Like the name of my practice, I believe individuals are also capable of blooming throughout even the most difficult of circumstances. As a therapist that treats anxiety, ocd, depression, and trauma it is my goal to help individuals have a better understanding of themselves, process past pain, and feel confident in moving through life. I aim to be that safe guide that will assist you with reaching the life you want. Ultimately, you are the boss and have a say in what changes you want to make and your goals. With the help of my expertise, I will assist you with finding meaning in your life, facing painful situations, and living a life you value. Throughout this process I encourage transparency and open communication, as this is your life not mine.
YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT SPOT.
I understand, I have been there too, watching myself go through life while feeling like a shell of a person. After experiencing several traumatic events, the loss of both my parents in my early 20’s, and experiencing homelessness I was left reeling with a variety of painful emotions. With the support of some wonderful individuals, I was able to grab control of my life and continue to live boldly.
Therapy with me isn't about becoming someone "different.” There is no such thing as perfection, only progress. I believe you deserve to be heard, validated, and supported. Your story is yours and just as important as anyone else’s story.

Dealing with health and physical challenges? All of the chaos and uncertainty in the world today has caused increased stress and anxiety for many folks, which may make your own personal struggles seem insurmountable. You are not alone.

My mission is to be a servant to others by empowering and helping you on your path to emotional wellness. I have helped children, teens and adults with anxiety, depression, mental health disorders, relationship conflict, and parenting concerns; assisted others to heal from acute abuse, childhood and adult traumas. I am also experienced with persons who have migrated to the US from other countries and the barriers that are encountered with those changes. Whether it be acute crises', life surprises, circumstantial stressors or complex traumas; let me teach you new skills or sharpen the ones you already use to either decrease, eliminate or change negative behaviors or unwanted symptoms.
I have worked among many different populations and settings (non-profit organizations, state and government facilities, public education, and now private practice) and have learned to navigate through different challenges and with those experiences I have become a person who is compassionate to unique needs and desires.

Starting therapy can provoke anxiety as you are unsure of what to expect but we all need someone to listen. I provide a safe and supportive space for clients while offering warmth, empathy, understanding and acceptance in a non-judgmental therapeutic environment.
I feel that effective treatment is centered around the client's strengths which in turn helps the client to overcome challenges such as unhealthy habits, faulty thinking, anxiety, substance use or other behavioral difficulties. I want to help you see that there is hope, you are important and have an exceptional purpose in your life.
It would be an honor to hear from you so that we can work together to make you feel more empowered while facing your challenges and accomplishing your goals.

Hello, I am Anne Marie Bryant, I work with individuals, couples & children/teens to help them with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, parenting, trauma, grief/loss, & stress. My background started as a social worker where I worked with children in the foster care system which led me to discover how important mental health is especially for children who felt broken due to the trauma and the many adverse childhood experiences they had and how counseling helped them to feel whole. I then pursued my Master's degree in Counseling to help individuals learn how to cope with their adversities and have the skills to continue their life’s journey.

Hi there, I am Dr. Smith.
Do you need a therapist who encourages, motivates and instills hope that empowers you to take control of your struggles so you can live out the best version of yourself? Life, Love and relationships often come with unique challenges that can make us feel like we are being pulled in many directions. These challenges are combined with work and financial stress that can often leave us exhausted and dissatisfied with life.
I help individuals, couples and families identify stressors so that together we can begin the healing process and improve your quality of life and relationships. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, substance abuse or relationship issues I am here to help. I use an approach centered around compassion, empathy, and the belief that all of us have worth and dignity. The evidence-based techniques used will give you hope while working toward the change that led you to therapy.

I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor who specializes in depression, anxiety, grief and trauma. I have a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and have extensive training in risk assessment, family therapy, sexual abuse and complex trauma. I like assessing the needs of my clients and then use a variety of proven therapy methods to help them resolve emotional and behavioral difficulties.
After working in school and non-profit settings for several years, I saw a lot of people struggling with mental health issues that were not properly addressed. I felt called to provide children, adolescents, couples and adults with a safe space to explore and resolve these concerns. I look forward to helping you and your family.

Are you tired of the struggle? The struggle to even get up and get through the day? Or the struggle to keep a lid on your emotions out of fear? Are you tired of worry? Tired of being haunted by memories? Is anxiety and/or depression presenting you with more struggles? Are you struggling to find a path in life? Do you feel as if you're not living up to your full potential in your career or relationships?
I help people realize that the struggle itself is sometimes worse than what we are struggling against; and that the struggle can then become the main problem. The struggle can hide real solutions to those problems. The struggle becomes more important. The "struggle is real."
With an understanding of how we can get into these habits of struggle, and with evidence-based mindfulness practices to help us respond rather than react (the struggle), you absolutely can lead a rich and full life. I'll help you find this path. Working together we can get through (or around), the struggle and move forward on a valued path - rather than one that emphasizes the need to avoid and control problems that life inevitably presents us. All of us.

It's okay to not be okay, and I am so proud of you for putting in the research to find a therapist who is a good fit for you. A little bit about myself, I was raised in Lexington, KY and after living in Western Kentucky for 11 years, I have returned home to my roots. I graduated from Western Kentucky University with a Masters in Social Work and have worked as a psychotherapist in community mental health, private practice, and assisted care facilities. I would describe myself as quirky, direct, and compassionate. I am a mom of two boys who are my absolute world and the reason for transitioning to online therapy.
I absolutely love my job and love working with people to improve their mental health and overall quality of life. You deserve to be heard, believed and encouraged. Giving therapy a shot can feel intimidating but also life-changing and if you're still reading this I hope that you will consider booking an appointment with yours truly :)

I am licensed in Kentucky and Florida with 9 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping individuals with coping with high stress careers/front line workers/emergency professionals, addictions, PTSD/ trauma and abuse, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & LGBTQ related issues. Life has many challenges and no one heals the same way. If you are experiencing trauma let me reassure you- you will NEVER be expected to go over the details of the events that have affected you. We will work on your stressors and challenges in a way that will not leave you feel retraumatized or heavier.
By meeting my customers where they are at I create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It can be difficult to talk about sensitive issues, but in a safe environment we are allowed to unload the pain and open up to healing. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Hi, my name is Juan.
Taking ownership of your stuff requires a level of honesty you can’t even imagine. There is nothing easy about realizing YOU are the one that’s been holding yourself back this whole time. I am here to help you change that!

If you’re ready for a positive change in your life; we will work together using positive mindfulness techniques, CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), and trauma-based techniques to name a few. Give me a call, email, or text to get started on your new, healthier path.
