Nǐ hǎo / Hello! I am a licensed mental health therapist in Florida with over 20 years of experience helping individuals work through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, school-related stress, relationship issues, and major life challenges. Many of the people I support come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck, emotionally drained, or unsure how to move forward. I believe therapy works best when goals are clear, practical, and measurable, so we can track progress in a meaningful way. I also believe humor can be a powerful part of healing, helping create a more relaxed and human space for growth. I believe strong therapy starts with listening, truly understanding who you are, what you have been through, and what matters most to you. I use evidence-based treatment to help clients address anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship stress, school concerns, and emotional overwhelm. Together, we set goals that align with your values. In my leisure time I play music instruments, I enjoy cooking, Hotpot is my favorite food. I speak mandarin besides English and I consider myself as a people person. I am open minded willing to learn from others.

Together, we can identify what's not working and get things back to balance. We can work together for a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I'm here to help. Reaching out or therapy can feel scary, but you're making the right choice. People deserve a safe space to heal and grow.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, and life transitions. I believe that lasting change begins with understanding ourselves more deeply.

Hello, I’m Sharon Salichs, a Spanish speaking Licensed Mental Health Counselor dedicated to helping individuals navigate depression, anxiety, stress, life transitions, self-esteem concerns, and emotional overwhelm. I provide a supportive, compassionate, and judgment-free space where clients can feel heard, understood, and empowered to create meaningful change.

Together, we work on understanding patterns, improving coping skills, setting healthier boundaries, and creating realistic changes that support your emotional well-being.

Every client is unique and is facing their own distinctive challenges. Therefore each treatment plan should be personalized and individualized. An ideal client is one who comes to counseling with an open mind and is ready to try new approaches and coping skills. Each person will benefit differently from a wide variety of approaches. Together we can and will find the right strategies that work best for you. There is not a "normal" or "standard" cookie-cutter path. It is a journey! I have experience working with issues as grief, anxiety, anger, mood, neurological, trauma, relationship issues, substance use disorders, and more. I am dually independently licensed and passionate about providing the utmost quality of services to people struggling with mental health, substance use disorders and dual diagnoses. I have over 10 years of practice, including a wide array of experience, working with clients of all age groups individually, with couples and in groups. The therapeutic environment is a safe place for clients and their families to experience their vulnerabilities while sharing their stories. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, existential, EMDR, and Person-Centered treatment interventions and I have found that when using these interventions, people begin to realize the strength to overcome challenges.

Hi, I'm Britta Neinast, a licensed clinical social worker. I have years of professional and personal experience understanding anxiety and mental health struggles. Many of us are crippled with anxiety and self-doubt. Despite messages and advice, we still feel misunderstood and alone. I believe we are looking at the problem of anxiety incorrectly. The conventional wisdom is learning how to “cope" and fight your tension. I believe this approach is misleading because it gives the impression there is something wrong with you. Anxiety is your friend and has a purpose. When you listen more to what anxiety is trying to teach you, it will make sense.

I’m Diana Ries, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience in counseling and healthcare. I offer a compassionate, direct, and results-focused approach that helps clients get to the root of emotional and relational struggles. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space, provide practical tools, and help clients leave with clarity, confidence, and hope in healing.

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (Texas and Florida) I’ve worked with Individuals, Couples, Families of various sizes, with a plethora of sessions on parenting. Nearly 20 years later, it is still a privilege to work with individuals, couples in various stages or phases of their relationship and families of all sizes. 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 daydream of going on cruises with my wife, occasionally think about bringing our children along. I treasure a long nap in a hammock, and I love movies. 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. Growing up my family was fortunate to be able to adopt and quickly we became a larger family that could not remember there was a time when my sister had not been there. Through the process, I realized how important family and relationships. Clinically, I work with a foundation of Solution Focus and Systemic Therapy, with attributes of Narrative, Structural and/or Strategic. *** Writing animal support letters or ESA documentation, disability-related paperwork, court-mandated evaluations, divorce or custody agreement related paperwork would be out of the scope of my practice, therefore is not something I engage in at this time.

