Life is complicated enough—and it doesn’t come with a manual. But therapy can be a space where we begin drafting one, together. My goal is to help you live more authentically, compassionately, and in better company with yourself, one step at a time. My approach is rooted in empathy, curiosity, and collaboration. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities including CBT, DBT, ACT, and existential therapy to meet you where you are. I’m a trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming, client-centered therapist who takes a holistic view of healing. I graduated with a Master's degree in Social Work from Florida Atlantic University in 2021, I obtained my post-graduate license to practice social work in 2024. I have experience supporting individuals navigating depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, PTSD, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, and personality disorders. Together, we’ll build a strong therapeutic alliance, identify unhelpful thought patterns and core beliefs, and work toward sustainable, meaningful change. I believe healing is deeply personal, and no two journeys look the same. As Carl Sagan once said: "I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way."

I also draw on distress tolerance and emotional regulation techniques to support clients in managing difficult emotions with compassion and resilience. At the heart of my practice is the belief that each person has the capacity for growth and change. I strive to meet clients where they are, honoring their lived experiences while guiding them toward greater confidence, balance, and authenticity.

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals move from overwhelm and self-doubt into clarity, confidence, and emotional stability. I work with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship stress, attachment wounds, low self-esteem, and major life transitions. Many of the people I support are high-functioning individuals who appear “put together” on the outside but feel exhausted, anxious, or lost internally. They are often navigating complex emotions, difficult patterns, or uncertainty about their direction in life. My therapeutic style blends warmth, structure, and deep insight. My goal is to help you understand yourself on a deeper level—your patterns, beliefs, triggers, and needs—so that you can begin creating real and lasting change. I offer a calm, nonjudgmental space where you can process your emotions openly while learning practical skills to manage stress, regulate your nervous system, and build healthier boundaries and relationships. I believe therapy should be both supportive and empowering. Together, we’ll explore the “why” behind your patterns while also building the “how” of moving forward. I help clients reconnect with their strengths, reframe limiting beliefs, and develop tools that promote emotional balance and self-trust. Whether you’re navigating heartbreak, burnout, uncertainty, or simply wanting to understand yourself better, I’m here to guide you with compassion and clarity. My goal is to help you feel grounded, capable, and in control of your life again.

I’m a husband and dad to three boys (ages 16, 13 and 8), and family is a huge part of my life. We live on a 20-acre homestead where we raise chickens, goats, pigs, and cows, and we spend a lot of time in the garden. Life on the farm keeps me grounded and reminds me daily of the value of patience, hard work, and slowing down to enjoy what really matters. Faith and community are also central for me. I’m actively involved in my church, and I see my work as an extension of that calling to walk alongside others. I’ve always had an entrepreneurial streak. Alongside my therapy work, I am starting a tech start-up, I’ve run an online store, and I even dabble in Bitcoin mining. I enjoy the challenge of building things from the ground up and thinking outside the box. I also read a lot, and my libertarian leanings have been shaped by writers like Murray Rothbard. The conservative/libertarian focus on freedom, personal responsibility and low time preference connects deeply with how I approach life and therapy: we’re at our best when we are free to live with responsibility in society, own our choices, and pursue truth apart from coercion. When it comes to therapy itself, I integrate my faith with practical, proven methods. I use Christian Counseling, CBT, Reality Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and the Gottman Method to help people grow emotionally, spiritually, and relationally. My goal is to give you a space where your values are respected, your faith is honored, and you feel equipped to face life’s challenges with hope and clarity. If you’re looking for a therapist who understands the importance of faith, family, freedom, and practical tools for change, I’d love to walk with you on your journey.

Outside of my work as a therapist, I’m an animal lover, avid reader, wife, mom, and passionate Florida gardener with a love for native plants and sustainable gardening. I believe that nurturing both our inner and outer environments helps create a sense of harmony and connection.

If you’re feeling worn out from always being the strong one, stuck in patterns of people-pleasing, or carrying the weight of past trauma, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to keep doing it all by yourself. I help adults heal from PTSD, burnout, codependency, people-pleasing, and spiritual or sexual trauma, so they can finally feel safe, confident, and at peace in their own skin. In our work together, you’ll learn practical tools to calm your mind, set healthy boundaries that actually stick, and rebuild a sense of trust—in yourself and in others. My style is down-to-earth, compassionate, and real. I use proven approaches like CBT, Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, all within a trauma-informed, strengths-based framework. You don’t need to have it all figured out—you just need a safe space to start. My job is to help you find relief, clarity, and the courage to move forward—one grounded, doable step at a time.

Hello! My name is Dan, and I am a licensed mental health counselor. I am passionate about my profession and enjoy helping my clients achieve their individual goals. It is exciting to see a client go from where they were to where they want to be in their lives! This is all achieved by tailoring my sessions to the needs of each person I work with. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. One of the most powerful effects I have found in therapy is providing a safe space where you are heard, understood, and accepted. We all have stress and struggle at times and there is great healing in exploring and touching those feelings. Let's work together towards your goals!

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Clinical Hypnotherapist, but more than that, I work with people who feel stuck in patterns they understand but still can’t seem to break. Maybe it shows up in relationships that feel familiar but painful, putting others first so you don’t lose them, or slipping back into old habits when emotions become overwhelming. You’re not broken. You are repeating a pattern that once kept you safe but now keeps you stuck. I help clients who look strong and “put together” on the outside, but internally feel disconnected, unseen, or like they’re always fighting themselves. You might know why you do what you do because you’ve read the books, tried therapy before, told yourself you’d choose differently, and yet something still pulls you back. My approach is real, honest, and compassionate. We won’t just talk about the surface problem. We’ll work with the deeper beliefs and emotional wiring underneath it. Together, we identify what keeps you abandoning yourself, and begin rebuilding from a place of self-trust, worthiness, and grounded clarity.

Are you a high-achieving woman who looks successful on the outside but feels stuck, overwhelmed, or unfulfilled inside? Do you find yourself procrastinating, doubting your abilities, or striving for perfection, only to fall short of your own expectations? If you’re tired of self-sabotaging patterns holding you back, you’re in the right place. I’m here to help you break free from these self-defeating patterns and together we’ll explore the underlying causes of your self-sabotage, uncover your inner strengths, and develop practical strategies to empower you to move forward with confidence and clarity. If you have a great career, stable housing, your bills are paid (on time), maybe even running a household with kids, and you look like, to others, you have it all together. Yet you find yourself stuck in the “perfectionism,” “people-pleasing,” or “procrastination” tendencies. You look around at all you “have” and feel like you “should” be happy. Yet, there is this persistent feeling of not feeling fulfilled. No matter what accomplishment you achieve, there is “always” another and even when you do reach that next bar, the “good feelings” are short-lived. If you’re tired of being stuck in these same old cycles, you’re in the right place.

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 Self Esteem?

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. For example, your selected specialty, Self Esteem, is filtering therapists in Florida that work with patients with similar concerns.

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.
