Therapists in Florida

Hi! As a Licensed Clinician, mental health is my passion. This is why I created my private practice, Positive Mindful Counseling, which has empathetic and dedicated clinicians, whose goal is to provide the most comfortable, evidence-based, and solution-focused counseling. I specialize in Individual, family, and Group Therapy, always focusing on progress toward clear, measurable, and personalized goals. Services are provided both in our office and via telehealth. My educational background includes a Master’s Degree in Mental Health Counseling with an active license in the state of Florida. I am also a Ph.D. candidate in the Human Services field. I have practiced psychotherapy for multiple years using empathetic skills, always finding the appropriate angle to build trust with my clients, which is necessary to achieve positive results. My passion for mental health and wellness is seen in the work I do!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of professional mental health experience. I graduated with my Bachelor's in Psychology in 2008 and my Master's degree in Counselor Education, with a graduate certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, in 2012. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, which has given me a wide range of clinical experience and allowed me to work with clients from different walks of life and cultural backgrounds. I am radical and revolutionary in thought and praxis and believe in a liberated and equitable world for all people. Clients who tend to be attracted to me are those who may struggle with a lack of confidence and self-esteem, those who are plagued with "Imposter Syndrome", and those who identify as people-pleasers. I also work with People of Color on healing internalized oppression. My clients are often very bright and self-aware but feel they are missing the tools, accountability and higher-level knowledge to get themselves into action and start making tangible, concrete progress. Additional areas of focus: Addictions, LGBT, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Depression, Coping with life changes, Life Purpose, Multicultural Concerns, Prejudice and Discrimination, Self-Love, Women's Issues Therapy does not have to be a years-long, overwhelming or deeply painful process. Many people I have worked with have remarked that they were surprised at how quickly they were able to feel a sense of progress, where they felt stagnant for years or decades prior. While I am very good at what I do, I can only meet you as far and as deep as you are willing to go yourself. Those who are proactive about their healing work and take responsibility tend to make the most progress in the least amount of time.

After having a career in the medical and academic fields, I went back to college to earn my MSW and LCSW. My focus was to develop the skills necessary to help people in my community. My mission is to give back to the community and to help those who need to overcome the paralyzing effects of depression, anxiety, and dysfunctional thinking rather caused by academic stress/change, a medical condition, relationship issues or life stresses. People suffering from depression, anxiety, panic, and OCD are often not only battling the disease but also its impact on their families. The impacts are great. The impact can be job loss or change, financial issues, marriage difficulties, or family dynamic shifts. Most patients have one or more of these impacts to deal with at the same time they are dealing with their condition. The combination can be very overwhelming and difficult to understand. My focus is to help my clients learn to cope with the new challenges of their condition. Together, we will explore the tools that can be used to learn to cope. I believe that together we can make a very difficult time easier

I’m an EMDR and trauma specialist helping adults with anxiety, ADHD, burnout, and emotional overwhelm feel more grounded, regulated, and in control. Maybe it’s anxiety that won’t ease up, trauma that keeps resurfacing in subtle ways, ADHD that makes life feel harder than it should, or burnout that leaves your nervous system constantly on alert. You may look like you’re holding everything together on the outside—while feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, irritable, or exhausted on the inside. I help adults who feel overactivated, stressed, or emotionally overloaded finally get relief. I work with clients navigating anxiety, trauma, burnout, chronic stress, and ADHD—the issues that keep your nervous system stuck in high-alert mode. Many of my clients are professionals, parents, athletes, or high achievers who’ve already tried talking through the problem but still feel reactive, drained, or stuck in patterns they can’t seem to shift. If you’re tired of carrying everything alone, therapy can help you feel grounded, connected, and clear again. Flexible scheduling available—morning, midday, evening, and new Friday openings (11am–3pm) for clients using insurance. I frequently work with clients using Aetna, BCBS, and United and offer consistent availability for those seeking EMDR, trauma therapy, or anxiety treatment through their commercial benefits. As an EMDR-trained trauma therapist, I combine EMDR with CBT, ACT, and Transformational EMDR to help your brain and body process trauma, reduce anxiety, and release stuck emotional patterns. This work goes beyond symptom management—we address what’s underneath so you can feel more regulated, confident, and in control. Common issues I help with include anxiety, panic, overwhelm, ADHD, burnout, perfectionism, medical trauma, ACEs, chronic stress, performance anxiety, irritability, and shutdown patterns. Therapy with me is structured, supportive, and results-focused—built to create real, noticeable change.

