Lazy Lake, FL - Accepting clients in FL
I see the quiet strength it takes to keep going when the past feels heavy and the future uncertain. You have lived through trauma—pain that has left its mark on your body, mind, and heart. Whether it’s family wounds, sexual or physical abuse, or the unique challenges of navigating your identity in a world that hasn’t always embraced you, your experience is deeply real and profoundly valid.
It’s okay to feel lost, overwhelmed, or disconnected. It’s okay to have days when simply surviving feels like the bravest thing you can do. You are not broken—you are human. You have carried burdens that no one should have to carry alone, and yet here you are, still moving forward, still seeking healing and wholeness.
This is a space where your story can be held with tenderness and respect. Where your pain is met with empathy, and your growth is celebrated, no matter how small it may seem. You deserve to be seen, heard, and understood exactly as you are.
You are not defined by what happened to you. You are defined by your courage to face each day and your capacity to heal in your own time and way. I see you. I honor your journey. And I hold space for all the parts of you that are still finding their way back to joy and peace. I see you.

Struggling with addiction can feel isolating—but you don’t have to face it alone. Whether you are dealing with substance use, alcohol dependence, or trying to make sense of repeated relapses, I offer a space where you can be honest, understood, and supported without judgment.
With over 15 years of experience as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Master’s Level Certified Addiction Professional (MCAP) in Florida, I’ve worked alongside individuals at every stage of recovery. I understand how complex addiction is—and how much strength it takes to ask for help.
I specialize in working with people navigating addiction, trauma, mental health challenges, and major life transitions. I use evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and trauma-informed care to support meaningful, lasting change. I believe therapy works best when it’s a collaborative process—where your voice is valued and your goals guide the work we do together.
I also bring a personal understanding of the recovery process, which allows me to meet clients with both clinical expertise and authentic empathy. Whether you’re newly sober, returning to recovery, or just starting to question your relationship with substances, you’ll be met with compassion, honesty, and real support every step of the way.

Lehigh Acres, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Hi, I'm Chris! I've been practicing since 2016 and have worked with a variety of clients such as domestic violence survivors, human trafficking survivors, people with anger issues, individuals in difficult relationships, people who are depressed, people who have anxiety, individuals with PTSD, individuals in jails and prisons, and people who just aren't sure of where to turn to for help.
I earned my Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Hodges University, and my BS in Criminal Justice from Florida Gulf Coast University. I started my private practice in 2022 after working for a national public mental health agency, which specializes in serious mental illness.

Tallahassee, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Hello, I’m Davia, and I’m of Jamaican descent.
Seeking mental health counseling is normalizing because mental health professionals continue to speak about, advocate for, and accept its presence in our clients’ lives. You are not alone if you seek mental health counseling. In fact, you are courageous and aware that getting help is a sign of indomitable strength.
Are you lacking boundaries or wondering why life seems topsy-turvy? Do you function in survival mode but struggle with exhaustion or burnout?
I help clients develop mindfulness to reduce stress, anxiety, or depression while increasing balance and a healthy lifestyle.
We will work together to identify areas that are out of alignment. In our sessions together, I will utilize evidence-based techniques along with grace and compassion so you can increase your awareness and confidence.
Welcome to your journey of healing!

Hi there, I'm Sharon, and I'm passionate about helping individuals rediscover their inner child and embark on a journey of healing the wounds from their past. As a compassionate and creative soul, I offer a unique approach to processing and addressing emotions.
Through my work, I aim to provide a safe and nurturing space for you to explore your feelings, particularly those affected by addiction and co-dependency. I firmly believe that art, not in the traditional sense but as a personal expression of one's emotions, holds the key to authenticity and self-discovery. My focus is on the process rather than performance, making it a soulful and liberating experience I call "soul art."
As part of my commitment to excellence, I am currently pursuing my certification in Creative Journaling Expressive Arts with the CJEAItm. This additional training allows me to integrate journaling and expressive art techniques into our sessions, offering you a dynamic and creative approach to healing and personal growth.
If you're ready to embark on a transformative journey, exploring your emotions through the creative lens, I'm here to support and guide you every step of the way. Let's work together to nurture your inner child and empower you to lead a more fulfilling life.
