Hi, I’m Alley, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor dedicated to supporting women through the many emotional seasons of their lives. My work is rooted in the belief that women deserve spaces where their experiences are honored, their identities are supported, and their inner worlds are understood with compassion. I began my career working alongside mothers navigating addiction—a role that deeply shaped my trauma-informed, relational approach. Over time, I expanded my training to better support women throughout the reproductive and early parenting years. I am a Circle of Security Facilitator and am currently completing my Infant Mental Health Endorsement, allowing me to support women and families at the intersection of emotional well-being, attachment, and early relational health. Today, I work with women navigating major life transitions, identity shifts, reproductive and perinatal challenges, relationship stress, and the everyday weight of being needed in so many ways. Whether you're adjusting to motherhood, struggling with infertility, moving through burnout, facing a loss, exploring who you are, or longing for more stability and connection, I offer a warm, grounded space to slow down and make sense of whatever you’re facing.

I'm Marisol, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 20 years of experience specializing in helping women navigate life transitions, heal attachment wounds, and rediscover their authentic selves. I graduated in 2007 with a master's degree in mental health and have dedicated my career to understanding how our early experiences shape who we become, and more importantly, how we can transform those patterns. My journey began working extensively with children impacted by trauma, utilizing EMDR and trauma-informed modalities. Through this work, I witnessed firsthand how attachment wounds form and the incredible resilience of the human spirit. What I discovered was profound: when mothers heal themselves and show up authentically, entire families transform. This realization shifted my practice focus entirely. Now I work exclusively with adult women, particularly mothers navigating midlife, who are ready to do the deeper work while also seeking practical solutions. My therapeutic style blends clinical expertise with a coaching mindset. I'm trained in trauma treatment and deeply understand childhood wounds, but I work in a strength-based, real, practical way that focuses on empowerment and growth, not pathology.

I remain objective and non-judgmental, while still developing close working relationships that are productive and challenging. I specialize in improving thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and outcomes. I enjoy working in music production, and share music therapy exercises often. I look forward to delving into any interests that you are looking to pursue. It is very important to discover your talents and develop confidence in articulating and communicating thoughts and feelings. These can be great coping skills, recreation, or even a potential career.

Hi! I am Luis Gonzales, a licensed mental health counselor and certified rehabilitation counselor working out of the Tampa area. Having gone through a tragic life altering experience at a young age, I know what it’s like to feel lost and hopeless about the future. When I was 21 I suffered a spinal cord injury that left me paralyzed and wheelchair-bound. Through my journey of recovery I learned firsthand, just how much our thoughts and emotions can become our biggest obstacles in life.

I work with adults who feel stuck, overwhelmed, burned out, or unsure of their next step in life. Many of my clients are navigating stress, ADHD, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, or major transitions — whether that’s entering adulthood, changing careers, coping with loss, or trying to rediscover purpose. My approach is genuine, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Therapy with me feels like a real conversation — professional, ethical, and structured, but also warm, human, and sometimes even lighthearted when it helps people feel more at ease. I believe meaningful change happens when you feel safe, understood, and supported, not judged or rushed. I blend evidence-based tools like CBT with practical problem-solving strategies that fit your real life, not just a textbook. Together, we focus on building insight, confidence, and skills you can actually use outside of session — so therapy becomes something you rely on less over time, not more. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected from yourself, or ready to make a change but unsure where to start, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’d be honored to support you as you take the next step forward.

I fell in love with psychological studies in high school. Becoming a therapist has fulfilled my curiosity about human existence and my quest for happiness. I used therapy to overcome my own struggle with fears, shame, and self-doubt, which has affirmed my faith in the helping profession. I have learned through training and personal experiences that all human beings have the same basic quests in life and that we all deserve a chance to develop our unique potential, contribute uniquely to the tapestry of life, and be happy. I have also learned that human growth can only lead to spiritual development and discovery. My growth in understanding the common threads of humanity helps me treat my clients with respect and compassion. I have had extensive training in CBT, EMDR, mindfulness, trauma-focused, and insight-oriented therapies. My inclination is to use an integrated approach that meets clients where they are and helps propel them forward to achieve their objectives.

Welcome! I'm Emmanuel Nzuzu. I want to thank you sincerely for reaching out to me. Congratulations for taking this crucial 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, structured, and welcoming environment that allows clients to explore challenges and obstacles with concerns related to alcohol and drug addiction, stress, anxiety, depression, and/or self-care. I focus on helping clients to regain control by taking back their power from alcohol and drugs. I facilitate client transformation by assisting them to learn how to be guided by a vision of the future and not memories of the past. My clients often find it beneficial to 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.

I initally began my career in technical problem-solving in the fields of Environmental Science and Engineering, but my deeper calling was always in helping people navigate their own challenges. While working as an engineer, I served my church community as a lay counselor and intercessor, which sparked a growing passion for more meaningful, people-centered work. That calling led me to pursue a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, and I haven’t looked back since. Today, I serve as both a private practice clinician and a workplace mental health consultant and trainer. This work allows me to blend my analytical skills with a deep commitment to emotional wellbeing—and I truly feel I’ve found my purpose.

Frequently asked questions

Why filter by Florida rather than a city like Tampa?

When looking for online therapy, you can see anyone that is credentialed in Florida. We want you to find the best fit, therefore, Grow Therapy shows available therapists across Florida from Miami to Jacksonville! If you’d rather see someone in-person, you can change the filter from virtual and find a therapist near you in Florida.

Will my therapist take insurance?

When booking you’ll be asked to verify with your Member ID. However, if you don’t have any of the insurances available you can select cash. Our therapists will have their cost of appointment on their profile. Individual session costs will vary.

How does the Specialty Filter work? Can I find a therapist that focuses on a specific issue?

The specialty filter is optional. You don’t need to check any boxes to see a provider. However, fit is very important when selecting an online therapist. If you have knowledge or experience to recognize what specialties you may need.

Why use Gender, Age, and Identities filters?

Finding a provider with a similar life experience can be beneficial because it can be easier to establish rapport and potentially be understood quicker and clearer.

What happens during the first therapy session?

Your first therapy session is for you and your therapist to meet each other and to ask any questions that you have about the counseling process. This is where you can expect your therapist to do the same as they will ask questions to gain insight into your specific situation. In this first session the therapist is doing their part to gather as much information so they can better assess if they are able to meet your therapeutic needs. Depending upon your provider's specialty, you may also discuss the methods the therapist will use. For additional information on therapy methods, please visit the Grow Therapy Help Center.Some people feel nervous before their first appointment, and that is totally normal! Coming prepared with a list of questions for your therapist may help. Remember, you're taking a brave step by seeking therapy, and it is okay to be nervous as you try something new.
