Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I received my Masters from the Florida State University in 2015. I have been practicing for 10 years. I have extensive experience supporting adults and young adults navigating life stressors, anxiety, and transitions. Through a warm and collaborative approach, my focus is on building a strong therapeutic relationship rooted in trust, empathy, and authenticity, creating a safe space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful change.

Hola, Welcome! My name is Monique and I’m a bilingual mental health counselor with over seven years of experience supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and emotions. Over the years, I’ve worked with children, adolescents, adults, caregivers, and professionals navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, depression, life transitions, and burnout. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in negative thinking patterns, or struggling with stress in relationships, work, or major life changes. I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so they can develop practical tools to manage stress, build healthier boundaries, and feel more in control of their lives. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I provide a warm, collaborative space where clients can explore stress, transitions, relationships, and personal growth in a way that feels both practical and empowering. My goal is to help you build clarity, resilience, and confidence as you create a life that feels balanced and aligned with who you are.

Jed is also an author, with books available on Amazon, and is an amateur musician performing as "Jedi Shaman." Jed provides counseling and healing services with a holistic orientation, which refers to addressing the "whole" person and the systems and environments the person is a part of. This approach incorporates cognitive, humanistic, family systems, and psychodynamic therapies as well as transpersonal psychological therapies, hypnosis, energy psychology, expressive therapies, mind-body healing modalities, and vibrational/energetic healing approaches, as well as somatic therapies and addressing biological systems with herbs, essential oils, diet, and nutritional interventions. As a multi-talented, compassionate counselor with extensive knowledge and diverse experience Jed provide comprehensive healing services and collaboration with clients.

I have been in the mental health field since 2007. I was informed when I first started in this field that the average time for people to stay in the field is two years. I am still in the field because helping others is more than a career choice for me, it is my passion in life. Helping others is a personal goal of mine. I look forward to the opportunity. I enjoy seeing people make positive changes in their lives. I have worked with families, couples, children, adolescents and teens, from various cultures and backgrounds. Each case and each client is unique in their way and each client is important. My particular areas of expertise are depression, anxiety, substance abuse, marriage counseling and family counseling. I refer to myself as a "simple-minded therapist" which means we will explore simple ways to address the presenting concerns because many times the solutions are so simple they can be easily overlooked. I am a firm believer that holding a conversation is more productive than expounding on theoretical approaches.

Hey! I'm LeeAnne, a FL-based Therapist. I work with children, adolescents, and women across Florida, both in-person and virtually. My approach is warm, grounded, and practical. I create a space where clients feel comfortable being themselves, while also gaining tools to move forward in meaningful ways. With a background in education and differentiating instruction to meet the needs of students, I find that skill useful in therapy and meeting the diverse needs of clients. Everyone needs, and deserves a unique therapy experience that is professional and clinical, yet deeply human. We work together to create that. With teens and adults, sessions are conversational, reflective, and skill-focused, helping you better understand yourself, shift unhelpful patterns, and feel more steady day to day. I work with teens and women (18+) who feel anxious, stuck, or disconnected from themselves, whether that comes from life experiences, past hurt, or just not knowing what’s next. Many of my clients struggle with self-doubt, people-pleasing, or emotional overwhelm, but they’re also thoughtful, motivated, and ready for change. This population seems to benefit from being connected to a strong sense of self and a strong sense of belonging. We start on day one. With children, I use play-based and sandtray therapy to help them express emotions, build regulation skills, and work through challenges in a way that feels natural and safe. My "teacher and mama " roles enhance the child therapy experience. I support clients navigating anxiety, trauma, ADHD, relationship challenges, life transitions, and identity development. My work is informed by CBT, DBT, and parts-based (IFS-informed) approaches, as well as attachment-focused care. This is a space that’s warm, real, and supportive, where you can be fully yourself, explore your inner world, and build clarity and confidence as you move forward.

Hi, I’m Shayna, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida with 13+ years of experience supporting women, children, and families.

I specialize in working with women who feel overwhelmed by the demands of motherhood, careers, and the pressure to “hold it all together.” In our sessions, I provide a safe space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and work through stress, trauma, or burnout. I also work closely with children and families navigating emotional struggles, behavioral challenges, or communication breakdowns. With a trauma-informed approach, I guide parents in understanding behaviors and building strategies that restore connection and peace at home. My goal is to offer both compassion and practical tools so you and your family can experience meaningful, lasting change.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, my work has been guided by a deep belief in the power of human resilience and the importance of safe, supportive relationships in healing.

Hello, I'm Emily! I'm a licensed marriage and family therapist and I have 10 years experience in the therapy field. I enjoy working with couples, families and individuals coping with a range of challenges, including substance use, anxiety and related disorders and trauma. I have a wide range of experience with various mental health challenges as well as working with those of multiple different backgrouds.

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.

As a former CPA/business owner I bring my unique life’s experiences of serving clients, coaching teams of business professionals and personal growth to the field of counseling.

We will use a holistic approach using our body, mind, and spirit in a safe and compassionate space to grow and get back to peace and balance.

It may seem that it is never going to stop and I will always have these issues but I want you to know there is help out there and I can help you learn what it is that you are going through and teach you skills that help manage the feelings so you have more great days than low days. I will add some humor into our sessions because sometimes our emotions get to be too much and we need to just laugh once in a while. I love mixing different therapies because therapy techniques are not cookie cutter and one technique may work for one person but not another person. We will find what works best for you. Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion and evidence-based techniques so you can overcome the concerns you have that are holding you back. Let's work together.