I am a clinical social worker, therapist & life coach. I collaborate with clients in facilitating their ability to navigate their journey through change. I provide clients the opportunity to learn, change and grow, and I provide guidance for them to learn healthy adaptive ways to improve their response to encounters with life stressors and challenging life situations. Clients are engaged in various evidence based therapeutic interventions and the exploration and discovery of their untapped potential, so they can harness the necessary skills and strategies to facilitate behavioral change. In the scope of my practice I aim to empower clients through sessions that are based on a holistic, client driven approach. I view clients through the lens of their personal environment, as their well-being is significantly shaped by their life experiences. In addressing clients presenting issues, I take into consideration the correlation between their presenting issues and their environment; i.e., social, cultural and physical, that contribute to current challenging life circumstances. Focus is given to past experiences and current situations to help them navigate their therapy encounter and future successfully.

Hello and welcome! I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with almost eight years of experience supporting children, teens, and adults. I earned my Master’s degree from Barry University and have a passion for helping people navigate life’s challenges—whether that’s anxiety, depression, school or work stress, or relationship difficulties. In our work together, I focus on teaching healthy coping strategies, improving communication skills, and finding effective ways to manage emotional triggers. My goal is to empower you to feel more balanced, confident, and fulfilled in your daily life. Outside of my professional role, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and playing card games. I’m dedicated to ongoing learning, both personally and professionally, so I can continue to provide the best support possible. I believe that every challenge offers an opportunity for growth, and I’m here to walk alongside you as you take steps toward healing and change. Above all, I strive to create a warm, welcoming space where you can feel comfortable being yourself.

Hey, My name is Ariel, If you're reading this, you may be carrying challenges that feel overwhelming, uncertain, or difficult to navigate alone.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered to grow. Together, we can work toward greater balance, healing, and confidence as you move forward in your journey. It would be a privilege to walk alongside you.

Hello there! I believe that a person can change. I also beleive that each person deserves to feel heard and respected. My goal for you is to feel as though you can work through your issues and learn to manage your life, be content with who you are, and be happy. I work with individuals to remediate any number of issues in their lives, to make decisions, and to manage difficult cognitive or emotional experiences. I work with couples to learn to address conflict, learn new skills, and learn how to live lives together. I think of counseling as a process where you and I build a relationship and work together to address whatever issues are impacting you. I'm a holistic counselor, meaning that I will help you explore multiple aspects of your life, including how you engage socially, how you think about situations, how you manage or express your emotions, your behaviors and skills, the quality of your interactions with family and friends, and other areas. I believe that we all have untapped resources, both internal and external, that we can use to make our lives better. In terms of my background, I have worked in non-profit and two private practice environments. I have also served as a faculty member in clinical mental health counseling programs since 2011. I train future generations of counselors to work with people. I hold several licenses and certifications. I am a Nationally Certified Counselor as well as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Tennessee. I am also a Qualified Supervisor in Florida. I have published several manuscripts, a book on the assessment and treatment of trauma and I have current works in press. conventions.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing teletherapy to teens, adults, and couples. I collaborate with patients to find solutions to the challenges that disrupt their lives. Overcoming a crisis in your relationship, working your way through loss as you grieve a loved one or life change, managing feelings or moods that overwhelm you and keep you from healthy functioning......these are just a few of the reasons that people begin therapy. Whatever might be challenging you and keeping you from living your best life, we can find solutions together, in therapy. Let's get started!

I believe everyone has the ability to find their strength and wellness. Sometimes it takes a little extra support to get you there and that is where I come in. With almost two decades of experience in the field, we will work together as a team to reach your goals. There is no timeframe to reach these goals and we will get there at your speed. I treat therapy like you are driving a car, you choose the direction and speed while I act as GPS and help guide the path.

You're exhausted, wondering if anyone is going to reach your teenage son with ADHD. I was that kid and found my way through. Your son is struggling the same way I did. ADHD, too much homework, too little interest, too many people telling him to just try harder. I didn't get real support until the end of high school. Treatment changed the trajectory of my life. I went from community college to the University of Florida, then to a Master of Social Work from Florida State. My bachelor's was in Education Sciences with a specialization in Educational Psychology, which means I understand how ADHD plays out in a classroom, where so much of your son's pain probably lives. School is hard enough for these kids already, which is why I see clients in the evenings and on weekends. Therapy shouldn't add to what school is already taking from him.

