Punta Gorda, FL - Accepting clients in FL

The great poet Rumi wrote "out beyond ideas of wrong-doing and right-doing, there is a field. I'll meet you there." That field is a space where calm, love and forgiveness exist. There is no judgement, only acceptance here. And in that soul space you are free to find those fragments of you that are lost, and begin to piece them back together. ​ I'm licensed in both Florida and Michigan. As a licensed clinical therapist and licensed substance abuse counselor, I have experience running very powerful substance abuse and co-occurring groups. Prior to that, I worked as a social worker in Flint, Michigan for many years as a therapist, caseworker and in crisis intervention. My experiences have given me such a rich experience and exposure to the many factors that contribute to our personal mental health and well-being. I've been fortunate to work with people in their homes, in the community, with their families as well as the private practice setting which have given me a much richer experience than just an of an office setting alone.

Boulevard Heights, FL - Accepting clients in FL

I am a licensed mental health counselor with over 20 years of experience working with diverse individuals in the community, private practice, and residential substance abuse treatment. Never in a million years did I ever think providing counseling to individuals, couples, families, and groups, would be the career to captivate my heart….but it is! My specialties are working with clients who may be suffering from traumatic incidents, substance abuse, various forms of anxiety (PTSD, stress disorders), depression, self-esteem, and gender identity. Making the decision to receive any form of mental health counseling can be taxing, however, the results are often positive and rewarding. Learning to face your fears in a healthy and appropriate manner is a sign of growth and maturity. It is not an easy task. You will cry, laugh, and maybe feel a little uncomfortable at times. This is just the therapeutic process working to make you emotionally stronger. *Please note that my preference for treatment sessions are individual and group therapy. However, I do provide a limited number of couples or family therapy sessions for special circumstances.

I’m a licensed psychotherapist with a background in clinical psychology and former experience in the medical field. I provide individual and couples therapy with a focus on insight-oriented, relational work that helps clients build self-awareness, emotional resilience, and meaningful, lasting change. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in a deep respect for each person’s unique story and cultural context. I have had the privilege of working with clients from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating complex trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and relationship challenges. I strive to offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore their inner experiences, gain clarity, and move toward healthier ways of being and relating. In addition to traditional talk therapy, I incorporate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based treatment I’ve been using for the past two years. EMDR has been especially effective in helping clients process PTSD, C-PTSD, generational trauma, and other trauma-related concerns. I also integrate somatic, attachment-based, and mindfulness-informed techniques to support holistic healing and growth. My goal is to meet clients where they are and walk alongside them as they reconnect with their values, inner strengths, and sense of self. I am dedicated to providing culturally responsive care that respects and affirms each person’s identity and lived experience. Whether you're seeking support for personal growth, emotional healing, or navigating life’s challenges, I am here to support you with compassion, clarity, and authenticity.

My expertise lies in creating a safe, supportive space that allows for open exploration of emotions, relationships, and personal goals. I am dedicated to guiding clients toward healthier, more fulfilling lives by fostering insight, self-compassion, and empowerment. By tailoring my approach to each individual, I ensure that therapy is a collaborative journey of growth and positive change. Inbox I help high performers manage anxiety and avoid burnout. Together, we can identify what's not working, and what needs to be done, and get you back to balance. We'll use a whole self approach, addressing the needs of your mind, body and spirit. I also integrate mindfulness, yoga and art to help you develop a stronger relationship with yourself. Whether you're dealing with overwhelm, relationship issues or cycles of anxiety and depression, I'm here to help. 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 hangups and habits holding you back. Let's work together!

My name is Susana Mejia Vargas. I am a fully bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and my main focus is to help clients with unresolved trauma. Depending on how you are affected, trauma can cause difficulties in your daily life, such as hopelessness, anxiety, depression, sleep disorders, constant irritability, and stress. I help my clients better understand the challenging aspects of traumatic events that are affecting their emotional and mental health. I will make clinical judgments about how to proceed in certain situations, but you are an expert on yourself, even if you don't feel that way.
