Therapists in Florida

At The Listening Room, we provide structured, goal-oriented therapy for individuals, families, and court-ordered referrals. Our approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), family-based interventions, and individual counseling to address a range of concerns—including anxiety, stress, relational issues, and behavioral challenges. Sessions are focused and collaborative, with most clients beginning to report noticeable progress within 6–7 sessions. Whether you’re navigating personal challenges, family conflict, or mandated treatment, we offer a professional, supportive space where growth and healing can take place. For those interested in in-person sessions, these are available by appointment only. Before meeting in person, we first conduct three initial assessments to understand your needs and develop a tailored treatment plan—ensuring your time with us is purposeful and productive. To make therapy more accessible, we’ve partnered with Grow Therapy, a trusted platform that manages insurance billing and referrals. While The Listening Room LLC is independently owned and operated, Grow Therapy helps streamline access to care by handling the administrative side—so we can focus on delivering quality mental health services and truly listening to you.

Hi. I'm Nichole. I am a licensed counselor in the state of Florida. I specialize in stress management, ADHD, women's issues, domestic violence, and relationship issues (for the individual). I do not work with couples at this time. I like to take an individualized, eclectic approach and tailor our sessions to the best approach for you. My background includes work in hospital settings, community mental health, substance use, case management, health care workers and CPI. I enjoy exploring underlying issues and finding ways to increase overall joy and peace in your life. I will meet you where you're at and assist you in identifying strengths and ways to apply them to reaching your goals.

My name is Circe Dunwoody. I am a license psychotherapist. In my psychotherapy practice I help couples and individuals to overcome life difficulties by using cognitive behavior therapy. Many couples and individuals feel overwhelmed by the desire to balance the high demands from work and family life. They report feelings of emptiness and loss of drive. Some report feeling of depression, anxiety and low self-esteem. Others contemplate divorce as a solution to decrease the pressure they are internalizing. You can contact me for help if you are experiencing some of the feelings I have mentioned above, and you are ready to make changes in your life. l work with couples and individuals in a safe and confidential platform environment. In life we all need support and understanding from others. Sometimes the best solution is to seek professional help. Having emotional support is extremely helpful. Relying on friends or family members is also helpful. However, you may not want to overwhelm them with problems. The most intelligent solution is seeking professional help.

If you’ve carried the weight of family abuse — if you grew up in chaos that made you question your worth, endured the confusion of narcissistic control, or were silenced by sibling violence or sexual abuse — I want you to know: I see you. So much of what feels wrong with you is actually what went right — the brilliant, instinctive ways your body and mind protected you when you had no other choice. Those survival strategies weren’t flaws; they were evidence of your strength. In our work together, there’s no rushing your story or asking you to relive the pain. Instead, we listen — to the language of your nervous system, to the parts of you that have waited years to be understood. Using Brainspotting and trauma-informed care, I help you process the experiences that still live in your body — not by forcing them out, but by creating enough safety for your system to release what it’s been holding. Many of my clients are survivors of childhood emotional and physical abuse, sexual trauma, and narcissistic family systems. They often come to me feeling disconnected from joy, trapped in self-blame, or exhausted by relationships that repeat old patterns of harm. Together, we slow down, find words for what was once unspeakable, and begin to rebuild a sense of safety — inside your body, your boundaries, and your life. Healing isn’t about erasing the past or pretending it never happened. It’s about remembering who you were before the world taught you to doubt yourself, and reclaiming that self with compassion and strength. You don’t have to walk this path alone. Together, we’ll help you create a life that feels safe, whole, and truly your own.
