feel too heavy to carry alone? Do you want support in understanding mental health symptoms or building a personalized toolbox of coping skills?
Hi, I’m Maryam. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida, born and raised, and of Venezuelan descent. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish. I graduated from the University of South Florida with degrees in Psychology and Health Sciences and later earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Florida Gulf Coast University.
My clinical experience includes working in mobile crisis response, outpatient counseling, addiction treatment, and telehealth therapy. Across all settings, my priority is to create a non-judgmental, safe, and welcoming environment where you can work toward your goals at a pace that feels right for you.
I take a holistic approach and integrate a variety of therapeutic interventions, including art and music-inspired techniques, cognitive reframing to challenge negative self-talk, solution-focused strategies, and what I like to call “care-frontation.” I often offer optional tasks or reflections between sessions to help deepen your progress.
I’d be honored to support you as we begin this healing journey together.
Hi there! Many of us struggle in silence to overcome the challenges we face, but you no longer have to face that battle alone. From someone who has had their own personal struggles with mental health, I want you to know that you are not alone. I strive to create a space for you to feel seen, heard, and safe. As someone who has been to therapy, I understand how difficult it can be to take that next step. Finding the right therapist can be hard. Finding someone to support you, challenge you, and hold space for the things most people in our life have no idea we are facing. I would be honored to be that space for you. I hope we can work together to help you reach your goals. While the first step is acknowledging the change you need, it takes courage to recognize you need some guidance. It takes even more courage to initiate those first steps towards improving your life.

Therapy isn’t about changing who you are, it’s about finding possible alternatives to support change in the areas that may be causing problems in our life.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who has been practicing in the local community since 2011. I began my career working with a non-profit by helping children, teenagers, parents, and couples who struggled with various issues, ranging from learning to cope with day-to-day stressors to healing from major traumas.
In the years since then, I’ve helped young adults in college wrestling with academic pressure, newly blended families yearning for harmony, couples searching to renew faded intimacy, and individuals struggling to overcome addictive patterns. This broad range of therapeutic experience has helped me to become well-rounded as a mental health professional.
Hello! Sometimes making the decision to attend therapy is the most difficult decision. However, that doesn't mean that therapy will always be easy. When therapy is difficult, you often grow through those difficult experiences. Others would describe me as a "down to earth" type person and able to remain calm in stressful situations. I meet my clients where they are in life and help them stabilize their current situation before diving into other issues. No one is perfect, we all need help sometimes.
My name is Kristin but you can call me Nikki. I am a licensed therapist and have worked in a variety of settings with a large population of all demographics.

relationship issues, and LGBTQ+-related issues. I work with a variety of modalities and use a client-centered approach to help my clients overcome obstacles, process trauma, and reduce symptoms with healthy coping and management techniques.
Hello! My name is Dr. Charles Greene, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Georgia, an Approved Clinical Supervisor (ACS), and a Board Certified-Telehealth Provider (BC-TMH). I hold a Doctor of Behavioral Health degree and a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling.
*Please note that I am not a medical doctor or a psychologist, and my services focus on counseling and therapeutic techniques rather than medical diagnosis or treatment.
As a licensed professional counselor, I am here to provide a supportive and nurturing environment for individuals seeking understanding and growth. My goal is to help you navigate life's challenges, enhance sense-making of yourself and the world around you, and develop effective coping strategies. I draw upon a blend of evidence-based practices and compassionate support to tailor my approach to your unique needs. Together, we can work toward achieving your personal goals and fostering a deeper understanding of yourself.
Thank you for taking the first step toward a brighter future. I look forward to joining you on this journey.
I graduated Eastern Michigan University with a major in psychology and a minor in nutrition in 2007. I completed my PhD program at the University of Detroit Mercy in 2014. During that time period I worked with patients in outpatient and inpatient settings including the University psychology clinic, Wayne State Family Medicine Center, Providence Alaska Family Medicine Center, and Providence Alaska inpatient services.I’m a clinical psychologist (PhD) specializing in trauma, anxiety, depression, and the mind–body impact of stress. My approach is warm, relational, and psychodynamic — I help you understand not just what you’re feeling, but why it keeps happening.
Many of my clients come to me after trying short-term or skills-only therapy and not feeling truly understood. Together, we look at the deeper patterns shaped by past experiences, trauma, and relationships. This includes medical trauma, chronic illness, health anxiety, and eating issues rooted in shame or self-criticism.
I offer teletherapy to adults who want thoughtful, insight-oriented work that leads to lasting change.
Everyone needs help from time to time. I enjoy helping people to find their strengths; their gifts, talents and abilities that they were created with. Whether you’re experiencing feelings of anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or just feeling stuck, therapy can provide a safe place to work things out and find solutions that are right for you.
I find that many people are helped by connection with a therapist, someone who will listen, but also use their training and experience, bringing that into the relationship.
You’re a high-achieving woman who appears successful on the outside, yet internally feels overwhelmed, disconnected, or quietly unfulfilled. You know how to perform, push through, and hold it all together, but patterns like perfectionism, people-pleasing, procrastination, or chronic self-doubt continue to limit your sense of ease, confidence, and fulfillment.
You may have a strong career, financial stability, a home, and a life that looks “together” from the outside. Your responsibilities are handled. Your bills are paid. You show up for others. And yet, there’s a persistent sense that something is missing. No matter how much you accomplish, the relief is temporary and the internal pressure quickly returns. You tell yourself you should feel satisfied, but instead feel stuck in cycles you can’t seem to outthink or outwork.
My work is designed for women like you, those who are capable, self-aware, and ready for meaningful change. Together, we move beyond surface-level coping strategies and address the deeper roots of self-sabotage. Through a highly personalized, one-on-one approach, we uncover the unconscious patterns driving these behaviors, strengthen self-trust, and build the internal safety needed to create lasting change.
This is not about fixing what’s “wrong” with you. It’s about helping you feel grounded, confident, and fulfilled in a life you’ve already worked hard to build, without burning out or betraying yourself along the way.
Welcome—just as you are. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or weighed down by family expectations while trying to be everything for everyone, you’re not alone. I’m a bilingual (English/Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida, helping adults navigate anxiety, trauma, and challenges related to identity and life transitions. I offer a warm, affirming space where you don’t have to over-explain your story—your experiences are understood and respected. Using evidence-based approaches like CBT and EMDR, along with a trauma-informed lens, I help you process what you’ve been through, set boundaries without guilt, and reconnect with your sense of self. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone—I’m here to support you every step of the way.

