Hello and Welcome! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida and certified Trauma-Informed Care therapist. I earned my Master of Science in Counseling Psychology from The Palm Beach Atlantic University in 2014. I have a total of 10 years counseling experience and have worked with children, adolescent and adults. I have also worked in a private practice setting helping individuals and families with issues related to depression, anxiety, life changes, coping with grief, addiction, anger management and self-esteem. My counseling style is a combination of warm and empathetic, along with tactful honesty and accountability. I believe in mutual respect and compassion. I encourage my clients to be honest with me and if something is not working, to speak up and tell me. I believe in allowing my clients to take ownership of their therapy and gain skills in advocating for themselves and their loved ones. I also believe in understanding the human condition of imperfection and we all make mistakes. I use a combination of cognitive-behavioral, psycho-education, solution focus, and psycho-dynamic. I understand that sometimes all a person needs is an active ear, but also quick and useful solutions to problematic symptoms or issues. I will create a balance within my counseling style based on your particular needs and preferences. I also enjoy adding an element of humor in my treatment when it is appropriate. It takes a great amount of courage to ask for help. I look forward to helping you through your journey and learning more about yourself. My goal is to help empower you to improve what is working well for you and give you the tools to help change what is not working for you. I look forward to starting this new journey with you!

Everyone needs help from time to time, but the hardest step is asking for help. Now that you’re here, you are well on your way to living the life you want. As a therapist, I am a systemic thinker. I use various therapies and techniques such as Narrative therapy, Solution focused brief therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Hypnotherapy, and Mindfulness techniques to help my clients live better lives. I also encourage my clients to share their faith in therapy as this can often be a huge source of strength in the healing process. I like working collaboratively with my clients to identify the problem(s) causing emotional distress in their life and alternative ways to solve their problems. I enjoy working with teenagers, individuals, couples, families and groups. Some issues I have worked with are anxiety, depression, life - transitions (e.g. school, relocations, physical illnesses), child adjustments, PTSD, and grief.

If you’ve been carrying the weight of overachievement, people-pleasing, or a life that looks “fine” on the outside but feels disconnected inside, you’re not alone + you don’t have to keep white-knuckling your way through. My clients come to me ready for something different: To quiet the constant mental noise. To stop abandoning themselves for everyone else’s comfort. To break patterns that keep them overworked, under-nourished, and emotionally drained. They’re also ready to be gently challenged–to receive the right mix of warmth, accountability, and results-focused therapy that moves them forward, instead of the “just nodding along” style they may have experienced with more passive therapists. In our work together, we combine compassionate, culturally responsive therapy with practical strategies to create lasting change. Together, we create a path back to your truest self that honors your boundaries, your body, and your belonging. You’ll learn to lead your life with intention, take up space without apology, and cultivate the kind of peace that doesn’t disappear the moment life gets hard.

Throughout my life, I have always been drawn to the human condition. Before becoming a therapist, I often found myself taking on roles as a helper, listener, and encourager to those around me. For years, I was unsure what path would lead me to a place where I could help others. While attending college, I began to learn about different organizations advocating for mental health and serving different communities.

Hi! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Florida. I graduated from New Mexico Highlands University in 2021 after several years working with women, children, and families in community-based agencies. My approach is humanistic, trauma-informed, gender-affirming, and grounded in attachment theory. Using a strengths-based approach I use narrative, solution-focused, nature, integrative therapies, mindfulness, meditation, and breathwork. Although we will be meeting virtually, I encourage people to get outside as often as possible! ​

Hi! I'm Femina Patel, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I believe that the best way to empower individuals is through counseling. I specialize in providing counseling services to individuals and families. My goal is to help you uncover your true potential and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. By applying complementary therapy approaches and techniques, we will unearth long-standing behavior patterns or negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling and meaningful life. I have much experience in helping individuals improve their mental health. I have worked within many community mental health agency settings and am familiar with clients that have a range of diagnoses from anxiety/depression to SPMI(Serious and persistent mental illness). I believe in creating a safe and supportive environment for my clients to share their thoughts and feelings so they can discover their strengths and learn the skills necessary to overcome their challenges. With my help, you can achieve the mental and emotional well-being you need to reach your goals and lead a happy and fulfilling life. ***If you are seeking services for a minor a consultation with me is required to move forward with an intake appointment.***

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected from yourself or others, you’re not alone. Many of my clients come to me during times of transition, stress, or uncertainty, unsure of how to move forward but knowing something needs to change. I work with teens and adults who are navigating challenges like anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship stress, and major life changes. Some clients are looking for relief from the daily weight of worry or sadness; others are trying to make sense of who they are and how to live more fully.
