Miccosukee, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Anxiety, depression, and relationship issues are experiences that many of us encounter at various times in our lives. If you are feeling overwhelmed by negative emotions or believe you are struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or any combination of stressors affecting your peace of mind and relationships, we may be a good fit for each other. You are not alone in your struggles, and you deserve to regain the peace of mind and joy that seem to elude you right now. My primary goal is to help you transition from merely feeling good to truly living well.
I draw from a range of educational, career, and life experiences to support individuals holistically. My therapeutic approach combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Process-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with mind-body techniques. As a licensed marriage and family therapist and a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst with over 30 years of experience, I employ compassion, positive psychology, and Mindfulness to help adults and adolescents reach their fullest potential.
Therapy provides a safe space to address mental health struggles and overcome challenges. My methods, particularly ACT, CBT, and Positive Psychology, are effective in treating issues such as addiction, anxiety, depression, anger, and trauma. They also assist individuals and couples facing relationship or parenting difficulties.
Through ACT, you will learn to be more psychologically present, connect with your values, and make space for life’s inevitable pain. You will also discover how to take actionable steps despite emotional discomfort and cultivate an appreciation for each moment in your life.
While my specialty is brief therapy, some situations may require an extended therapeutic relationship, which can be beneficial for adults and parents dealing with complex mental health challenges and navigating difficult child-rearing adjustments at home.

Gulf Stream, FL - Accepting clients in FL
Nice to meet you, I am Jackson.
Can you recall the moments? The moments when you were present and connected to not only yourself but the world around you. Do you remember handling the challenges that arose without becoming exceedingly overwhelmed? Has that capacity ever been in your grasp? Let us not sacrifice our life and the precious precious moments in it to our excessive thoughts, uncontrollable emotions, or a body that doesn't function and serve us.
My process centers upon viewing the individual holistically; mind, body, and spirit and is enacted by not only using traditional talk therapy, which focuses on our life story and patterns of behavior, but by looking at the system in its entirety. Together I will integrate clinical training and this holistic perspective so we can improve your functioning and navigate a solution to your problems.
Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, lack of meaning, or relationship issues, you don't have to walk this journey alone. I have the experience to help you reconnect to yourself so you can enjoy those precious moments and have a more fulfilling life. Let's get those moments back!

Hello! I’m Dr. Robin Akdeniz. I am here to listen and to hear you, to explore your understanding of what is troubling you, or getting in your way, with care, compassion, respect, and without judgment. Whether it is something you experience within yourself or with a partner, at work or school, with friends or with family members, we will work together to co-create ways to help you move forward toward solutions.
With my education and experience as both a licensed clinical social worker and a licensed marriage and family therapist, I work from a systemic and relational lens. Seeing you in this way brings the issue into the relational space between you and your issue, or you and another person, or you and another system (work, school, etc.). Considering each person's uniqueness, the approach to working with you will be designed specifically to meet your needs and desires within your context. Our sessions can be individual or with others, depending on what is most useful in the moment.
My solution-oriented approach incorporates mindfulness and utilizes your unique gifts, strengths, resources, resiliencies, special qualities, and talents to open space for possibilities to emerge so we can co-construct your desired future.
I invite you to contact me for a consultation, for talk therapy, and/or for hypnotherapy.

Do you struggle managing your emotions and would love to learn how to cope with them effectively? Do you struggle with thoughts of self-harm, of not being good enough, hopelessness, or emptiness? Or do you have children/teens that might be going through these things?
If you want a therapist who will not judge you and will help you manage what seems unmanageable, you have found me! I want to help you or your child/teen, start your new healing journey and enjoy life once more! I want you to learn to love yourself and build good relationship and have power to control your emotions and thoughts, while learning to have self-control and conquer the journey ahead!
I have spoken in some conferences and am very involved in establishing awareness of mental health. I have two kids of my own and love helping parents and kids/teens understand each other and form better bonds. I also enjoy holistic medicine and therapy and therefore due practice it when needed.

Welcome. I'm Tanya, and I'm here to help you feel seen, heard, and supported.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or weighed down by past experiences? Do you find yourself repeating patterns you’re ready to break—or struggling to cope with daily stress, trauma, or emotional pain? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to navigate this on your own.
My clients often describe me as warm, compassionate, intuitive, and deeply present. They’ve said things like, "She helps me think in ways I never have before," and "Working with Tanya has been life-changing—it saved my life." What sets my approach apart is the strong, trusting connection I build with my clients. That therapeutic bond is the foundation of the meaningful work we’ll do together.
I take an eclectic, client-centered approach to therapy—drawing from multiple evidence-based methods to tailor your care to your unique needs. These include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, Mindfulness, Somatic Experiencing, and Schema Therapy, among others.
Our work together will focus on:
Gaining insight into patterns and beliefs that no longer serve you
Learning healthy ways to cope with stress, anxiety, or trauma
Building resilience and emotional regulation skills
Processing pain and fostering healing in a safe, nonjudgmental space
Creating sustainable change for a more empowered, fulfilling life
Therapy can be life-changing—and it starts with a conversation. I’d be honored to support you on your path toward healing and growth.

Seeking therapy can feel scary but you're making the right choice. You deserve a safe space to heal and grow.
I specialize in integrative individual and couples therapy for the mind and body. My perspective on therapy starts with the central belief that if you listen to your clients, they will always tell you what's going on. While that may seem very basic, unfortunately, there is very little listening going on these days. When we are listened to and are unconditionally respected and accepted, we instinctively have the right stuff inside of us to figure out our issues. That's how we become empowered . That's how we grow.
Whether you're dealing with overwhelming anxiety, relationship issues or depression. In our sessions together, I'll meet you with compassion, understanding and respect. And I will use the latest evidence-based techniques to support you in your journey
Helping you find that inner strength and resolve is what makes me uniquely qualified to help.