Hi :) I'm Tiffany, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Florida. Many of the women I work with carry immense responsibilities within familial, relational, professional, and societal systems that often ask far more of them than they receive in return. My role is to be a dependable source of support- a space where women can have a protected hour each week to recover, recalibrate, and replenish their mental and emotional well-being.
As a Marriage and Family Therapist, I primarily help fathers build stronger relationships with their children by better understanding their children's emotional and developmental needs. I especially enjoy helping fathers and their teenage and young adult children repair strained relationships, navigate conflict, and develop healthier ways of communicating. I also help men strengthen communication and connection with their partners.
I hope to be a helpful resource to you!

Hi, I’m Desiree, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adults who appear capable on the outside but internally struggle with chronic self-doubt, overthinking, and people-pleasing. Many of my clients worry they are “too much” or not good enough, even while managing a lot in their lives.

Hi, I’m Haley and happy to see you here! A little about me - an avid reader with furry pets (two cats to be exact). I have a passion for working with those who want to understand themselves better. I specialize in trauma, attachment wounds, depression, anxiety, self-harm and suicidal ideation, and substance use. My approach is compassionate, trauma-informed, and rooted in EMDR, motivational interviewing, and attachment-focused therapy to support meaningful, lasting change.
Life can feel heavy and overwhelming, and we don’t have to carry everything alone. I’m here to help shoulder some of that weight and guide you toward the life you’re envisioning. I practice from a holistic perspective, considering all aspects of your life and how they influence one another. Even when we focus on a single concern, we’ll explore the broader patterns and connections that shape your wellbeing. Growth is rarely linear, and we’ll navigate that journey together with intention and compassion to help you get lasting change.
I thrive with clients who understand they need to work for change, want to gain insight and value personal evolution. Sessions often lead to new insights, “aha” moments, and sometimes even a laugh or two. Humor doesn’t replace healing, but it sure can soften the edges of difficult moments.
For my qualifications, I’m have a bachelor’s in Social Work and a master’s degree in counseling earned back in 2013. My background spans substance abuse treatment, grief and trauma work, suicide prevention, attention concerns, and mood and anxiety disorders — I’ve walked alongside people through some of life’s toughest chapters.

