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.

Are you feeling OVERWHELMED or STRESSED? Thinking, “I don’t know how much more of this I can take!” Perhaps you may feel hopeless from symptoms of depression; over-the-edge and worried from symptoms of anxiety; inattentive, fidgety, or hyper-focused from symptoms of ADHD; quick-to-click from anger; a salad bowl of feelings from grief; substance use that led to a relationship or legal troubles; sorting through 50+ reasons as to why you should stay or leave an abusive relationship; or a person, place or situation has triggered a trauma memory. I get it. I understand that either of these experiences listed is a lot to manage while trying to work, relate to your spouse or partner, parent, or care for ailing parents, and the tasks can go on and on. I already think you are pretty awesome to seek assistance. So, let’s partner and get to work. I am a Master’s level, Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a National Certified Counselor in Florida. My experience has included working with adults in a private practice setting since September 2015.

I'm Jay Varela, a Licensed Professional Counselor specializing in TEAM-CBT — a structured, evidence-based method developed by Dr. David Burns at Stanford. I hold Level 3 Advanced certification from the Feeling Good Institute and train regularly with the Beck Institute. Most therapy is open-ended. Mine isn't. I track your symptoms with the Burns Brief Mood Survey before and after every session, so you always know whether therapy is working — and so do I. The data tells us when to keep going, when to change course, and when you're done. Most clients see significant improvement in 4-6 sessions. OCD typically takes 8-12. I treat anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, and relationship problems.

Are you feeling stressed about a job, a relationship, not having a social life, or like you're functioning at a low level? Are you experiencing mood swings, in relapse mode, or struggling with post traumatic stress? Acknowledging the situation was the first step, that is self-awareness. Now making the decision to seek guidance because you haven't healed or changed on your own, is the second step. You've made progress already. I specialize in helping you decide what you need, what you want, and finding out how to make the changes that will open doors for the new you. We walk part of your path together; I may be your guide but you are the driver. I take a holistic, solution-focused approach, focused on what you need in your life right now.

My decision to become a therapist was deeply influenced by my own experiences navigating difficult periods in life and struggling to find the right support that I needed, and someone that I genuinely connected with. I understand how vulnerable, overwhelming, or uncertain it can feel to begin the therapy process. At the same time, I’ve seen how powerful therapy can be in creating meaningful change, greater self-understanding, healthier relationships, and long-term personal growth. Life can present many challenges—grief, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, career dissatisfaction, major life transitions, and feelings of disconnection or uncertainty. Whatever brings you to therapy, your experiences are valid, and you do not have to navigate them alone. I strive to create a supportive, compassionate, and judgment-free environment where you feel safe exploring your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I believe that gaining deeper insight into yourself and making intentional choices toward healing and growth can be incredibly empowering. Together, we will work toward helping you build the tools, confidence, and self-awareness needed to create a life that feels authentic, balanced, and fulfilling.

Hi! I'm Dorian. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida - a Jax native with a recent move south to the Space Coast. I received my Masters of Social Work from Florida State University in 2014 focusing on clinical social work. I approach therapy with flexibility and adaptability, focusing on what will best align with you, the client. But, of note, I do so very casually, honestly, conversationally, and course, hilariously (the latter, though subjective, has been confirmed. By me.) . Opening yourself up to therapy can be intimidating! A bit scary! But there's no requirement stating you must dread it. Through my views on mental health, self help, and all kinds of therapy - combined with, well, my personality - it seems that I've become adept at a sort of "stealth therapy." Admittedly self-defined, I'd best explain this by saying that sessions are conversational, instead of a "traditional" therapist-role to client-role back and forth. Just kidding. But, I approach therapy in a way I . I don't speak in riddles, and I won't pretend that I know you better than you know you. I listen, I hear your words -- your input has value and I will never dismiss you or your concerns.

👋 Hi, I’m Don Patton, I’m a licensed mental health therapist specializing in substance use, co-occurring mental health conditions, and the patterns that keep people stuck despite wanting to change. My background is primarily in residential treatment, where I’ve worked closely with individuals in early recovery navigating high risk transitions, emotional instability, and repeated relapse cycles. That experience has shaped how I approach therapy. I’ve seen firsthand that insight alone is not enough. Many of the people I work with are intelligent, self-aware, and capable, but continue to struggle when it comes to applying that awareness in real-life situations. My work is focused on closing that gap. I tend to be direct, structured, and practical in session. I will challenge thinking patterns that are keeping you stuck; while also helping you build tools that are realistic and usable outside of therapy. At the same time, I understand that change requires trust, consistency, and a space where you can be honest without judgment. My goal is not just to help you understand yourself better, it’s to help you create measurable, sustainable change in how you think, respond, and move forward.

Hi, I’m Desiree, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I work with adults who appear capable on the outside but internally struggle with chronic self-doubt, overthinking, and people-pleasing. Many of my clients worry they are “too much” or not good enough, even while managing a lot in their lives. In therapy, we focus on understanding these patterns and where they come from, while building self-trust, stronger boundaries, and more confidence in your decisions. My approach is relational and person-centered, and I see people as whole humans, not diagnoses. Clients often share that they feel comfortable opening up with me quickly and that they feel genuinely heard. I believe that kind of connection is a key part of meaningful change.
