I specialize in trauma, mood disorders, and the patterns that keep you stuck, and I'm here to help you understand yourself in a way that actually changes things.

I am an implant to Florida from the Midwest, with over 15 years of experience; holding additional training in trauma-informed therapies. Life can be difficult and there are many times that experiences can cause us more difficulty to adjust or cope with things that we need support from someone that can serve as a neutral party to help to identify the issues and determine how best to address them. I have worked in a number of treatment environments: residential, outpatient, substance abuse, and collegiate mental health. As your therapist I am the ultimate collaborator. I partner with you to help you to meet the goals that you desire to live the life that you envision.

Hi, I'm Jess! My background over the years is primarily in grief, anxiety, life transitions, and emergency psychiatry. I have been able to assist clients in some of the darkest times of their lives and it's an honor to sit in this space with you.

Together, we will focus on being rooted in the present to develop the tools you need to make it to the other side. Life transitions come with so many ranges of emotions and what we can do is unpack your emotions, learn how to manage them, and set goals for the future you want.

I believe that seeking therapy is an act of courage and self-love. Choosing to care for yourself in this way is a meaningful step, even when it feels challenging. In our work together, we’ll explore how your past experiences, relationships, cultural background, and life patterns influence how you feel and show up in the world. I also pay attention to how your body, emotions, and the social and gendered aspects of your life play a role, helping you connect mind and body while gaining insight into what drives your patterns. I work with clients from diverse backgrounds, including those navigating questions of identity, belonging, or cultural transitions, as well as those processing trauma, life changes, or difficult emotions. My goal is to create a safe, compassionate space where you feel seen, heard, and understood, no matter your story. Together, we’ll explore what’s happening beneath the surface while also developing practical tools to manage stress, regulate emotions, and strengthen relationships. Therapy can help you uncover recurring patterns, build resilience, and cultivate a deeper, more compassionate connection with yourself and others. I see therapy as a collaborative process. You bring your experience, and I bring guidance, skills, and support. The work we do together is about understanding yourself more fully, finding ways to navigate life’s challenges with confidence, and creating lasting change that feels authentic and meaningful to you.

Hello, I am Shaqueena. Are you tired of being tired? Do you feel that no one understands your situation or that no one can relate? Are you unsure if therapy is right for you? If you are here, then that means that you are ready and motivated to make some changes in your life. Seeking help can sometimes be tough, which is why I believe that we all experience things in our life that goes beyond our ability to cope and when that happens we need a little more assistance. As a licensed professional counselor, my ultimate goal is to first normalize seeking assistance by decreasing the stigma on mental health. In doing so, my goal is to assist individuals in their healing process, to empower individuals to become the best version of themselves and to help individuals to see that life is completely what you make it. My preference for treatment is to utilize a trauma-informed approach in addition to CBT, EMDR and Choice/Reality Therapy.

I use an integrative, trauma-informed approach that combines CBT, DBT, ACT, REBT, person-centered therapy, and EMDR to help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, emotional overwhelm, and life transitions. I believe therapy should be both supportive and transformative, a space where you can feel safe enough to be honest, challenged enough to grow, and empowered enough to create lasting change. My goal is to help clients better understand themselves, build healthier coping patterns, strengthen emotional wellness, and move from surviving to living more intentionally and authentically.

Hi there! I'm a therapist who specializes in helping people overcome people-pleasing tendencies and trauma. You might be tired of constantly putting the needs of others before your own, feeling like you're never enough, or struggling to set healthy boundaries. It can be overwhelming to navigate these challenges on your own, but together, we can work towards building your self-esteem, creating space for your own needs, and developing new ways of communicating with others. If you've experienced trauma, it can be difficult to trust others and feel safe in your everyday life. You might be struggling with anxiety, depression, or other symptoms that make it hard to move forward. I want you to know that healing is possible, and you don't have to go through this alone. Using evidence-based therapies like Brainspotting and Internal Family Systems (IFS), I can help you process your experiences, reduce distressing symptoms, and move towards a more fulfilling life.

Hi, I'm Ashley, a Licensed Professional Counselor and Reiki II practitioner. I believe that somewhere underneath the anxiety, the self-doubt, and the patterns that keep repeating, there is a version of you that already knows the way. My job isn't to fix you. It's to create a space steady enough that you can actually hear yourself. Together we get curious about the thoughts that won't quiet down, the emotions that feel bigger than the moment, the behaviors that keep showing up even when you don't want them to, and what all of it is actually trying to tell you. I utilize a holistic approach, bringing tools into our work that help you understand what's happening in your mind and body when you're overwhelmed, so you can actually do something about it instead of just surviving it. But more than any method or modality, I show up as a real person walking alongside you, trusting that you are the expert on your own life.
