Hi, I’m Karly Sandoval, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who believes that healing begins when we feel truly seen, supported, and understood. I became a counselor because, when I was younger, I needed someone to help me navigate my own challenges — and now I strive to be that person for others.
I take an eclectic and creative approach to counseling, meaning I draw from different therapeutic methods to meet your unique needs. I enjoy helping people from all walks of life discover their inner strength and work toward meaningful growth. Whether you’re facing anxiety, family stress, or life transitions, my goal is to help you reconnect with your values, find clarity, and move forward with confidence.
I hope we can grow together and create a space that feels both supportive and empowering.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of professional mental health experience. I graduated with my Bachelor's in Psychology in 2008 and my Master's degree in Counselor Education, with a graduate certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, in 2012. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings, which has given me a wide range of clinical experience and allowed me to work with clients from different walks of life and cultural backgrounds. I am radical and revolutionary in thought and praxis and believe in a liberated and equitable world for all people.
Clients who tend to be attracted to me are those who may struggle with a lack of confidence and self-esteem, those who are plagued with "Imposter Syndrome", and those who identify as people-pleasers. I also work with People of Color on healing internalized oppression. My clients are often very bright and self-aware but feel they are missing the tools, accountability and higher-level knowledge to get themselves into action and start making tangible, concrete progress.
Additional areas of focus: Addictions, LGBT, Relationship issues, Family conflicts, Trauma and abuse, Grief, Intimacy-related issues, Depression, Coping with life changes, Life Purpose, Multicultural Concerns, Prejudice and Discrimination, Self-Love, Women's Issues
Therapy does not have to be a years-long, overwhelming or deeply painful process. Many people I have worked with have remarked that they were surprised at how quickly they were able to feel a sense of progress, where they felt stagnant for years or decades prior. While I am very good at what I do, I can only meet you as far and as deep as you are willing to go yourself. Those who are proactive about their healing work and take responsibility tend to make the most progress in the least amount of time.

I'm a trauma informed therapist & my primary treatment modalities include: Attachment Theory, Gottman & EFT. I am currently pursuing certification in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy. I integrate a mind-body-spirit perspective into my practice, recognizing that true healing happens on multiple levels.
During our initial sessions, we will dive deep into the presenting problems to create plan that helps you get your life back. Therapy is a commitment; lasting change takes time & effort.

I approach therapy with the belief that healing and growth are always possible. Change is a natural part of life, and I view counseling as a supportive space where individuals and couples can explore challenges, strengthen resilience, and move toward greater well-being. My work is grounded in compassion, empathy, and respect, creating a safe environment where clients feel seen, heard, and understood.
I was born in Cuba and moved to the United States with my family at a young age. Growing up in Central Florida, I became deeply curious about people, relationships, and the ways we navigate life’s struggles. That early curiosity developed into a calling to support others through their own journeys of healing and growth. Today, I work with both individuals and couples, helping them process trauma, improve communication, manage anxiety, and cultivate stronger, healthier connections.
Fluent in English, Spanish, (and Spanglish), I enjoy providing therapy in whichever language feels most comfortable for my clients. My cultural background and bilingual skills allow me to offer a more inclusive and culturally sensitive counseling experience, something I believe is essential in building trust and fostering healing.
In my practice, I integrate evidence-based approaches such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and the Gottman Method, tailoring treatment to meet each client’s unique needs. I also bring a person-centered philosophy, emphasizing empathy, authenticity, and collaboration as core elements of the therapeutic process.
Outside of my professional life, I value balance and joy. I enjoy barbell strength training, which reminds me of the importance of persistence and self-care. I also love singing with my husband and spending meaningful time with family and friends. These personal joys keep me grounded and inspire the work I do with clients every day.

