I am a Licensed Professional Counselor based in Texas and also licensed in Colorado, Florida, Idaho, South Carolina, Utah, and Vermont. With more than 34 years of private practice experience, I help adults identify and overcome obstacles that interfere with daily functioning, relationships, personal growth, and achieving meaningful goals. My approach is practical, structured, and collaborative. I believe trust is the foundation of effective therapy, creating an environment where clients feel comfortable being open, honest, and willing to make lasting change. I also believe that appropriate humor, when used at the right time, can help build connection, reduce anxiety, and provide perspective during life's challenges. Throughout my career, I have continued to expand my knowledge through professional education, research, and the life experiences that come from working with a diverse range of clients over three decades. I am a lifelong Texan who has traveled extensively and gained an appreciation for different cultures, backgrounds, and life experiences. While I have not lived every situation my clients face, I have experienced many of life's challenges myself, allowing me to offer both professional guidance and genuine understanding. Even when life does not unfold as planned, there is no reason to face those struggles alone. To ensure clients receive the most appropriate care, my practice is generally not the best fit for individuals whose primary concerns involve major depressive disorders, Borderline Personality Disorder, or other conditions requiring more specialized or intensive treatment. In those situations, I encourage clients to work with clinicians whose practices are specifically focused on those needs.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida. I was inspired to become a therapist after growing up in a family that experienced mental illness and trauma. I would like to help those in need thrive and become the best versions of themselves. I have been practicing therapy for over 3 years with a those with a variety of needs.

Hi, I’m Erica, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida, and I’ve always felt deeply connected to understanding people and the stories that shape them. My passion is creating a space where you feel seen, supported, and understood as you work through life’s challenges. I believe therapy is a place to make sense of your experiences, reconnect with your strengths, and build confidence in your ability to grow and heal. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in empathy. I focus on helping you explore your life at your own pace, while also supporting you in finding meaning and building resilience. Being a therapist, to me, means walking beside you—not leading, not pushing—just offering steady support as you move toward the life you want.

My name is Michael Starr, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I believe therapy is more than just problem-solving, it’s a place to rediscover who you are, heal what’s been hidden, and move forward with clarity and strength. I work with individuals, couples, and families facing anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, identity questions, and emotional overwhelm. My style is honest, grounded, and deeply respectful of the human experience. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Trauma-Focused CBT, but I also hold space for what cannot always be explained, your story, your meaning, your growth. Clients often come to me feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure of how to move forward. Together, we uncover the patterns keeping you there and build the insight, skills, and resilience to move through them. You won’t be rushed or judged. You’ll be heard, supported, and challenged when needed. You don’t have to have all the answers. You just have to be willing to start. Healing begins with one honest conversation, and I’m here to take that step with you.

I am a caring and compassionate therapist with over ten years of experience in mental health counseling. As a Navy veteran, I bring a strong sense of discipline, resilience, and empathy to my practice. I am also a life-long learner committed to staying informed on the most effective therapeutic approaches. My work is rooted in cultural competence, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space for clients of all backgrounds. I’m here to help you navigate life’s challenges, build emotional resilience, and move toward your personal goals with clarity and confidence.

I am a dedicated social worker who has served individuals and families since 2004.

I’ve also supported families navigating court involvement, custody disputes, parental conflict, and adolescent drug-prevention programs. I work with a steady, compassionate, and practical approach—drawing on CBT, Christian counseling when desired, and years of multidisciplinary experience to help clients create meaningful and lasting change.

Hi, I’m a therapist who believes therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or clinical to be effective. I help people sort through stress, self-doubt, relationship tension, and life transitions—with clarity, compassion, and a healthy dose of humor. My clients often tell me they chose me because I feel relatable and real, and because I’m not afraid to laugh with them even when things are tough. I’m straightforward and down-to-earth. I’ll meet you where you are without judgment, help you challenge what’s keeping you stuck, and walk alongside you as you make sense of what’s working—and what isn’t. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all therapy. I believe in real conversations, real growth, and helping you feel like yourself again (or maybe for the first time). Whether you’re navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship struggles, or just trying to feel more grounded in your life, I’m here to help you reconnect with your strength, your clarity, and your sense of possibility. You don’t have to be perfect or polished. Just bring yourself—we’ll take it from there.

Are you feeling anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, not good enough or feel like you have your back against the wall? Or maybe you are feeling as though your past won’t let you break free so you can start to feel alive again. You want relief, and to silence the noise around you for good! You are not alone and I am here to help! I help individuals struggling with anxiety, depression and trauma break free from their past so that they can go from surviving to thriving. My goal for my clients is to inspire them to overcome challenges, develop resilience and reclaim peace and purpose for their life.

Welcome — I know reaching out for therapy can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve spent a long time feeling misunderstood, emotionally exhausted, stuck in unhealthy patterns, or unsure how to move forward. Many of my clients come to therapy struggling with anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship stress, self-worth issues, attachment wounds, or feeling disconnected from themselves and the people around them. Some are navigating conflict, betrayal, burnout, identity concerns, or simply feeling “stuck” despite trying hard to hold everything together. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, supported, understood, and challenged in a healthy way. I take a compassionate but active approach to therapy — helping clients not only process emotions, but also understand their patterns, regulate their nervous system, and build practical tools for lasting change. You do not have to figure everything out alone.

