Therapists in Florida

Hi, I'm Desiree Reed. I have my Masters in Counseling and Psychology, I take pride in helping individuals work through their life's obstacles. As a therapist, I provide an open, safe environment to explore difficult emotions and provide guidance to help clients navigate life's challenges. My goal is to help my clients build resilience and foster self-compassion. I'm passionate about providing quality care to my clients and helping them reach their full potential. I specialize in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). My goal is to help my clients develop the skills they need to manage their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors in order to reach their desired outcomes. I'm passionate about empowering individuals to make positive changes in their lives and helping them create sustainable solutions for their problems. My goal is to help people understand their hurdles and how to move forward in a positive and healthy way. I use evidence-based practices to provide a safe and confidential environment for my clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. My goal is to create a space where individuals can be heard, understood, and supported as they work towards becoming the version of themselves that they want to be.

Hello! My name is Dan, and I am a licensed mental health counselor. I am passionate about my profession and enjoy helping my clients achieve their individual goals. It is exciting to see a client go from where they were to where they want to be in their lives! This is all achieved by tailoring my sessions to the needs of each person I work with. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. One of the most powerful effects I have found in therapy is providing a safe space where you are heard, understood, and accepted. We all have stress and struggle at times and there is great healing in exploring and touching those feelings. Let's work together towards your goals!

You are here hoping to find that therapist who stands out to you because you want to find someone who can help you. The search can be overwhelming for some. Most of the profiles of therapists are going to say similar things. Most of which should be standard like brakes on a car. I cannot promise I'm the right one for you. Here is what I can tell you about my approach. I believe in being practical which means I will not use a lot of psycho-babble or fancy strategies. I have a tendency to be blunt. My wife says I'm the "bluntest politest man" she has ever met. I'm going to be real with you. I love couples/marriage counseling, and that is my main focus. However, about half of my clients have always been individuals. Some people just need a place to vent. Others need help solving a problem, and most people need a little of both. I know therapy might be a little intimidating or even scary to some. Try to think of it as a massage for your brain. It's a place where you can say whatever you want guilt-free.

I am first of all a very empathic human been. In a therapeutic session you will find an empathic listener, who is on your side, to help you make changes, process situations, externalize feelings and see situations with a different lense. With twenty years of experience working with clients I have been exposed to many different life situations, and will do my best to help you in the transition.