Hi! I'm Shenita, a licensed mental health counselor for the last 11 years. During this time, I've worked with veterans (battling mental health/substance abuse challenges), couples (relationship counseling), children (emotional regulation/behavior modification), and parenting (parenting psychoeducation). My clients would describe me as relatable, respectful, and dedicated to their personal growth. I approach therapy from a team perspective. My goal is to help my clients navigate this thing called life through self-empowerment, distress tolerance/healthy coping mechanisms, and the ability to pivot when necessary. Let me help you become the author of your own life's story!!

Welcome! My name is Angie Hamilton and I’m a Licensed Psychotherapist. Are you tired of life weighing you down? Do you want to get un-stuck? Do you keep repeating the same mistakes? I specialize in anxiety, PTSD, trauma, self-esteem issues, and also addictions. I use traditional psycho-analytic techniques to get to the bottom of the issues to the root causes. They say it will feel worse before it gets better, but I promise you it is well worth it, and YOU are worth it. I'm honest and will give you a clear view of what I see is going on! I believe healing is found in the truth. PLEASE ONLY BOOK APPOINTMENTS ON THE FULL HOUR.

Many people come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, burned out, or emotionally exhausted from constantly caring for others while neglecting their own needs. If you’re caring for an aging parent, spouse, or another loved one over the age of 18, you don’t have to carry that stress alone. My name is Clint, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving clients in Florida and Alabama. I specialize in supporting caregivers of older adults and individuals with disabilities over the age of 18 who may be struggling with burnout, anxiety, guilt, stress, or feeling emotionally drained. As a former primary caregiver for my father, I understand firsthand the emotional and practical challenges caregiving can bring. Balancing medical appointments, family responsibilities, work demands, and the emotional weight of supporting a loved one can leave little time to care for yourself. Since 2011, I’ve worked alongside caregivers and families to help reduce burnout, build healthier boundaries, improve coping skills, and create more balance in daily life. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and focused on practical tools you can use outside of sessions. I draw from evidence-based approaches such as CBT, ACT, and supportive therapy to help clients manage stress, navigate difficult emotions, and reconnect with their own well-being. You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. The first session is simply an opportunity for us to talk about what’s been weighing on you and explore whether working together feels like a good fit — with no pressure or expectations. If you’re ready for support, I’d be honored to work alongside you.

Hi, I'm Anabel. I work with young adults who are ready to grow: leveling up how you communicate, setting boundaries that stick, building self-worth, and learning to manage your emotions instead of getting hijacked by them. Picture making decisions without the guilt spiral, saying what you need without over-explaining yourself, and handling hard moments from a calm, grounded place instead of full-on reacting. Picture relationships built on honesty and respect, including with yourself. If that sounds like what you're going for, let's connect!

I've also had the privilege of working in group settings with the homeless population many of whom suffered from major mental illnesses. I appreciate you taking this big step and allowing me to support you through this journey in your life.

I work especially with people dealing with trauma, persistent depression, and anxiety. My approach is warm, straightforward, and collaborative. We’ll work together to understand what is happening, why certain patterns keep showing up, and what you can realistically do to change them. I believe therapy should be both compassionate and useful. I will listen and validate your experience, but I will also challenge you when it is helpful and teach you skills you can use outside of our sessions. Most importantly, you don’t have to come into therapy knowing exactly what you need. You just need to be willing to start figuring it out. My job is to meet you where you are, help you understand yourself better, and work with you toward feeling more like yourself again.

