I an seasoned, compassionate, active, and direct therapist with 20+ years of experience. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches tailored to your unique story to help you reach your personal and professional potential. My approach, although collaborative and client-centered, tends to be direct and relies heavily on CBT methods as well as other strategies. I believe that connection is key and that the therapeutic relationship is one of the most important aspects of successful treatment. I believe relationships and connections are key factors that guide us mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. Getting to know you as an individual and developing a sound working relationship with mutual dignity and respect are key values that motivate me in my therapy practice. My goal as your therapist is to help you work toward living a happier, more fulfilling life. My sessions can be very structured (usually with CBT, assignments, readings, and homework) or I can simply lend an empathetic ear. Each session and client are unique and I tailor my approach as needed.

I've been blessed to have wonderful professional positions throughout my career (see roderickhaferphd.com). Most recently I was Vice-Chair of the Psychiatry Department at the University of Wisconsin.

Hello, first let me say how proud of yourself you should be to start your healing journey, it takes strength and bravery. Second let me say " I am so excited to meet and work with you." I'm a Licensed mental health counselor (LMH) based in MA . I received my Master's from the Cambridge University in MA and have been practicing for 17 years. I work to support clients in their healing journey with such areas and struggles as depression, anxiety, PTSD, addiction, mood disorders, domestic violence and family conflicts (individual work) I feel some of my greatest strengths are being able to meet clients where they are at and providing them with the tools and support they need to work towards their goals and healing, using modalities that fit the client needs I use a Holistic approach, strength-based meeting with clients where they are at, and respecting each client as a unique person

I bring something to individual and couples therapy that is rare today and not from a text book, that is lived experience. In drawing from different evidence based schools of thought in combination with my lived experiences we will employ such modalities of therapy such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. Adversity and struggle are situations that are common. The goal to avoid both would be ideal but that is not reality. Peace and calmness in the mist of adversity and struggle is a possible reality and what we will strive to help you achieve.

I am a dedicated therapist with a compassionate approach, drawing on my personal experience as a mother and wife of children facing serious health challenges. I specialize in telehealth therapy, offering expert care for a variety of mental health conditions.

I draw from these modalities flexibly, always prioritizing the therapeutic relationship and what will be most helpful for you, in my integrative approach to therapy.

I work best with clients who want a therapist who is direct and actively engaged in the process. I believe therapy should feel like a partnership, not a place you're talked at or judged. I feel strongly about the alliance feeling comfortable and natural. I'll always meet you where you're at and help you challenge patterns that may no longer be serving you.

My goal is to help clients navigate life’s challenges, foster personal growth, and build meaningful, fulfilling lives. I am committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and nonjudgmental therapeutic environment where all individuals feel welcomed and respected. I value cultural humility and strive to ensure that each client’s unique cultural background is not only acknowledged but thoughtfully integrated into our work together.

Art Therapy is to heal with art. A picture is worth a thousand words. In my 30 years experience as an Art Therapist iI have witnessed people heal with their art expressions.

It's about the process not the product. It is creative and fun.

You are here hoping to find that therapist who stands out to you because you want to find someone who can help you. The search can be overwhelming for some. Most of the profiles of therapists are going to say similar things. Most of which should be standard like brakes on a car. I cannot promise I'm the right one for you. Here is what I can tell you about my approach. I believe in being practical which means I will not use a lot of psycho-babble or fancy strategies. I have a tendency to be blunt. My wife says I'm the "bluntest politest man" she has ever met. I'm going to be real with you. I love couples/marriage counseling, and that is my main focus. However, about half of my clients have always been individuals. Some people just need a place to vent. Others need help solving a problem, and most people need a little of both. I know therapy might be a little intimidating or even scary to some. Try to think of it as a massage for your brain. It's a place where you can say whatever you want guilt-free.

Hello, my name is Luiza and I am the owner/therapist of FIT MIND counseling services. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in FL & MA and a Licensed Professional Counselor in DC, GA & VA. I am from Brazil, and I speak Portuguese as well :) FIT MIND counseling services enjoys empowering clients finding a more meaningful way to live their lives and assisting them learning about the importance of self-love. Helping clients to focus on themselves and on their self-care is a precious thing. When they learn to embrace and unconditionally love for being themselves, they become stronger in the face of negativity and more able to hold onto positive thoughts when faced with challenges. Mental illness is as real as any physical illness. We talk normally about cancer and diabetes, although the same should apply to mental illness. Emotional and mental health are just as important as the physical health of a human being. The emotional trauma that a brain endures in various of the human life cycle can be damaging and in the long run, just as detrimental as a psychical illness. People donate their organs, but they cannot donate their brains. Some people live with human-made hearts, but there is no such thing as human-made brains. I believe that our brain is the most important organ in our human body, so why don’t we start taking good care of it? Therapy is not only for people with mental illness. Therapy is for everyone. We all have faced or currently face some hardships in life. Talking to a therapist can help you deeply in improving your mental health, decrease your stress and live with more joy and intention!
