I am a licensed mental health counselor providing therapy to adolescents, adults, and families in a supportive and collaborative environment. My practice is grounded in a person-centered approach, emphasizing empathy, unconditional positive regard, and a strong therapeutic relationship where clients feel heard, respected, and accepted without judgment. I also integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thought patterns, build on their strengths, and develop practical strategies for change. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem concerns. In sessions, I support clients in exploring their thoughts and emotions, gaining insight into patterns that may be contributing to distress, and identifying realistic and meaningful goals. Using CBT, we focus on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, while also practicing coping skills, cognitive reframing, and emotional regulation strategies. Through a Solution-Focused lens, I help clients recognize their existing strengths, resilience, and past successes to guide goal setting and create forward movement. This approach encourages clients to envision their preferred future and take small, achievable steps toward positive change. By combining these approaches, I tailor treatment to meet each client’s unique needs and experiences. My goal is to empower clients to increase self-awareness, improve emotional well-being, strengthen relationships, and build confidence in managing life’s challenges. I believe therapy is a collaborative process where clients are active participants in their growth. I strive to provide a safe and supportive space where individuals can develop insight, build effective coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

I look forward to meeting and working with you. I am a licensed mental health counselor with a certification as a clinical trauma professional. I moved from Pennsylvania in 2019 as I could not handle winter anymore and needed to be somewhere warm! I have two Master of Arts degrees from Kutztown University - one in Counseling Psychology (obtained in 1995) and the other in School Counseling (obtained in 2004). I started in mental health therapy in 1995, moved into substance abuse counseling for several years, then to school counseling while I raised my son for 18 yrs, and now have returned to mental health/substance use counseling as that is my passion. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband doing outdoor activities - especially riding the Harley and going out on the water. I love to exercise and walk daily and enjoy knitting in my spare time. Everyone in life (including therapists at times) need someone to talk to in order to help resolve problems, manage stress, process trauma or enhance coping skills. I believe in looking at what you want to accomplish as the goal of therapy and then working on skills to achieve that goal. I utilize trauma stabilization and reprocessing strategies, cognitive-behavioral techniques as well as person-centered and solution focused techniques. I believe everyone has the tools inside them to achieve their goals; it is just about unlocking them and utilizing them. I have worked extensively with trauma survivors in addition to clients dealing with depression, anxiety, eating and substance use disorders. I have worked with the LGTBQ+ community. I enjoy working with all clients but prefer working with those ages 8 and older. I offer individual, couples, and family counseling.

I'm a Solution-Focused Brief Therapy clinician who has been practicing for over 20 years. SFBT focuses on identifying and building your existing strengths rather than exploring the origins of your problem. In other words, we will focus on solutions versus dwelling on problems. My specialties include navigating toxic relationships, depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, substance abuse, life transitions, career confusion, and grief. I also understand the unique emotional challenges that can come with caring for chronically ill or aging humans and pets. Making medical decisions, coping with compassion fatigue related to caregiver stress, anticipatory grief, and facing eventual loss. All this can be overwhelming. You don't have to navigate those experiences alone. *PLEASE NOTE: All NEW client intake paperwork is required to be completed AND submitted no later than 24 hours prior to our appointment or we will need to reschedule.

Hi, I’m Philip Crouse, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. My clinical background is rooted in high-acuity environments, meaning I am highly experienced in helping individuals navigate complex crises, severe anxiety, deep depression, and the heavy weight of addiction and trauma. If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or buried by recent life events, my goal is to help you find air to breathe right now. I don't believe in just sitting and nodding while you vent; therapy should be active. We will work collaboratively using practical, evidence-based tools—like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused techniques—to dismantle unhelpful behavioral loops and build immediate, actionable coping strategies. I operate from a strictly trauma-informed framework. This means I understand that safety and nervous system stabilization are the prerequisites for any real healing, and your autonomy and pace are always my top priorities. Whether you are navigating intense grief, the pressure of a major life transition, or the ongoing impact of past trauma, I provide a grounded, non-judgmental space where you are seen as a resilient survivor. Together, we can shift from just talking about the problem to actively building the functional, manageable life you deserve.