Hello I'm Socorro. My name is Socorro "Cora" Dennis, and I am a Florida Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and an Alabama Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW), and I work with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adults (18 and up), and specialize in anxiety, stress, grief, and addiction using Client-centered and strength based approaches and incorporating Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to help my clients make progress and start feeling better.

Hi! I was born in Puerto Rico, but I have been living in the United States since 1990. I graduated with my Bachelors of Arts in Psychology from D’Youville College in Buffalo NY, then with my Master in Social Work at the University at Buffalo. I started my career as a Bi-Lingual Dual Disorder therapist at an outpatient agency in Buffalo NY. Moving to Florida in 2014, I worked with individuals who have been diagnosed with alcohol and/or substance misuse who have been linked with the court system, as well as working with children, adolescents, and adults who have experienced complex trauma. I have experience in working as a program manager providing guidance and clinical direction to other therapists, as well as providing therapeutic services to individuals within the LGBTQAI+ community and those who have been impacted by an HIV diagnosis. Throughout my career I have been able to gain knowledge on different types of diagnoses and resources in order to assist in improving individuals overall well-being in a holistic way.

I would describe my style as validating, supportive, and down to earth. Clients often share that they feel comfortable being their authentic selves with me, which is one of my highest priorities in the therapy space. I bring both professional expertise and lived experience, creating a balance of humility and wisdom. While I don’t claim to know everything, I work hard to share what I’ve learned while remaining open and collaborative. I view therapy as a relationship that parallels the important connections in your life. I will meet you where you are, get to know you on your terms, and walk alongside you as you move toward growth. My goal is to provide a safe environment where you feel respected, supported, and challenged to become the best version of yourself.

Since 2012, I have worked with a variety of clients dealing with circumstances that are unique to their lives. Life can be complicated and having someone in your corner can ease fears and worries while allowing for growth and healing. My passion as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor is working with individuals and couples who have experienced trauma and difficult times. As a wife, mom, grandmother, and dog mom, I also enjoy assisting family and friends in reaching their goals. I will be here to encourage you, support you and validate you. I know making the decision to come to therapy can be difficult, scary and leave you feeling vulnerable but taking that first step is the key to unlocking the door towards becoming your best self. You are the true expert of yourself and often just need additional encouragement to identify and explore areas that are no longer working.  Vulnerability, shame, and guilt can prevent you from seeking the help and support you need to find solace in your head, heart and life. I am a daughter of Veteran and wife of a fire fighter. I know personally the stigmas and stressors that come along with seeking treatment. I have a deep understanding and love of the firefighting, EMT, and paramedic communities. Break those chains that keep you from seeking, happiness, forgiveness, healing, and serenity. One of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. Having a good grasp of the very real issues with which first responders must face and handle on a daily basis I will help you navigate the issues and memories that haunt you and find real, lasting solutions for long term healing. I promise I won't bite, but I am a loud Bostonian haha!  Allow me to walk and guide you on your path to uncovering and rediscovering who you are and what you already know but struggling to see.

Hi, my name is Dr. Angela Noe, but you can call me Angie. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in ADHD, depression, bipolar disorder, anger and emotion dysregulation difficulties, communication skill development, the development of coping skills to help with adjusting to life stressors, and psychological testing. Therapy clients tend to describe me as down to earth, nonjudgmental, direct, and never boring. I'm also the type of therapist who doesn't mind cursing, and I make frequent references to memes. My therapy dog Diamond will make an appearance during sessions, too :) For those interested in psychological testing in FL, especially ADHD testing, please schedule an intake appointment through here; after the intake is complete, we can move forward with the evaluation (testing services covered by aetna, avmed, magellan, oscar, optum, uhc, and self-pay at this time).

My name is Der'Resha Bastien. I am a dog whisperer; I adore vintage clothing, and I enjoy event planning. I am also a Licensed Professional Counselor in Florida, Colorado, and Arizona. I offer a safe and supportive space for individuals managing anxiety, depression, or navigating their responses to trauma. It takes courage to engage in therapy and make positive changes in your life. My priority is to encourage you along the way and remind you that it is possible to experience the life you deserve.

As a clinical social worker, I use a strength-based and person-centered approach when working with clients. My expertise is treating anxiety, depression and OCD and I have experience working with clients seeking support for many other challenges as well. My clients include adults, families, and teens. I personalize each treatment plan and makes sure that I am working with the client, not just the diagnosis. My goal is to make clients feel empowered on their journey through their mental health challenges and other adversities. I am a strong proponent of building a therapeutic alliance with every client I work with - trust and mutual respect between myself and clients are essential. I like to make my sessions lively and come prepared each time we meet. Therapy is hard work but that doesn't mean it can't be fun as well!