Hello, I’m Stacey Anne Charles-Polycarpe, a bilingual (English/Creole) Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida and Texas. For over 9 years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting adults, adolescents, and families as they navigate life’s challenges. I specialize in working with concerns such as depression, anxiety, self-esteem, codependency, parenting, relationships, and trauma—and my goal is always to provide a safe, compassionate space where healing and growth can begin.
My clients are people who want to move from feeling "stuck" to having a greater sense of purpose, empowerment and clarity. My approach to counseling uses a relational model that creates a safe environment where I encourage my clients to develop resiliency and self-empowerment. Life is very hard. My goal is to have each person leave a session feeling more capable to handle whatever life throws at them.
I am a licensed mental health counselor providing therapy to adolescents, adults, and families in a supportive and collaborative environment. My practice is grounded in a person-centered approach, emphasizing empathy, unconditional positive regard, and a strong therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard, respected, and accepted without judgment. I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns, build on their strengths, and develop practical strategies for change.
I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. In sessions, I support clients in exploring their thoughts and emotions, gaining insight into patterns that may be contributing to distress, and identifying realistic and meaningful goals. Using CBT, we focus on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, while also practicing coping skills, cognitive reframing, and emotional regulation strategies.
Through a Solution-Focused lens, I help clients recognize their existing strengths, resilience, and past successes to guide goal setting and create forward movement. This approach encourages clients to envision their preferred future and take small, achievable steps toward positive change. By combining these approaches, I tailor treatment to meet each client’s unique needs and experiences.
My goal is to empower clients to increase self-awareness, improve emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and build confidence in managing life’s challenges. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where clients are active participants in their growth. I strive to provide a safe and supportive space where individuals can develop insight, build effective coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.
Hello! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor from Puerto Rico based in Orlando, Florida, who blends warmth with structure to help you make real, measurable progress.

I bring a longstanding passion for psychology and a strong sense of fairness; that shows up as advocacy for your needs, thoughtful attention to context and culture, and a steady focus on rebuilding self-trust. I especially enjoy working with women, helping professionals, and busy parents who want both a safe space and a clear plan. When you’re ready, you can book a session directly from this profile.
I compassionately work with women experiencing a variety of life struggles including anxiety, PTSD, grief, relationship issues, self-esteem and boundary challenges.

I incorporate faith-based counseling for those who desire this approach.
Hello, I'm Rose-Marie, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. Life can be stressful at times and it can be hard to cope with the everyday changes and curve balls thrown at you. Sometimes we don't think about the importance of our mental health. We struggle with adjusting to the changes life sends our way and may end up becoming anxious or depressed. In today's busy world we find ourselves playing multiple roles that require a lot of our time. We may even find it hard to communicate our feelings, emotions, wants and needs in our various relationships. As a result we may neglect to take care of ourselves or may focus more on one of our roles while neglecting the others. As a working mother of two, I totally get this and I am passionate about helping other parents navigate these demands. I can help you explore and find ways to cope. I use cognitive behavioral therapy to help address the thoughts that led to depression and increased persistent anxiety. I also use Solution Focused Therapy to look at what worked and how to do more of it.
The great thing is that you took the first step by seeking a therapist. This can be scary, but I believe in creating an open and safe environment for you to share issues and feelings without feeling judged. I work with you at a pace you feel comfortable with while building the therapeutic relationship.
My mission is to inspire others to live their purpose. For over 30 years, I have counseled individuals, couples and families with their relationships. The #1 relationship problem goes beyond communication. It is learning to resolve conflict and becoming stronger through it. It is about accepting differences as different and not wrong. Whether you just want a stronger relationship or you are in a crisis and do not know which way to turn, the only thing holding you back holding right now is probably fear. Ask yourself: What would love do?
It is important for us to have conscious relationships so that our children will have a better chance of being successful in their own relationships. Otherwise we will watch them repeat our mistakes.
Do it for you; do it for them.
My education is in psychology, counseling psychology, spirituality and hundreds if not thousands of hours in continuing education on multiple additional topics.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and clients often describe me as thoughtful, relatable, humorous, open-minded, a good listener, and a creative problem solver. I believe therapy should feel both supportive and practical, giving you space to be heard while also helping you move toward real change. Before becoming a therapist, I served in the United States Air Force for four years. When I transitioned out of the military, I felt drawn to a helping profession, and social work quickly became the perfect fit. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of working with people of all ages and backgrounds, as well as their families.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I specialize in treating Relationship and Family Strain, Self-Esteem, Anxiety, Depression, Addiction and Recovery, Dual Diagnosis, and Religious Trauma. I am highly skilled at building rapport in an authentic and supportive fashion, which allows us to explore the cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and relational patterns influencing one's past, present and future. I have nearly a decade of experience treating individuals, families, and groups. I love what I do, and so do my clients!
Are you seeking a compassionate and supportive space for your mental health journey? Look no further. Whether you're a child, teen, or adult, we're here to support you every step of the way. From anxiety and depression to trauma, mood swings, relationship struggles, low self-esteem, or stress, we help you navigate life's challenges and step into your best self. Empowerment starts here.
With over three decades of experience in the social services field, I bring a deep commitment to supporting individuals through complex challenges. In 2015, I returned to academia and earned a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Walden University in 2022, with a specialization in Trauma and Crisis.
My clinical journey began as a therapist at a 16-bed forensic residential facility, where I worked with individuals facing serious mental illnesses and co-occurring disorders. I currently serve on the adolescent unit of a crisis stabilization hospital, providing care in high-acuity environments.
Hello, I'm Jess
For more than 14 years, I have helped people learn to manage the worlds they live in. As all of us, I have many roles and identities as well. I am not just a therapist, I am also a wife, mother, former military spouse, sister, Disney adult, and so much more. I love to work with others by getting to know them as a whole person, understanding the systems they live in, and how they interact with the world. Together, we can discover and explore the challenges you are experiencing and work to get you back on track. I will work with you to understand your areas of need and help identify your strengths and how to best use them in your life.
I am a clinical social worker, therapist & life coach. I collaborate with clients in facilitating their ability to navigate their journey through change. I provide clients the opportunity to learn, change and grow, and I provide guidance for them to learn healthy adaptive ways to improve their response to encounters with life stressors and challenging life situations. Clients are engaged in various evidence based therapeutic interventions and the exploration and discovery of their untapped potential, so they can harness the necessary skills and strategies to facilitate behavioral change.
In the scope of my practice I aim to empower clients through sessions that are based on a holistic, client driven approach. I view clients through the lens of their personal environment, as their well-being is significantly shaped by their life experiences. In addressing clients presenting issues, I take into consideration the correlation between their presenting issues and their environment; i.e., social, cultural and physical, that contribute to current challenging life circumstances. Focus is given to past experiences and current situations to help them navigate their therapy encounter and future successfully.
“Let’s walk together on your journey toward healing—one piece at a time.” I work with children, adults, and families navigating life stressors and the impact of trauma. Using a trauma-informed care and compassionate approach, I focus on advocacy, strengthening relationships, and fostering meaningful change. Together, we’ll use individualized, evidence-based strategies to support your growth and healing every step forward.

