Hello, I’m Jose and I am a Licensed Mental Health psychotherapist. As a therapist, I believe that a kind and supportive, client-focused approach is fundamental in helping navigate the many challenges that life can bring. I like to provide my clients with a warm, nonjudgmental, safe, and supportive space where we can explore and address the various thoughts, emotions, experiences, etc. that pose a challenge in everyday life. Life can bring about many challenges and at times, seeking professional support can help manage these challenges. I take pride in being able to meet my clients where they are as we explore what therapy has to offer.

There’s no denying that life isn’t always a walk in the park. While I’m sure you can relate to this as an adult, the same goes for kids, teens, and college-age students. Don’t forget, they’re going through this life without a manual, just as you are. But life is also spectacularly beautiful. Unfortunately, the trials faced during any phase of life can often dim that beauty and hold your child back from living the life they deserve. Anxiety, depression, and self-doubt can creep into anyone's life at any age. Mental health challenges can rob them of happiness, self-confidence, and life-fulfillment. I get it. I’ve been in their shoes. As an experienced, understanding, and caring counselor for teens, children, and young adults. I can help support your child, whether they are elementary-school-aged, in the turbulent teenage years, or college-aged. And, because I value being an advocate for kids and an ally for parents, I can support you, too.

I thinks outside the box, and tailor my approach to therapy to meet each client’s unique needs. This is done by drawing from various modalities, to customize the right approach for each individual. This eclectic approach allows me to adapt to the diverse needs of my clients.

Welcome! I'm Leah! It's so nice to meet you. Congratulations on taking the first step towards bettering your mental health because, let's be honest - starting therapy can be empowering, confusing, or scary, all at the same time. I strive to create a safe and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore obstacles with concerns related to anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients develop assertive communication & boundaries with themselves and those around them that can help improve their quality of life. Counseling can foster personal development in whatever way you may be seeking and help build the life you so deeply deserve. If that's what you're looking for, I'm here when you're ready to share.

You lost something important to you and your world has never been the same. Maybe you know exactly what happened. Maybe it happened so long ago, you can't remember the details. Either way, you're haunted by the ghost of a better life. It always seems to be just out of reach. Something needs to change, you can feel it in your bones. But every time you start to move in the right direction, things fall apart. Sometimes you wonder if you're doomed to feel this miserable and broken for the rest of your life. I've been helping people rescue themselves from trauma, addiction, grief, despair and fear since 2015. Helping them break the cycles of frustration and codependency. Find a way to get out of their own way and find their joy again. LASTING POSITIVE LIFE CHANGE is possible. Even for people who think they are "too broken." If you're age 18+ and ready for a new perspective: buckle up, my friend! I can't wait to be a part of your comeback story!

The majority of my time has been spent working with trauma survivors and those with depression and/or anxiety disorders.

Hello! My name is Kathleen Walker. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Pennsylvania. In my thirties, I decided to change careers and began my studies and work in the Mental Health field. During the last ten years of education and practice, my love for this work has grown exponentially. I have a deep respect for people who are attempting to work towards bettering their lives, no matter where they are in that process. So much of my experience involves working with those who are fighting addiction and impulse issues. I have also worked alongside individuals with histories of trauma, grief, depression, anxiety and much more. I believe in using evidence based approaches and techniques that most speak to the individual I am working with – in other words, I believe in meeting people where they are in their lives right now. Whether you are battling addiction or depression or simply wanting support in a life change, I look forward to sharing in your journey toward meeting your goals!

As a clinician with ADHD I have experienced firsthand many of the issues that individuals with ADHD face on a daily basis (poor experience with providers, family conflict regarding diagnosis, learning skills to accommodate my specific flavor of neurodiversity, etc). I think of ADHD as my own neurodiverse super power, and source of frustration. To paraphrase, “the ADHD giveth, and the ADHD taketh away.”

Life is a journey and how we navigate the roadblocks and pitfalls determines how we are able to emotionally function in a healthy and productive manner. I understand that each person has their unique challenges that cannot be avoided, however, I can help to prioritize and put challenges into perspective while helping you function at your best and most productive self. I have a reality-based approach and challenge my clients to confront the thoughts and feelings that have been keeping them from moving forward.

