I genuinely believe in the power of therapy. So much can be improved upon through supportive connections, empathy and the general resilience of the human condition. I have a vested curiosity in the lived experiences of my clients and a commitment to their growth and goals. Change itself is inevitable, and at times can feel insurmountable, that said together we can work to direct the trajectory of where those changes may take you.
A bit about me; I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor and have approximately 6 years of clinical experience. I am a born and raised Floridian - from St. Petersburg, FL - however, I spent much of my young adult life traveling and moving about (Miami, Jacksonville, Gainesville, Costa Rica, New Orleans and now back in the Tampa Bay Area). I received my Bachelors degree in Social Work, with a minor in Spanish, from the University of North Florida. In 2020, I graduated from Jacksonville University with a Masters degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling, with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy.
During my graduate study, I completed clinical internship (1500+ hours of direct client work) with a Hospice agency as a bereavement counselor. Post-graduation, I was hired by that same agency and counseled surviving loved ones of Hospice patients through their grief journey and efforts to adjust. Surviving loss is manageable and grief therapy can help with visualizing a more hopeful future that honors your loved ones.

Huntsville, AL - Accepting clients in FL
As a licensed clinical social worker, I am committed to collecting evidenced based "tools for my toolbox" to aid those grappling with finding the new normal after their world has shifted. I most love helping people find language to describe their losses, often when there has been difficulty finding the words, inspiring people to find hope again, and facilitate the development of a plan to move forward in a way that both honors their experiences and embraces the future.
I take an action-oriented, collaborative approach to therapy. I utilize a combination of psycho education, storytelling, and evidenced-based interventions to offer meaningful insight to support clients’ healing. I strongly believe that rock bottom is the foundation upon which we can rebuild our lives. We do regular check-ins to review progress along the way. Our goal is not to change the past, but instead to find some relief from symptoms that impact daily functioning. I will solicit feedback regularly during sessions for takeaways to gauge progress and curate treatment interventions based on what is most engaging and productive for the individual client.

Transformation might look like addressing symptoms, resolving a problem, or seeking something more.

Life does not always go according to plan and it sure can be messy sometimes. It is nice when you can be expressive and heard as you share your messiness. My name is Trish, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and I am here to support you and encourage you through the 'messy'. I have been in the field for over 25 years guiding, supporting, and cheering on clients, couples, and families as they make way for change. My background is serving pediatrics to geriatrics. I have a passion for working with healthcare workers, Veterans of all ages, as well as first responders, and active military. As a mother of 5 children, I have both professional and personal knowledge of child development, family systems, and the complexity of family dynamics. I have an extensive background in grief work. Keeping in mind, grief is not just a death loss but any significant change in life that was unexpected, unplanned or did not go according to plans. My interactive, supportive style of therapy is built into creating a plan of care with solution-focused goals in a short-term treatment therapy formula to assist in making changes and improvements. Life gets messy that is for sure. However, when we have the necessary tools and support during those times, we are better equipped to embrace the big events and things don't feel or look as messy.

Greetings and welcome to my page. Taking that first step to seek help can be tough, especially when you're trying to find the right therapist. Allow me to introduce myself and provide you with a summary of my experience.
My name is Florence, and I am a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 27 years of extensive experience in the field. Employing an integrative approach in my practice affords me the versatility to employ a spectrum of evidence-based interventions tailored to suit the individual needs of my clients. Moreover, I operate from a trauma-informed and culturally sensitive perspective. I have worked with a variety of populations across the lifespan. From conducting outreach to marginalized individuals within the confines of the New York City subway system to comforting clients and families in nursing homes and long-term care facilities, I aim to be compassionate, understanding, non-judgmental and culturally competent.
Specializing in addressing the mental health needs of both youth and adults, I am adept at navigating various challenges such as life transitions, academic concerns, depression, anxiety, bereavement, and trauma.
One of my greatest passions is youth development and social emotional learning. There is profound fulfillment in facilitating individuals in acquiring the tools to navigate emotions, bolster resilience, foster confidence, and nurture self-esteem.

Lutz, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Hi! I am a heterosexual cisgender woman, and my husband and I have a 15 year old son. I'm originally from St. Louis, Missouri but I have lived in Florida for 34 years and it's my home. I hate snow.
I think of myself as a girl-next-door therapist. New clients often tell me I'm easy to talk to. I like to use humor whenever possible. My approach is gentle and humble. I'll never go beyond your comfort level of discussion. My office is where you can spew your thoughts, cry and talk about yourself. I have had clients say things about their life that would not be acceptable in most settings, and being able to talk about it is often very freeing.
I became a master's level social worker at 32, and my life experience prior to that enabled my ability to understand different types of people and what motivates them. I've been in this field for 16 years and I have worked in foster care, hospice and other medical settings and outpatient mental health settings.

Frequently asked questions
Why filter by Florida rather than a city
like Tampa?
When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in the state. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Florida from Miami to Jacksonville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Florida.
Will my therapist take insurance?
When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.
How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?
The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.
What are the "Clients say I'm" badges?
Grow Therapy asks patients about their experience with therapists after they have had a certain number of sessions. After enough responses, we add those characteristics to their profiles to help you find the best online therapists for you. We're still working on collecting this information from all our therapists.
Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?
Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.
What to expect during your first session?
Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs.
Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center. Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
