I’m an EMDR and trauma specialist helping adults with anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and emotional overwhelm feel more grounded, regulated, and in control. Maybe it’s anxiety that won’t ease up, trauma that keeps resurfacing in subtle ways, ADHD that makes life feel harder than it should, or burnout that leaves your nervous system constantly on alert. You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside—while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, irritable, or exhausted on the inside. I help adults who feel overactivated, stressed, or emotionally overloaded finally get relief. I work with clients navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, chronic stress, and ADHD—the issues that keep your nervous system stuck in high-alert mode. Many of my clients are professionals, parents, athletes, or high achievers who’ve already tried talking through the problem but still feel reactive, drained, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to shift. If you’re tired of carrying everything alone, therapy can help you feel grounded, connected, and clear again. Flexible scheduling available—morning, midday, evening, and new Friday openings (11am–3pm) for clients using insurance. I frequently work with clients using Aetna, BCBS, and United and offer consistent availability for those seeking EMDR, trauma therapy, or anxiety treatment through their commercial benefits. As an EMDR-trained trauma therapist, I combine EMDR with CBT, ACT, and Transformational EMDR to help your brain and body process trauma, reduce anxiety, and release stuck emotional patterns. This work goes beyond symptom management—we address what’s underneath so you can feel more regulated, confident, and in control. Common issues I help with include anxiety, panic, overwhelm, ADHD, burnout, perfectionism, medical trauma, ACEs, chronic stress, performance anxiety, irritability, and shutdown patterns. Therapy with me is structured, supportive, and results-focused—built to create real, noticeable change.

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. This curiosity has driven me to understand the reasons behind our behaviors, both positive and negative. Throughout my career as a therapist, I continue to learn and grow, drawing from the vast knowledge available in the field. 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. I believe that everyone is welcome in my practice. Recognizing that none of us are perfect and that we are all striving to make sense of life’s complexities, I focus on exploring my clients’ experiences with respect and understanding. My goal is to facilitate their growth in ways they may not have previously thought possible.

I believe therapy is most effective when it feels both supportive and collaborative. My goal is to provide a safe space where clients can process trauma, explore challenges, and build the skills they need to live more fully. I offer psychotherapy, therapeutic assessments, and specialized interventions designed to meet each client’s unique needs. Whether you are navigating life transitions, managing mental health concerns, or seeking greater clarity in your relationships, I aim to help you feel understood and empowered. As I often remind clients, our connection to the world is shaped by the people we engage with. Together, we can build on your existing strengths and experiences to create meaningful change and improve your quality of life. As an athlete, a family man, and a man of faith, I understand the challenges with adjusting to change associated with leaving a sport or career, you love, before you believe your time is up. I understand what it feels like to develop a bond and the challenges with sustaining such bonds. I also understand seeking growth spiritually when there’s so much temptation and triggers that seem to pull me away for my goals. With that, these experiences are what hopefully keep me humble, motivated, and grateful.

I was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico, and moved to the United States in my mid-teens, carrying with me resilience, cultural richness, and a deep passion for helping others. My greatest inspiration has always been my mother—a strong, independent woman who taught me compassion, courage, and the power of emotional support. Those values led me to become a therapist dedicated to guiding others through life’s most difficult moments. Today, I specialize in supporting adults who are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship stress, and significant life transitions. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that every person is capable of healing. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, process their past, and build the confidence and stability they deserve. Outside of my work, you’ll often find me spending time with my family, enjoying new recipes, walking in my neighborhood, or watching the sunrise—my favorite way to recharge and reset.

My goal is to help you live more authentically, compassionately, and in better company with yourself, one step at a time. My approach is rooted in empathy, curiosity, and collaboration. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, and existential therapy to meet you where you are. I’m a trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, client-centered therapist who takes a holistic view of healing. I graduated with a Master's degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University in 2021, I obtained my post-graduate license to practice social work in 2024. I have experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and personality disorders. Together, we’ll build a strong therapeutic alliance, identify unhelpful thought patterns and core beliefs, and work toward sustainable, meaningful change. I believe healing is deeply personal, and no two journeys look the same. As Carl Sagan once said: "I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way."

Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. I specialize in integrative individual and couples therapy for the mind and body. My perspective on therapy starts with the central belief that if you listen to your clients, they will always tell you what's going on. While that may seem very basic, unfortunately, there is very little listening going on these days. When we are listened to and are unconditionally respected and accepted, we instinctively have the right stuff inside of us to figure out our issues. That's how we become empowered . That's how we grow. Whether you're dealing with overwhelming anxiety, relationship issues or depression. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion, understanding and respect. And I will use the latest evidence-based techniques to support you in your journey Helping you find that inner strength and resolve is what makes me uniquely qualified to help.

Hello, I’m Brian Smerdon, a licensed therapist and founder of Mindensity Mental Health. My passion is helping older adults and their families feel seen, supported, and empowered as they navigate life’s challenges. With a Master’s in Mental Health Counseling and ongoing doctoral work, I blend evidence-based care with a compassionate, culturally attuned approach. I believe therapy should feel safe, dignified, and accessible—never clinical or intimidating. Beyond the therapy room, I specialize in creative outreach: designing senior-friendly resources, animated videos, and community education that make mental health approachable. Whether you’re seeking support for anxiety, depression, grief, or simply want to strengthen resilience, I meet you where you are with empathy and clarity. My goal is simple: to normalize mental health care for seniors and their families, and to create spaces where healing feels both personal and empowering.

Hi, I’m Carolyn, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about helping people navigate life’s changes and challenges. I see therapy as a space for real connection where you can feel safe, understood, and supported. My goal is to meet you where you are and help you make meaningful progress at your own pace. I believe that everyone’s experience with mental health is unique, and I want you to understand your diagnosis and your growth in a way that makes sense for you. I’ve worked with clients across the lifespan—from adolescents to adults and older adults—and bring years of experience providing therapy in both group and individual settings. My approach draws from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. I’m deeply committed to creating an authentic and down-to-earth space where healing feels possible.

Welcome! I'm LaVon You've taken the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to trauma, anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients improve on living in the present rather than the past. I will help ou deveop boundaries those around you and help improve your quality of life.
