Book 100+ of the best Harvard Pilgrim/UnitedHealthcare therapists in Florida

I've been blessed to have wonderful professional positions throughout my career (see roderickhaferphd.com). Most recently I was Vice-Chair of the Psychiatry Department at the University of Wisconsin. I enjoy working with all client presentations and believe that the "connection" with those I treat is critical to therapy success. I think a 15 to 30 minute free consultation would be the best approach to determine "our fit" in working together.

As a dedicated therapist, I believe in fostering a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered. With 7 years of experience in anxiety, depression, and stress management. I work collaboratively with individuals to help them navigate life's challenges, develop coping strategies, and promote emotional well-being. Outside of my professional life, I’m a proud spouse and find joy in spending quality time with my family and friends. I love exploring new places, whether it’s a local hidden gem or a far-off destination, as it brings me a sense of adventure and perspective. When I’m not working, I’m often staying active with workouts or indulging in my love for food, always seeking new culinary experiences to enjoy with loved ones. I truly believe that life is a balance of personal growth, meaningful connections, and self-care, and I am here to support you in that journey. Whether you’re working through a challenging moment or striving for personal growth, I look forward to partnering with you on your path to healing.

As a seasoned LCSW with 18+ years of experience, I offer a holistic approach to therapy that honors the interconnectedness of your mind, body, and soul. Through collaborative exploration, we can work together to create a path towards healing and transformation in a supportive and non-judgmental environment. Building strong therapeutic relationships is foundational to my approach, as it fosters trust and facilitates meaningful change. My passion lies in empowering clients to achieve greater independence and well-being. I equip them with practical skills and tools they can utilize beyond therapy, fostering lasting growth. Drawing upon diverse experiences both personally and professionally, I possess strong cultural competency. This allows me to connect with clients from various backgrounds and understand their unique perspectives. Moreover, I am dually licensed in New York and Florida, providing flexibility to serve clients across state lines.

I’m a licensed therapist with over a decade of experience, specializing in anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

My goal is to assist you in navigating life changes, overcoming obstacles, and achieving a more fulfilling and happier life. I am dedicated to providing compassionate and understanding support throughout your therapeutic journey.

I am the wife of a Retired Combat Veteran and a mother to four beautiful children. I understand the complexities of being separated from your spouse for extended periods and feeling alone in the relationship and raising the children. Even the most well-prepared and successful person can find themselves wondering how things became so complicated, messy, or challenging, and feel at a loss when it comes to what to do to put the pieces back together. People have been shaped and molded by their past experiences, both good and bad. Often, people feel drawn to focus on the bad experiences, leading to pain and struggles of many kinds.

I am someone who likes to make a difference. I love helping people, and love seeing the changes client's can make when they know the path through. My therapeutic approach is inspired by a profound message from one of my favorite therapists: “You may feel like you're in the desert right now, but I will walk beside you. I won't pull you or push you. When you're tired, we'll rest. When you're scared, I'll stand with you. When you're sad, I'll sit with you. Together, we will reach the other side.” These words continue to resonate deeply with me and shape my compassionate, supportive practice.

I am a licensed clinical social worker and clinical hypnotherapist specializing in life success for all ages. The more you look into the darkness, the lighter it becomes. This is my life statement. I have seen the darkest times, and the worst of times, and have experienced personal failures in life. When I speak with clients it is from a place of empathy, understanding, compassion, and non-judgment. No one promised this life of ours would be easy, but I can promise to serve you as you work towards healing yourself. I believe that you are the expert yourself, and I am just a guide here to show you some of the tools, skills, and therapeutic approaches I have acquired.

Do you ever feel like you’re five years old again, helpless to protect yourself? Maybe you think that as an adult you should be able to handle emotions more easily, but you are often unable to soothe yourself. That experience is more common than you think, and it frequently ties back to childhood experiences. It pains me to think of someone having to go through this alone, and it’s a big reason why I became a therapist. I’m passionate about helping people heal from the past, overcome their fears, and live up to their full potential.

We all have dealt with varying levels of stress and anxiety before. It becomes an ongoing issue when we don’t address the thoughts and feelings that arise as physical symptoms slowly begin to take over. My role in this process is to assist in delving into where these thoughts began and how to move forward in future situations. Need to talk about trauma or issues with depression? Having problems in your social relationships that you’re struggling with? Feel like you’re drowning because of all the recent changes in your life? Let’s tackle this together and discover ways to overcome negative associations from the past. I help adults struggling with symptoms of anxiety, dealing with different life transitions and managing self esteem issues. I also assist with depressive symptoms, have a trauma focused background and am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I primarily use the tools of compassion, psychoeducation, mindfulness, and problem solving to offer new perspectives in dealing with instances of intergenerational trauma. In many cases, certain aspects unknowingly get repeated between parents and their children. This can be addressed through discussing your own understanding as well as opting to make changes for your future. Aside from family trauma repetitions, dealing with all the recent changes in the world can also be a source of stress and anxiety. When we meet, we’ll dive into all these stressors and establish a plan for self-care that will assist in turning all these negative thoughts and feelings into a pure sense of optimism.

I have over 20 years experience in the mental health field. I know that people are able to make changes in thoughts and feelings. I support wellness. The sessions you attend with me are for your total well-being. You can call them your well-being sessions. Each session you attend is like an investment in yourself. I provide examples, homework, and support resources in video and text.

As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I am passionate about helping individuals heal and grow. I hold a Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health from Webster University and a Bachelor’s in Psychology from the University of Phoenix. My Certification as a Clinical Trauma Professional from Evergreen (2019) and TeleMental Health Training Certificate (THTC) reflect my commitment to providing effective, evidence-based care. I am the founder of Intake Psychotherapy & Wellness, LLC, an online private practice designed to treat the whole person. My goal is to guide my clients in connecting the dots between their emotional, mental, and physical selves, so they can find the balance, wellness, and happiness they deserve. I offer tele-therapy for clients aged 19 and up across the state of Florida, specializing in the treatment of childhood and adult trauma, anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship challenges, and ADHD. With years of experience working in community health settings with adolescents, adults, and families, I understand how deeply life’s experiences—both positive and negative—shape who we are. That’s why I named my practice Intake Psychotherapy & Wellness: everything we "intake" throughout life impacts us. I help clients unlearn the patterns causing distress and rediscover their strengths, building a healthier, more fulfilling life.