Are you experiencing frustration, confusion or turmoil in your life? Even to the point where you see no sense of direction while trying to navigate through life? At times, this can be overwhelming for individuals dealing with depression, anxiety, PTSD, including other mental health disorders. Hi! My name is Stephaney and I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida with almost a decade of experience in treating adults and adolescents for various mental health challenges and co-occurring diagnoses.
I was inspired to become a therapist by my unique experience migrating to the United States at the age of 13 and attending middle school which was very challenging for me. Culture shock became my reality and one that would eventually lead me to “Severe anxiety.” Even with a very strong family support system, I felt alone and trapped by my own inner fears and self-defeating thoughts. Constant worry and fear of being bullied by my peers became my everyday experience.
Through all these obstacles, I was able to process my feelings and experiences with my faith in Jesus Christ, supportive family, and a few good friends. To this extent, I have come to recognize the benefits of a strong support system and the need for social and relational connection.
As a mental health counselor, I’m privileged to be a part of that support system for many people. I work with my clients to connect the dots between their thoughts, emotions, and actions, all while providing sound strategies to promote healthier thought processes. I believe that every human being deserves a chance to be heard and understood, and therapy has taught me that as human beings, we are more alike than different. So as your therapist, I’m excited to be a listening ear for you and help guide you toward your goals.

As a Marriage/Family therapist, EMDR and SE trauma specialist, I work with you collaboratively, advocating and supporting you to strengthen your voice and become more assertive in your life. I often work with clients that feel stuck, helping them create a life that is vibrant and alive. Imagine being present without needing to numb the pain when triggers or challenges arise. Let me guide you whether as an individual a couple or family.
In sessions we'll decode emotional patterns, clarify systems that developed and strengthen the family's communication skills to enhance unity by enbracing eachother's differences. Somaticlly trained, I work with spectrum/bipolar/PTSD disorders; increasing awareness of the nervous system/sensory integration/social skills that need boosting for connection.
When advocating for survivors of abuse I often see survivors in the most distant places becoming alive again. I have supported them in rebuilding their identity and trust while relearning to connect in a grounded way. Sessions always incorporate the mind and body.
Hola, Welcome! My name is Monique and I’m a bilingual mental health counselor with over seven years of experience supporting individuals as they navigate life’s challenges and emotions. Over the years, I’ve worked with children, adolescents, adults, caregivers, and professionals navigating anxiety, stress, trauma, grief, depression, life transitions, and burnout. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed, stuck in negative thinking patterns, or struggling with stress in relationships, work, or major life changes. I help clients understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors so they can develop practical tools to manage stress, build healthier boundaries, and feel more in control of their lives. I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. I provide a warm, collaborative space where clients can explore stress, transitions, relationships, and personal growth in a way that feels both practical and empowering. My goal is to help you build clarity, resilience, and confidence as you create a life that feels balanced and aligned with who you are.

Hello and welcome,
Have you wondered where the person you were has gone because of the anxiety and stress of a busy life, relationship issues, grief, stage of life issues, career challenges, etc? It takes self-awareness and courage to identify barriers to the life you want and to make the decision to work toward making those changes. I’m pleased to partner with you on this journey.
I love to help clients put their challenges/concerns in the context of their current life and to help them achieve a vision of what they want their life to become.
I have been in practice for over 10 years in various different settings and with different populations. I will meet you where you are and help you move to where you want to be. You are the expert of you and I am here to guide. There is no ideal client-I encourage honesty and continuous learning. I am currently working towards my doctorate.
Our life path is full of ups and downs with unexpected twists and turns. We learn to develop a way of coping whether it is a positive or negative method to help deal with stressors or adapt to change. However, the majority of the time, we fall back on what we are accustomed to when dealing with a stressful situation or unexpected change; such as becoming confused, frustrated, emotional, withdrawing, angry, combative, or ignoring the situation and hoping the situation will just magically disappear or be resolved. Sometimes we need assistance to develop positive coping skills to deal with an unexpected changes or stressful situations.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have worked with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families to overcome numerous challenges. Besides treating many mental health conditions, I have specialized training in treating anxiety, career, conflict, depression, grief, self-esteem, anger management, behavior issues, stress, trauma, substance abuse, and co-occurring disorder. My approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness, Solution Focus Brief Therapy, and Strength-based therapy. I encourage collaboration from you when designing a treatment plan to ensure it is implemented properly and to increase the potential for a successful outcome.
Your well-being is my priority, and I am looking forward to helping you meet your goal.
