Hi, I’m Liza Melgar, LMHC, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over five years of experience helping teens, adults, and older adults navigate anxiety, trauma, depression, and life transitions. My style is warm, direct, and collaborative. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe, understood, and empowered to make real change. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused CBT, I’ll help you build practical coping skills while uncovering the deeper patterns holding you back. In our sessions, you can expect a space that’s supportive yet honest where you can explore, heal, and reconnect with your inner strength at your own pace. My goal is to help you not only feel better but also create lasting change that aligns with who you are and how you want to live. If you’re ready to start healing, growing, and moving toward a more grounded version of yourself, I’d be honored to walk beside you on that journey.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist nearing 20 years’ experience, I work with a foundation of Solution Focus and Systemic Therapy. I’m often looking for "the funny" in the moment and the world around me. I greatly enjoy sarcasm, snark, and satire. I'm fairly casual but have been told I "Clean up well", and clients have told me in the past they appreciate that I do not come across as "stuffy". I'm often daydreaming of going on cruises with my wife and occasionally think about bringing our children as well. I treasure a long nap in a hammock, and I love movie. Once upon a time I even submitted a short film to the Cannes Film Festival (wasn't selected) but I did enter. Prior to being a therapist, I found myself listening and caring, as people would end up just talking to me and telling me their life story. I decided I should put that to good use. Additionally, growing up my family was fortunate to be able to adopt and quickly we became a larger family that could not remember when my sister was not part of the family. Through the process, I realized how important family and relationships. I appreciate and look forward to the chance to help others get through the rough patches, when life hits hard. When the answer is not easily found, we take time to look at all the options and find something, at least one step towards better. We're not looking for perfection, just looking for progress, a little bit here and there.

Not peace that comes from avoiding conflict, but the kind that comes from being fully seen, heard, and understood even in the mess. Most of us develop habits and defenses to get through life. Some serve us, others start to block us. My job is to help you see the difference, get curious about where they come from, and decide which ones you’re ready to let go of. We live in a world that rewards performance and discourages authenticity. This work is about slowing down, cutting through the noise, and reconnecting with what matters so you can live in alignment with who you really are, not who you've been told to be.

My journey to counseling has been both personal and professional. Before becoming a therapist, I spent nearly two decades working in the nonprofit world—helping people navigate challenges, systems, and life transitions. In my 30s, I went back to school to earn my master’s degree in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University and became a Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I’ve been practicing since 2014, seeing clients in person through 2020 and virtually ever since. Along the way, I’ve experienced my own seasons of loss, grief, family challenges, and major life transitions—including surviving cancer. Those experiences gave me a deep respect for the courage it takes to ask for help and the strength required to keep moving forward. I bring that understanding into every session, creating a space that is compassionate, grounded, and genuinely human. I am licensed in both Florida and Vermont and currently offer virtual therapy for adult women who are navigating life transitions—whether building their careers, managing family responsibilities, or moving through midlife changes. I also work with clients who are struggling with symptoms like anxiety, depression, trauma, and challenges related to chronic illness.

Anxiety, depression, and relationship issues are experiences that many of us encounter at various times in our lives. If you are feeling overwhelmed by negative emotions or believe you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any combination of stressors affecting your peace of mind and relationships, we may be a good fit for each other. You are not alone in your struggles, and you deserve to regain the peace of mind and joy that seem to elude you right now. My primary goal is to help you transition from merely feeling good to truly living well. I draw from a range of educational, career, and life experiences to support individuals holistically. My therapeutic approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Process-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with mind-body techniques. As a licensed marriage and family therapist and a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst with over 30 years of experience, I employ compassion, positive psychology, and Mindfulness to help adults and adolescents reach their fullest potential. Therapy provides a safe space to address mental health struggles and overcome challenges. My methods, particularly ACT, CBT, and Positive Psychology, are effective in treating issues such as addiction, anxiety, depression, anger, and trauma. They also assist individuals and couples facing relationship or parenting difficulties. Through ACT, you will learn to be more psychologically present, connect with your values, and make space for life’s inevitable pain. You will also discover how to take actionable steps despite emotional discomfort and cultivate an appreciation for each moment in your life. While my specialty is brief therapy, some situations may require an extended therapeutic relationship, which can be beneficial for adults and parents dealing with complex mental health challenges and navigating difficult child-rearing adjustments at home.

Hi! I am Dr. Barnes Marrero, licensed psychologist / Clinical Neuropsychologist, providing culturally informed psychological and neuropsychological evaluations in English and Spanish to adult and older adults from Florida. Know that I am here to support you. It’s my priority to make you feel at ease. It can feel scary to sit for an assessment. Feeling anxious, unsettled, or nervous about the process is normal. Testing can sometimes feel like a cold process. I promise, there’s nothing to be afraid of. It is not like school—there are no right or wrong answers; it is not a pass-or-fail situation. Instead, it’s a way to gain a comprehensive understanding of what you’re going through. I will meet you genuinely interested in where you’ve been and what’s happening. You will experience a YOU-centered judgment-free space. I hope my easygoing and friendly nature makes you comfortable.