I know actively seeking therapy and finding a therapist can be overwhelming. You’re making a very important first step in your journey of healing and growth. Our mind is a very powerful organ that deserves to be treated as such. I'm determined to bring clarity to certain aspects of your world, and find the beauty in your rebirth. The lotus flower symbolizes constant rebirth, growing from muddy waters and rising above the surface to bloom every day. I started Lotus Living to assist clients in recognizing the areas of their lives that need attention and growth, with a focus on what each new day can bring. I have a diverse background of experience and am well versed in a wide range of areas of clinical interest, including mood disorders, self-esteem/body image concerns, anger management, grief/loss, relationships and life transitions. In addition I am a Certified Yoga Teacher, focusing on the importance of our overall mind/body connection and wellness.

After graduating from the University of Maryland School of Social Work in Baltimore, I relocated to South Florida. After several years practicing law, I realized I wanted to spend the rest of my career helping others from a behavioral health perspective. After two years treating clients in a chemical dependency hospital, followed by a long-term substance use facility, I served as a behavioral health counselor for several years at a local high school.

Thank you for taking time to learn a little about me. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Certified Addictions Professional with over 25 years of counseling experience in clinical, private and educational settings. I practice Client-centered therapy. For those who are unfamiliar with Client-centered therapy it is based on the practice that the CLIENT is best able to decide what to explore and mark as a goal of treatment. I empower all my clients without compromising empathy. Whatever the reason any individual, couple, or family comes to me, I challenge their skillset to solve problems and restore resolve; not simply provide short-term solutions. The first step to achieve this is to build a rapport with essential empathy and unconditional positive regard. I believe in relationships. Seems a little elementary but one's physical, mental, and overall wellness is dependent on relations that we have with each other. No matter how large or small one's family is, and/or social circle we were all meant to establish and grow relationships. No level of true self-reflection would escape this fact. I witnessed this to be true in all of my clients as with myself. I currently reside Central Florida with my wife, son, and three daughters. As a family we enjoy an active lifestyle supportive of one another and the family dynamic. I welcome the opportunity to work with you, feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

My name is Hayden Wygant and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Gainesville, Florida. I work with adults and specialize in anxiety, stress, ADHD, depression, bipolar, PTSD, gender identity, sexual orientation, and trauma disorders. I believe that while goals are important for us to move forward in life, goals in therapy are individualized based on what is currently causing disruption in your life, and we will work together to build a treatment plan that is effective for you.

I am passionate about helping people develop their inner strength and resiliency whether you are an individual or couple who needs counseling. My experience covers the life span, from young children to adults of any age. I can help with a wide range of needs including trauma, attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD/ADD), anxiety, depression, addiction and recovery, as well as family and life transitions. My expertise in child-parent attachment, relationship therapy, and positive parenting skills can help you support and strengthen the important relationships in your life.

Hello potential client! You are hurting in some way if you are here reading this. Maybe you feel like you are getting more and more stressed out and just one more stressor would be too much for you to handle. Maybe you worry all the time about everything and can't stop. Maybe you are sad all the time and don't enjoy doing things that used to be fun. Maybe you are feeling helpless or hopeless about what to do. Maybe you have been through a traumatic experience or are grieving. Maybe you are thinking the way you have been using substances is causing you problems. You have tried your best to help yourself but nothing has worked the way you hoped it would. You don't know what to do but you do know you can't keep going the way you have been. This is where I come in! I help people who are ready to change for the better! My heart is for helping hurting people and I strive to treat all of my clients with the compassion and respect I believe they deserve. The most important part of positive change in a therapeutic relationship depends on just that - the relationship between the therapist and the client. I also use a variety of resources to help my clients. These include evidence-based types of therapy, worksheets and measurements. I also offer Christian counseling to those who are interested and am also happy to work with people of other spiritual beliefs. I offer free consultation calls so we can both decide if working together would be a good fit for both of us. I look forward to hearing from you if I sound like I would be your kind of therapist!

Hello, I'm Benita. I am a licensed clinical social worker and I have been in private practice for the past 3 years, working with children, adolescents, and adults. I am currently not seeing children as I am currently only providing online therapy via telehealth. I have a friendly nature and I believe that everyone can benefit from therapy. I believe that my personal experiences help me to connect with my clients. I have experience with marriage, divorce, children, trauma, immigration, and multi-cultural issues. I know that life is often hard, especially if you don't have a good support system. I'm here to help you to explore what is getting in the way of you living your best life. I can't wait to meet you!

