I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker passionate about walking alongside individuals who want to heal, grow, and build healthier ways of navigating life’s challenges. Over the years, I have worked with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and difficulties in relationships, and I have seen firsthand how meaningful therapy can be when it feels both safe and effective. I believe that therapy should be a space where you feel understood and supported while also learning concrete tools to create change in your everyday life. My role is to listen as well as help you gain insight, shift unhelpful patterns, and strengthen your confidence in managing stressors. I bring warmth, compassion, and evidence-based strategies to my work so that clients leave sessions feeling both validated and equipped to move forward.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. I received my Masters from the Lynn University and have been practicing for 10 years. I help adults 35 and over struggling with life stress and family dysfunction. I believe these underlying issues compose our personalities and affect how we interact with others and cause an impact on present relationships, jobs and self-esteem. The symptoms of these historical issues are anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and an ability to feel good about oneself.

With five years of experience as a therapist, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside individuals through meaningful and often life-changing parts of their journey. My work is rooted in compassion, authenticity, and deep respect for each person’s unique story. I enjoy working with clients who are navigating life transitions, experiencing emotional overwhelm, struggling with challenges, or seeking a deeper connection to themselves, others, or their purpose. Whether you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or simply ready for change, I offer a supportive space where you can slow down, reflect, and reconnect with your inner strengths. I specialize in a person-centered approach, and integrate evidence-based practices like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support real, sustainable growth. I believe therapy is not about “fixing” you, but about helping you understand yourself more fully, align with your values, and make choices that feel authentic and empowering. The impact I aim to leave is more than symptom relief; it’s about helping you build resilience, clarity, and confidence that lasts beyond our sessions. I hope that you leave each conversation feeling more grounded, more seen, and more capable of creating the life you want.

Do you often feel overwhelmed by your surroundings or uncertain about where you truly belong? Do crowded places leave you overstimulated and drained? Perhaps you avoid social situations, struggle to focus, or experience constant mental fog. You might be questioning if you have ADHD or autism, or you might already know and you are seeking someone who understands your experiences. Anxiety might increase with routine changes, leaving you feeling stuck and unable to complete tasks despite your efforts. You may catch yourself wishing to escape or needing someone to truly listen. If you relate to any of this, remember you’re not alone, and you don’t have to face it by yourself.

I approach therapy with the belief that healing and growth are always possible. Change is a natural part of life, and I view counseling as a supportive space where individuals and couples can explore challenges, strengthen resilience, and move toward greater well-being. My work is grounded in compassion, empathy, and respect, creating a safe environment where clients feel seen, heard, and understood. I was born in Cuba and moved to the United States with my family at a young age. Growing up in Central Florida, I became deeply curious about people, relationships, and the ways we navigate life’s struggles. That early curiosity developed into a calling to support others through their own journeys of healing and growth. Today, I work with both individuals and couples, helping them process trauma, improve communication, manage anxiety, and cultivate stronger, healthier connections. Fluent in English, Spanish, (and Spanglish), I enjoy providing therapy in whichever language feels most comfortable for my clients. My cultural background and bilingual skills allow me to offer a more inclusive and culturally sensitive counseling experience, something I believe is essential in building trust and fostering healing. In my practice, I integrate evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and the Gottman Method, tailoring treatment to meet each client’s unique needs. I also bring a person-centered philosophy, emphasizing empathy, authenticity, and collaboration as core elements of the therapeutic process. Outside of my professional life, I value balance and joy. I enjoy barbell strength training, which reminds me of the importance of persistence and self-care. I also love singing with my husband and spending meaningful time with family and friends. These personal joys keep me grounded and inspire the work I do with clients every day.

Hi, I'm Sharon, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I received my Bachelor's degree from Tulane University, a Master's degree in Social Work from Barry University, and have been practicing in a variety of settings for over 30 years. Our journey in this world can sometimes present us with confusion and challenges. Making the choice to engage in therapy is most definitely a life-changing decision.

I am someone who believes all people have the capacity to heal, grow, and live fully when given the right support. I recognize that life has many challenges and sometimes we just need help in facing the obstacles in our way. I became interested in psychology and understanding people after my brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia and I saw a drastic change in who he was as a person. This journey of trying to understand people, started in middle school, continued through college where I fell in love with Psychology, and into my masters program where I got a degree in Social Work. I started a career as a mental health therapist in 2019, and I continue my journey of learning and growing to better serve the needs of my clients now and in the future.

There are many ways stress can show up in our lives—sometimes as anxiety, low mood, or feeling stuck. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over a decade of experience, I’m here to help you navigate those challenges. I work with adults and couples to identify what’s holding them back and guide them toward a more fulfilling and balanced life. Together, we’ll explore how your thoughts and emotions influence your behavior and discover practical tools that fit your unique needs. My goal is to help you shift your inner narrative, overcome obstacles, and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.

Are holidays stressing you out? I get it! Let's work together to prepare for all the family drama and expectations, extra work, added expenses, traveling, or whatever else may be coming up for you as we prepare for the hectic months ahead. I’m Jeannine Haney, a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor based in Brevard County, Florida, with a focus on helping clients grow. I work with adults and teens experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, difficulty concentrating, irritability, and social withdrawal—symptoms that often stem from unresolved trauma, loss, or disrupted attachment. Throughout my career, I have worked with a diverse clientele, including children and adults, couples, and families, suffering from a wide range of issues such as anxiety, depression, grief and loss, relationship conflicts, and trauma. I integrate cognitive-behavior therapy, with solution-focused, evidence-based techniques. I am particularly skilled in helping clients navigate life transitions, manage stress, recognizing unhealthy patterns, and developing effective coping strategies.

My name is Wendy, and I have worked as a therapist for 20 years. I have been providing telehealth for almost ten years, and I find it works well for the client and myself. I plan to retire from my full -time job as a medical oncology social worker soon and want to increase my sessions with Grow Therapy. I live in Florida and am also licensed in Nevada. I have a husband, son, daughter in law and three grandchildren that I am very proud of. I love all sports, but we are a University of Florida family. Go Gators! One of my hobbies is reading historical fiction. I will gladly answer any questions you have about me and my therapy approach.

If you have experienced trauma, you may find it very difficult to trust new people. And many people who have trauma may also have fears about feeling judged, or rejected. It can even feel hard to trust your own mind. I'll work to create an emotionally safe place for you to tackle the things you feel are getting in the way of being able to live a fulfilling life, and to get the help that you need. Helping people to get better is a big part of my life. I want everyone who sits across from me to feel accepted, included and unjudged. I try my best to approach life with empathy and humor. And I hope I bring that into every therapy session.

I have a passion for working with young children, adolescents, adults, and families. I believe that a family approach to counseling can be beneficial for many to allow change to happen for the whole family unit. I see people holistically and create genuine connections with each person who crosses my path. I work with children ages 3 and up, teens, and adults and offer both in person and virtual sessions.