Hello, I'm Amber, a dedicated and compassionate trauma-informed therapist committed to providing a safe and empathetic space for individuals on their healing journey. With a background in psychology and extensive training, I bring a holistic approach that integrates psychodynamic, person-centered, mind-body approach and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to support clients in their path to recovery. Incorporating a mind-body approach in therapy involves recognizing and addressing the interconnectedness of mental and physical health. This approach may include techniques such as mindfulness, deep breathing, or progressive muscle relaxation to help clients become more aware of how their thoughts and emotions influence their physical sensations. By integrating practices that focus on bodily awareness and self-regulation, therapists can help clients manage stress, reduce anxiety, and improve overall well-being. My psychodynamic orientation allows me to help clients delve into the unconscious aspects of their psyche, understanding how past experiences shape current thoughts and behaviors. Through this exploration, we work together to identify patterns, gain insight into unresolved conflicts, and promote long-term personal growth. In addition to the psychodynamic approach, I integrate person-centered therapy principles, emphasizing the importance of the therapeutic relationship. I believe in the inherent goodness and resilience of individuals and strive to create a space where clients feel heard, valued, and empowered to navigate their unique healing process. Furthermore, my practice incorporates elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), focusing on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors. This approach allows us to develop practical strategies for coping with the impact of trauma, fostering resilience and promoting positive change. With a commitment to ongoing professional development and staying informed about the latest advancements in trauma treatment, I am dedicated to providing evidence-based and client-centered care. I am here to support you on your journey towards healing, personal empowerment, and a more fulfilling life.

Life is full of change, and sometimes those changes can feel overwhelming. I believe there is no single “right way” to handle life’s challenges, which is why I take a person-centered and integrative approach to therapy. My goal is to help you feel supported and more at ease with where you are while working toward where you want to be. Over the past 10 years, I’ve gained experience with a wide range of approaches including expressive arts therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, yoga, nature-based practices, nutrition, and relationship work. I enjoy bringing creativity and flexibility into sessions so that we can find what works best for you. I have a strong background in helping clients with worry, low mood, and spiritual concerns, and I strive to create a space where you can feel comfortable exploring any challenge you’re facing. I earned my Master’s in Social Work from Saint Leo University with a specialization in Advanced Clinical Practice. Before that, I completed a Bachelor of Arts in Interpersonal and Organizational Communication, with minors in Film and Creative Writing. My professional experience spans a variety of settings, including community health centers, private practice, child welfare, schools, nonprofits, and the Department of Veteran Affairs. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, spending time in nature, watching movies, and participating in the arts. I am also licensed in Utah and work with both insurance and cash-pay clients located in the state.

My name is Michael Hutchinson - though I go by Hutch - and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida. I have been working in the field of mental health since 2012, and actively practicing with individuals, couples, and groups since 2018. At the core of my practice is a constructivist approach, treating individuals as experts on themselves as we work to apply the theories of change I endorse to create meaningful/ values-congruent improvements wherever indicated. In my individual work I aim to scaffold skills, concepts, and techniques to ensure that distress is resolved and change is promoted across any number of domains of life. I strive to promote self-determination, and to develop the perspective that all emotions are carriers of information that deserve proactive plans or reassurance through context.

Life is a journey and we all need to reach out for help at times. I have been helping clients for over 20 years move forward through depression, stress, anxiety, grief, adjusting to life transitions and coping with chronic illness. I understand that life gets tough and sometimes we get stuck. I provide honest and genuine counseling with true compassion for my clients.

My approach is based on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as Existential Therapy when appropriate to focus on meaning and purpose in my client's lives. I have worked with clients from all walks of life in my work and in multiple settings in Florida. My experience has provided me with a deep insight and a practical view of the problems people face in their personal lives. It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you. I look forward to working with you!

Hi, I’m Brooke. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with teens, adults, and couples navigating life transitions, relationships, and personal growth. Many of my clients are high-achieving, insightful, and driven, yet at times feel stuck, disconnected, unsure of their next step, or think therapy is not for them. Others see me because their usual coping skills aren’t working anymore, and deep down, you know something has to change. I help you find relief, clarity, and peace, whether therapy is new to you or you've tried before and felt it didn’t help.

Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker and have over 18 years experience working with individuals and families. My therapeutic approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. If you’re looking for a therapist who is genuine, supportive, and focused on helping you feel more grounded and confident in your life, I’d be honored to work with you! I have an array of experience working with diverse cultures, ethnicities, the LGBTQ community, and various socio-economic backgrounds. In the beginning stages of my career, I worked with teenagers in foster care settings, alternative schools, and college students with disabilities. A few years later, I transitioned into working with adults and seniors in hospital settings, home health, hospice care, skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. I am also a certified financial social worker, and by client request, am open to work with my clients on improving their financial health by addressing the emotional, behavioral, and psychological factors behind money management. My primary language is English and my second language is Spanish (Intermediate level). I enjoy speaking Spanglish, traveling, and learning other languages and cultures as well!

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over a decade of experience helping adolescents and adults navigate anxiety, depression, and major life transitions. I have completed my PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision, which allows me to integrate advanced clinical training, research-informed practice, and real-world therapeutic experience. My work is grounded in evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and person-centered counseling. I strive to create a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients can build resilience, gain clarity, and make meaningful, lasting change. ---------------------------------------- 📌 Cash Pay / Self-Pay Therapy Option 📌 Self-pay may be a good fit if you prefer: • More privacy (not billed to insurance) • More flexibility in session focus/frequency • No insurance restrictions (limits/authorizations) 📌 Self-Pay Rates: • Intake/Diagnostic Evaluation: $220 • 53-min session: $185 • 45-min session: $150 • 30-min session: $135 📌 Insurance note: Self-pay may qualify for out-of-network reimbursement depending on your plan (not guaranteed).