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 worked in the mental health field for over 24 years. I worked as a school psychologist, instructor, therapist, and mindfulness based educator. The results I have seen in working with clients struggling with trauma, addiction, anxiety, and depression have been so fulfilling! It is so exciting to watch people grow in their awareness, gaining insight into issues that they may have doubted would ever occur, healing old emotional wounds.

Hello! Congrats on starting your therapy journey. I look forward to our sessions together. I am Hilary & I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist in Florida.

Hello! My name is Dan, and I am a licensed mental health counselor. I am passionate about my profession and enjoy helping my clients achieve their individual goals. It is exciting to see a client go from where they were to where they want to be in their lives. I love to help those who are struggling in their personal or work relationships learn how to better communicate their needs and improve the quality of those relationships! This is all achieved by tailoring my sessions to the needs of each person I work with. One of the most powerful effects I have found in therapy is providing a safe space where you are heard, understood, and accepted. We all have stress and struggles at times and there is great healing in exploring and touching those feelings. Let's work together towards your goals!

I have extensive experience with individual therapy, working for substance use treatment centers, and working at various psychiatric hospitals. I have worked in roles including Behavioral Health Tech, Case Management, Primary Therapist, and Clinical Supervisor. I have worked with age groups ranging from young children to geriatrics. I firmly believe that in order to help someone, you have to understand them. In order to understand someone, you require personal life experience to truly understand where they are coming from. I am very passionate about what I do. People have asked me previously if I enjoy what I do. I inform them that in my perspective, this is what I "designed" to be. There is no "taking off the therapy hat" for me - this is simply who I am and my purpose. You will learn very quickly how dedicated I am to serving people. I am well-versed in both DSM-IV and DSM-5 (the manuals used to diagnose someone). I have dedicated approximately 30 years of my life to this. Many clients throughout the years told me in their words that I am the "best therapist" they ever had. I encourage you to hire me and judge for yourself. I was entered into two international honor societies (top 15% of students in the field across the span of 8 countries with a flawless 4.0 GPA). Please note: I am a licensed mental health counselor. If you are seeking medication management, you will need to book an appointment with a psychiatrist.

I’d be honored to join you in your journey towards a deeper self awareness and overall well-being.

Hello, I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the state of Florida as well as a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in the state of Pennsylvania. I received my Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology from Chatham University in 2011. I have been practicing as a counselor for 13 years. I help clients identify, develop, and implement positive coping skills that target specific areas of need within their daily lives. I also help the client to establish a positive and safe environment in which they feel comfortable discussing their concerns and experiences.

I am experienced in working with addictions, veterans, LGBTQ, couples, and adolescents in diverse populations. I specialize in life changes, relationship issues, women's issues, self esteem issues, and substance abuse. I also specialize in working with individuals and their families struggling with addiction, as this is a family disease. Recently I worked with clients with anxiety, mental health challenges, addictions, depression, trauma, and veterans with addictions and PTSD. I served for 10 years in the United States Marine Corps and specialize in working with active and reserve members, veterans, and their families of the armed forces. If you are a veteran or active duty member having trouble reintegrating with your family, or struggling with substance abuse look no further! Help is here!

Hi, I would like to start with a personal quote I came up with working in addiction treatment for many years. "Fate is for people who fail to take action. Destiny is for people who refuse to accept their failures as fate." Me Simply put, I would be honored and privileged to be a part of your healing journey. I consider myself to be a therapist who is qualified both because of education and utilization of evidence based treatments; and the experiential learning and continued growth of my own life path. I would love to meet you exactly where you are on your current journey and help empower you to move forward. "Unity consciousness is a state of enlightenment where we pierce the mask of illusion which creates separation and fragmentation. Behind the appearance of separation is one unified field of wholeness. Here the seer and the scenery are one." Deepak Chopra

Hello, I am Amber Regal, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Tampa, Florida, providing telehealth services statewide. I specialize in supporting adults who are dealing with ADHD, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and stress. My approach includes comprehensive education on ADHD symptoms and challenges, all within a safe and supportive environment aimed at enhancing your well-being and happiness. Utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help you understand the connections between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, empowering you to make positive changes in your life.