I am a bilingual (English and Spanish) Licensed Therapist who works with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, life transitions, stress, trauma, and self-esteem concerns. My approach to therapy is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client's unique needs. I primarily utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, and a systemic perspective, recognizing that our experiences are shaped by our relationships, family systems, and environment. In Narrative Therapy, I believe that the problem is the problem, not the person. Together, we work to separate individuals from the challenges they face, helping them develop more empowering and meaningful life stories. I also integrate mindfulness-based interventions to help clients increase self-awareness, manage difficult emotions, and remain grounded during times of stress. My goal is to meet clients where they are, providing a safe, nonjudgmental space where they feel heard, respected, and supported throughout their therapeutic journey. Soy una Terapeuta , bilingüe que trabaja con adultos que enfrentan ansiedad, depresión, dificultades en las relaciones, transiciones de vida, estrés, trauma y problemas de autoestima. Mi enfoque terapéutico es colaborativo, compasivo y adaptado a las necesidades únicas de cada persona. Principalmente utilizo la Terapia Cognitivo-Conductual, la Terapia Narrativa y un enfoque sistémico, entendiendo que nuestras experiencias están influenciadas por nuestras relaciones, la dinámica familiar y el contexto en el que vivimos. Desde la Terapia Narrativa, creo que el problema es el problema; la persona no es el problema. Juntos exploramos cómo los desafíos han influido en su vida y trabajamos para construir una historia más saludable, resiliente y alineada con sus valores. También incorporo técnicas de mindfulness (atención plena) para ayudar a mis clientes a desarrollar mayor conciencia del momento presente, regular sus emociones y afrontar el estrés de una manera más efectiva.

Hello! I’m Kendra, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping adults navigate life's challenges with compassion, authenticity, and ease. I specialize in working with individuals who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or burnt out—those who are tired of pretending to be "fine" when they are actually exhausted from trying to hold everything together. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a Master’s in Social Work from Florida State University, and I have over six years of experience supporting diverse individuals across Florida. Reaching out is a significant step and a true act of strength. If you are ready to invest in your mental health and find your way back to balance, I would be honored to partner with you. Please reach out today to schedule an initial consultation—you do not have to navigate this journey alone. Whether you are navigating a major life transition, struggling with career burnout, or stuck in a loop of overthinking and self-doubt, I am here to help you slow down, process your experiences, and regain your footing. You do not have to have everything figured out to deserve support; you simply need a safe space to take off the pressure.

My name is James Smith. I am a graduate of Florida State University College of Social Work. I lived in FL nearly all of my life, until in 2024 I had a chance to live closer to family in TN. My primary practice has been in the medical field, especially working with seniors with dementia and hospice. I currently work with dialysis patients. I am currently licensed in FL and TN and open for new patients. I believe that most individuals needing therapy already have the answers that they seek and need a trusted individual to listen to their concerns. When problems arise, I help you to navigate through your ideas, provide feedback and help you find success. I enjoy spending time with my family, training for and completing triathlons and working for better handwriting tools for lefties.

I'm also a grief expert and can help you navigate the emotional, physical and life changes that come with loss.

I can help you recognize patterns of thinking or behavior and offer potential solutions to help you live life to its fullest potential. I help clients tap into their internal strengths and capabilities to build confidence and overcome challenges. You are recognized as the expert of your own life, and together we formulate the best course of treatment to achieve your goals. I help clients build happiness, improve self-confidence, find meaning and purpose in their life, identify core values, look for pattens of thinking and learn new skills to manage challenges. You will likely reach most or all of your goals within a short period of time in therapy with me.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 4 years of experience supporting people through crisis, major life transitions, and the process of healing from trauma. My background includes working closely with veterans, adolescents, and trauma-impacted individuals, which has given me a deep appreciation for the unique challenges and strengths that each person brings to therapy. I use a strengths-based and client-centered approach, focusing on resilience and building on what is already working well in a client’s life. In our sessions, my goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to make meaningful changes. I believe therapy is a collaborative journey, and I strive to walk alongside clients as they discover new coping strategies, heal from past experiences, and move toward personal growth and well-being.