I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University and have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) since 2014. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting adults through a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, grief, and major life transitions. After years of providing in-person therapy, I transitioned to fully virtual care in 2020. This shift allowed me to offer more accessible, flexible, and private telehealth services to adults across Florida and Vermont, meeting clients where they are—literally and emotionally. My clinical work is deeply informed by both training and lived experience. In my own life, I’ve navigated grief, significant life transitions, and having had cancer twice. While these experiences are not the focus of my work, they have shaped the way I show up as a therapist: grounded, present, and deeply respectful of the complexity of what people carry. I understand that healing is not linear, and that strength often looks like simply getting through the day. I work with adults who are experiencing emotional overwhelm, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, trauma responses, and health-related challenges. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally feeling stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. My approach is collaborative, practical, and paced to your readiness. I draw from evidence-based modalities including CBT, mindfulness-based strategies, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy. Together, we focus on building insight while also developing real-world coping tools that support meaningful change. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or push through alone. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or sensing that something needs to shift, this can be a steady place to begin rebuilding clarity, resilience, and emotional balance.

As a Therapist, I’m passionate about helping clients evolve into the best version of themselves.

At EJM Therapy, you’ll find a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can show up fully without shame or stigma. For many clients such as yourself, finding a place to share openly without fear of judgment can feel impossible. Somewhere you can laugh, cry, scream, or all three. Here, you are heard, seen, and supported. Therapy can be the recipe for unstoppable healing and unshakable peace. If you’re ready to move forward, I’d love to walk alongside you. Let’s talk.

The journey of healing at times requires support, sacred listening, and gentle guidance. I am here to assist you.

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.

Life can be happy, joyous, and fulfilling. However, life can also be challenging at times. Challenges may involve external situations which we're currently facing, they may be internal struggles involving our feelings and thoughts, or both.

Our life path is full of ups and downs with unexpected twists and turns. We learn to develop a way of coping whether it is a positive or negative method to help deal with stressors or adapt to change. However, the majority of the time, we fall back on what we are accustomed to when dealing with a stressful situation or unexpected change; such as becoming confused, frustrated, emotional, withdrawing, angry, combative, or ignoring the situation and hoping the situation will just magically disappear or be resolved.

I believe meaningful change comes from understanding not only what we do, but why we do it. My practice is grounded primarily in psychodynamic psychotherapy, which focuses on identifying the deeper emotional, relational, and unconscious patterns that shape how we experience ourselves, others, and the world. Many of the struggles people face today, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, addiction, and recurring life patterns, often have roots in earlier experiences that continue to influence present-day thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we work to understand these patterns so they no longer have to dictate your life. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I aim to help clients develop greater emotional insight, strengthen their capacity to regulate difficult emotions, improve relationships, and build a more cohesive and authentic sense of self. I believe lasting psychological change occurs when we understand the underlying dynamics that drive our reactions instead of simply learning to manage them. While psychodynamic therapy serves as the foundation of my work, I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) when it is clinically appropriate. CBT can provide practical strategies for challenging unhelpful thinking patterns, reducing symptoms, and building healthier behavioral habits while complementing the deeper exploratory work of psychodynamic therapy. I strive to create a therapeutic relationship that is thoughtful, collaborative, and emotionally attuned. Whether you are navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, personality difficulties, relationship concerns, or simply feel stuck in repeating the same patterns, therapy provides an opportunity to better understand yourself, develop greater resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I am experienced working with all ages, genders, and the LGBTQ community. In addition, I have experience working on a college campus with college age persons. In my free time you will find me spending time with my cats, and dogs, riding my horses, riding my bike or working out at the gym.

I am a License Mental Health Counselor in New York and Florida that works with marital counseling clients and those experiencing relationship issues and who are struggling with their sense of self confidence. My ideal client is someone who is committed to the process of self-introspection and wants to be held accountable to reach their goals. I specialize in counseling women and men on self-esteem, worth & actualization. I also support clients affected by bullying, narcissistic abuse as well as those dealing with complicated grief. As your therapist, I will assist you in discovering or uncovering yourself. This might mean realizing some difficult truths about your personality and behavior patterns, tapping into your strengths, and identifying what coping skills work for you. Or, it might mean working through emotional pain, trauma, or barriers that prevent you from being your best self. In my years of experience, I have found that once a person’s authentic identity has been discovered through therapy, clients can accept who they are, confidently speak up for themselves and understand themselves with greater perspective. Usually this leads to healthier relationship choices and dynamics. I will help you to learn more about yourself and make realistic changes.

As your therapist, I’ll support you in navigating anxiety, depression, and trauma with compassion and real-world tools. Together, we’ll uncover what helps you feel grounded, empowered, and whole. My approach is individualized and authentic; blending warmth, honesty, and care to help you strengthen your overall well-being while staying true to who you are. You deserve to feel like your best self-- not someday, but starting now. Therapy is a brave step, and I’d be honored to walk that journey with you.
