I am a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida. I bring a wealth of experience and knowledge to my work. I employ a collaborative approach that is infused with compassion and, when appropriate, a sprinkling of humor. I believe that therapy is a journey, and I am committed to walking alongside my clients as they work toward their goals. I do have a 15-minute expectation for session arrival. Once 15 minutes has passed and a client has not showed up or messaged me, the appointment is canceled and a no-show fee is charged.

I've worked with active duty, veterans, aging adults, kids, adolescents, couples and individuals over the course of my career.

I wont BS you, therapy is hard. I've been on your side of the screen trying to find a decent therapist before so I personally know how challenging it can be. Therapy isn’t about perfect answers or forced positivity. It’s about real conversations, unfiltered honesty, and having a space where you can say what’s actually on your mind (yes, including curse words). My goal is to help you navigate the chaos, to be real with you, and to remind you that you don’t have to do it alone. Life is weird, therapy doesn’t have to be. Let’s figure it out together. As a certified trauma specialist, I have years of experience processing and minimizing symptoms from PTSD. My specialties also include anxiety, depression, OCD, behavioral issues, relationship issues, spiritual abuse, domestic violence, sexual abuse, post-partum depression, emotional abuse, and panic attacks.

Hi there! I am dual licensed in Florida as a Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Marriage & Family Therapist (LMFT). I received my Masters from Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida and have been practicing for 12 years. I tend to work with older adolescents and adults in living more authentic lives and being the best version of themselves. I am compassionate, but also honest and direct. I guarantee I will challenge you, but you will feel and know that it comes from a place of genuine care and a desire for you to live your best, most fulfilled, and healthiest life.

Hello, my name is Justine Nyman. I want to thank you for taking the time to seek support. It is not easy to reach out or even realize that counseling/support is needed. So, I welcome you to therapy. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida. I have 10 years' experience and continue to grow in my therapeutic approaches and my knowledge as a therapist. I create an environment where the client feels comfortable and open to emotional vulnerability. In order to express ourselves and be open with our struggles we need to feel comfortable in the therapeutic process. I use acceptance with my clients and don't judge them based on their history or their current choices. I want the client to feel that they can start their journey, set goals, use coping skills, and improve their overall well-being. Counseling is a process and takes time. Some individuals require more time than others and that is okay. I believe in moving with the pace of the client, through setting goals and practicing tools is essential for change. In order to feel change, we need to make changes in our everyday lives. If we don't initiate changes, it becomes a struggle to move forward. "Practice makes permanent" I look forward to working with you on your journey of growth, mastery, and success.

Hi, I'm David Hobbs. I’ve been practicing as a licensed psychologist for more than 25 years, primarily utilizing cognitive behavioral therapy as an effective tool to treat anxiety and depression. As these can be emotionally debilitating conditions, addressing these issues can improve one’s sense of well-being, and thus their lives in general, dramatically. For the past 5 years, I have incorporated spirituality into my treatment regimen, thus addressing that aspect of one's personality in relation to their overall psychological well-being.