If you recently lost a loved one through death or a traumatic breakup, you are likely in the grieving process. You may be overwhelmed by waves of emotion or feel like the rug has been pulled from beneath your feet and you have not yet found solid ground. Traumatic loss abruptly changes everything. Your world will never be the same as it was, but you can find a new way forward. I specialize in helping courageous people process deep emotions and get through grief while finding purpose in life. Healing from loss takes time and deep emotional work. Over the past 8 years as a Hospice social worker and Bereavement therapist, I’ve witnessed healing from grief complicated by conflicted relationships, medical trauma and underlying mental health challenges. Often, we get stuck in circular thoughts that produce feelings of guilt or regret as we replay scenes wishing we could go back in time. Together we can work assess places where you may be stuck and unlock compassion and growth. If you are looking for a counselor who can provide you support, education, resources and unconditional positive regard, please reach out to me. You do not have to go through this alone.

If you are looking for a male therapist who understands depression, anxiety, grief and loss, divorce, or PTSD i am the therapist for you. I have 6 years of experience in the community and 14 years in the military with mental health issues. My dream client is 12 years and older who is looking for a professional and holistic experience to address needs you have in your personal and professional life.

Life is not easy. We have all been through at least one event that affected us in a way where it follows us and finds ways to get our attention. For a lot of us this may be depression and anxiety. Lack of a sense of identity. Trying to survive in a world where we are told to live and think a certain way. But at the end of the day, we are all different; built with our own unique energetic and genetic blueprint. So how in any way can each of us follow the same path, the same way of living? My specific focus is working with individuals to break down walls. Understand how past events might be affecting them today in their relationship dynamics, their career, why they make the choices they make. Setting a path to find themselves and be the best versions of themselves. This might involve tapping into their creativity and not being afraid to dream. I highly encourage using one's imagination. A lot of those whom struggle with depression and anxiety have nervous systems that are in constant survival and are not even aware of that. I work with clients on finding modalities to help them break out of survival mode and feel safe in their daily lives. My approach is more holistic: mind/body/spirit. My preferred practice is spiritually based, but I am happy to work with those whom do not prefer that approach. Ultimately, I'm here to guide those looking for their true selves!

Relationships are important. They can bring us joy, and connection, and opportunities to grow. You talk to friends and loved ones, you spend time with them, and you likely do caring things for them. And, how much time do you spend deepening your relationship with yourself? Do you pay attention to how you talk to yourself, how you spend time with yourself, how you care for your Self? It is my experience both personally and professionally that when we spend time working on our relationship with Self, not only do we become happier, and more peaceful internally- our external relationships with others improve as well. Would you like to work on your relationship with yourself? Let’s do it!

I look forward to working with you in your journey to a healthier life! Nicole Ernst, LMHC

I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. I want to all individuals to grow and evolve through their struggles with mental health by changing their maladaptive behaviors.

My role involves conducting thorough assessments to understand your needs and developing tailored intervention plans that promote emotional well-being and resilience. I utilize evidence-based therapeutic techniques, such as motivational interviewing, and cognitive-behavioral therapy as well as acceptance and commitment therapy to help you navigate personal struggles, build coping skills, and achieve your goals.

Hello, I am passionate about helping every individual reach their God given ability. I strive to understand each person’s concerns and walk with them through their journey towards better emotional and mental health. I am Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Certified Money Mentor. I am a seminar speaker focusing on depression/anxiety and the family. I have taught psychology in high school and at the university level. As a husband for more than 45 years, a father of seven grown children and several foster children, I combine knowledge, truth and my real-life experiences to give every individual a realistic opportunity to achieve their level best.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor in the states of Texas and Connecticut, as well as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida, I have more than ten years' experience in helping clients with effective, fairly rapid relief from the symptoms they have been experiencing--with many telling me that they feel significantly better after only a few sessions. Before going into private practice, I worked in a variety of clinical settings, including community/public mental health, managed care, and a psychiatric hospital. Although I work with a wide range of client concerns, I work especially often with clients identifying as LGBTQ and with couples. I have over ten years' experience in treating depression, anxiety, panic attacks, substance use and addiction, and in helping clients to improve their coping skills to better manage stress when it occurs in their lives. Past clients have often described me as compassionate but also as "blunt" and "no bullsh*t" (their words--not mine), helping them to achieve results often much more quickly than other therapists they have previously had.

I am a practicing clinical social worker with 29 years of experience and have practiced in Maryland; currently new to Florida. I utilize a collaborative approach to self determination and self improvement with adults and families. I have extensive experience in Bipolar Disorders, Traumatic Brain Injuries and Trauma. I worked as a Social Worker with older Adults for 10 plus years and am comfortable with providing resources and mental health support to that population.