You DESERVE to Re-SET, To Re-FUEL, To Re-CHARGE. And then TAKE FLIGHT! Since entering the field of therapy I have learned to ascribe to the adage “all behavior has meaning.” Yes, ALL behavior. A deep curiosity for why we all act and think the way we do coupled with my own life’s challenges and experiences has led me to a place of compassion for not only my own life choices but compassion for others. Our thoughts lead to feelings, which leads to action. We are not always proud of our actions. As a woman, mother, wife, and veteran I know all too well the shame that comes with our personal choices and behaviors. I also know there is also a fear of JUDGEMENT when it comes to considering therapy. This is a no-judgement zone and if you are seeking a different feeling and action in your life then you have landed at the right place!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist with over 20 years of experience working with diverse populations. I have worked in a variety of settings providing mental health care to individuals and families. Open and honest therapy is what I offer. No matter the issue, your feelings are of value to you and sometimes this is hard to decipher what you are dealing with on your own. Getting through a painful experience is much like crossing monkey bars, you have to let go at some point to move forward. If you change nothing, nothing will change and I try to provide clarity to issues that may be troubling. Physical health and mental health work hand in hand. Therapy can assist with understanding that a balanced life begins with a healthy mind. Providing a safe place for feelings is a goal for providing therapeutic intervention that helps you feel comfortable.

Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, or any other mental health concern, I'm here to listen, understand, and support you on your journey to healing. I believe that mental health is just as important as physical health and that everyone deserves access to high-quality mental health care. That's why I'm committed to providing you with a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential space where you can share your thoughts and feelings without fear of stigma or shame. Together, we'll work collaboratively to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets your unique needs and goals. You don't have to face these challenges alone. I'm here to help you build resilience, increase self-awareness, and cultivate a sense of well-being. I'm honored to be a part of your journey!

Hello there! Welcome to Grow Therapy. You may call me Paul. Do you find it difficult to connect with or find a therapist that places you first? I place a huge emphasis on listening to you while using a person-centered approach. I empower you to be able to identify what it is that is troubling you in a complex world of thoughts and emotions. We'll use a holistic model to integrate mind, body, and spirit. This encourages you to discover the skills or strategies that help you to be the best you can be. I help people learn to identify the root of their issue(s). This not only addresses the symptoms but improves healing at the core of the problem thereby promoting lasting change. I truly believe in a person's ability to grow and change as you travel down your pathway to mental health and well-being. Learning to live in the present allows us to experience healing and wellness in the here and now. Whether you're dealing with complex relationship issues that seem hopeless and overwhelming or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. I strive to create a safe and comfortable space where healing and growth are encouraged. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with trust, empathy and compassion while using evidence-based techniques so you can overcome barriers and obstacles that have been holding you back. I am honored to work with you and wish you all the best on your journey.

Sometimes people experience emotional problems (e.g., anxiety, depression), behavioral problems (e.g., overeating, smoking), or relationship problems (e.g., excessive arguing, poor communication) that interfere with their daily functioning. These difficulties result from the interaction of biological, learning, behavioral, and environmental factors, which influence patterns of thinking and behaving. Negative life events can contribute to the development of self-defeating patterns of thinking and behaving, which some people can have difficulty changing. In my work, which I have been practicing for 42 years, I help people identify these self-defeating patterns and develop strategies for dealing with them. I emphasize the importance of practicing these strategies consistently, with the goal of handling emotions more effectively and behaving in more responsible and healthy ways. I focus on life pattern changes with respect to relationships, depression, anxiety, anger control, impulse control, and stress management.

As a therapist, my commitment is to help my clients explore their needs and goals so they can discover what might be holding them back from a fulfilled life, providing the tools needed to navigate life's challenges. I specialize in CBT (Cognitive behavioral therapy) which offers insight into one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. My goal is to provide a safe and healing therapeutic space. I challenge my clients to unlock their strengths, develop life skills, and achieve desired outcomes while fostering growth and empowerment to help facilitate each person's unique journey.

I am a LMHC virtual therapist who works evenings and weekends till midnight to help you with either short-term solution-focused support and/or deeper psychoanalytical work, including shadow work, to help you understand the patterns that keep repeating in your life- and how to break them for good. Because many adults need support outside traditional hours, I offer evening and weekend sessions with no long-term commitment, so the sessions fit your lifestyle and meet your immediate needs. If you are going through major turning points- considering divorce, managing elder care decisions, coping with estrangement, or trying to understand the dynamics of a difficult partner or parent. I help you make sense of what's happening, strengthen your internal clarity, and take grounding steps forward.