Greetings,
I am a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I have a plethora of experience working with various populations, dealing with issues such as Substance use, Anxiety, Depression, Relationship issues, LGBTQ, Ethical Non-Monogamy/lifestyle concerns, Homelessness, Bipolar disorder, Personality disorders, and Trauma including sexual, emotional and physical abuse.
My Counseling style is client-centered with the utilization of CBT, DBT, Psycho-educational, and Psychodynamic therapy.
I believe we are all unique individuals living through different experiences. My goal is to help you navigate through the darkness so you can live the life you want, acquiring the coping skills and tools needed along the way.
You are more than your trauma, Inner childhood wounds, and the labels placed on you.
Let's work together!
I'm looking forward to meeting you!
Trained as a psychologist (Ph.D. from Cornell University). Some 20 years later I earned a second graduate degree in Marriage & Family Therapy. I am a fully licensed therapist in the State of Florida.
I have taught psychology at Princeton, Tulane, Cornell, and Harvard Medical School.
We will spend most of our time creating solutions, instead of analyzing problems. So often, therapy gets bogged down in the endless exploration of problems. Problems are the results of behaviors that didn't work for you in the past. Solutions flow from changes that will work for you starting right now. Solutions make your life better. They bring joy and peace to your life.
I was inspired to become a therapist because I wanted to be the kind of safe, supportive presence for others that I needed during my own childhood. What I love most about this work is seeing the growth my clients make, but also being there through the tough times when they stumble and watching them find the strength to get back up. I have a deep commitment to building trust, honoring each person’s unique journey, and empowering them to create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Are you struggling with challenges that affect your emotional health and wellbeing? Do past experiences feel like they're limiting your potential? Are you looking for a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings?
I'm a licensed psychotherapist who believes the therapeutic relationship is the most powerful catalyst for change. My goal is to partner with you toward your desired goals in a supportive, collaborative environment — working together to foster positive change and build strategies for self-empowerment.
I'm trained in EMDR therapy, based on the idea that our brains have a natural system for processing experiences so we can retain what serves our growth. When disturbing experiences overwhelm that system — or we lack the context to make sense of what happened — the effects can linger. EMDR uses bilateral (left-right) stimulation to activate the brain's natural processing system, helping you work through difficult experiences and release what no longer serves you.
I believe our past shapes our present and future, in both adaptive and maladaptive ways. I'd be honored to help you on your journey toward inner peace, self-love, and fulfillment.
