Therapists in Pensacola, FL

Are you having a hard time with life and do not know what to do? If so, I can help you. I have over six successful years of helping children to adults with difficult situations, mental health issues, and general life stress. I believe all past experiences and relationships shape how we feel about ourselves and the world. It is important for us to heal from the inside to the outside with psychological techniques that work.

Hi, I'm Brandy, and I want to thank you for taking the time to invest in you. For making you and/or your family health a priority. You may or may not know exactly what you're looking for, but you're on the right track. Something innate led you to this spot in life, and I'd love for you to go with it. Following your unique path sometimes means sharing the burden and asking for a little help. I'm already proud of you for taking this first step. Whatever your needs are, I'm confident I can help. Let's see.

Do you feel like you're just surviving? Are you struggling to get through day to day activities, laying awake at night worrying about relationships and responsibilities? Or perhaps you struggle with depression? Past traumas? Grief? Life isn't meant to be spent suffering. Help is available to provide relief from emotional pain and suffering. It isn't always easy to ask for help, but with the right help, it can be life changing.

I have been blessed with the heart for serving others. For the past 15 years, I have worked in various roles with children of all ages. While working with children at a youth residential shelter, I discovered the extensive amount of children that were involved in the juvenile justice system in our area, as well as the amount of children needing mental health services. For the last 8 years, I have worked as a Registered Behavior Therapist providing applied behavior analysis (ABA therapy) to children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder.

I have experience working with clients of all ages, ranging from young children to adults. As a person-centered therapist, I am committed to the belief that every person has the ability to live up to their potential and possesses the power to create positive change.

Sometimes life feels like we are barely just going through the motions. It can be overwhelming, unmanageable or just unenjoyable. My goal is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. Whether it is you or your child or teen struggling to adjust, a trauma, a struggling relationship or the hardships of managing day to day life, I am here to help you thrive, not just survive. Therapy is work work but it can also be an energizing and fun experience. I strive to make your experience one that you look forward to and benefit from.

Welcome! I’m so happy that you are making the steps forward. This first step is quite difficult. Since you're here, you should know you are not alone! I find myself drawn toward conversational-based therapy, where we are able to develop a relationship based on foundations of trust and honesty. When I say conversational-based therapy, I mean that I utilize a client-centered approach, while also using cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) to help challenge spots where you might be stuck and help you see a different perspective. At the same time, I am in no way the expert of your life and am here to help you navigate this world.

Are you feeling stressed, anxious, or sad? Are you having relationship issues? If you are, it is time to receive the help you deserve and bring peace of mind into your daily life. I can help you get through this hard time in your life so that you can be happy and healthy. You don't have to do this alone or rely on people who do not understand. I am a welcoming and caring therapist that will respect and empathize with what you are going through, without any judgements.

I have enjoyed providing support in mental health for over 20 years now. We all face moments of distress and experience unplanned circumstances in our lives that we simply are not prepared for. It can be difficult to navigate our way through all of the thoughts that may come up or the different levels of pain we tend to experience. I know that reaching out for help can be challenging. We all have our own healing journeys and I am grateful to be able to help individuals with discovering their own path to healing, growth and change.

Hi, I'm Heather, pronouns she/they! I'm an LCSW and I have 10+ years of experience providing therapy to people who are feeling stuck, unheard, and/or trapped within our system of social norms and unrealistic expectations. I identify as queer and have worked with clients in all stages of recognizing their queerness. I also have experience working with those who have experienced trauma whether due to their sexuality, abusive relationships, upbringing, or otherwise.

With the right tools and support I believe you can overcome just about any challenge and create the life you've always wanted. My approach uses traditional therapeutic methods enhanced with a variety of music, art and animal assisted techniques in a private, relaxing environment. Most importantly, I treat all clients with the utmost respect and care they deserve. I offer after hours and weekend appointments and new clients are always welcome.

Starting your mental health journey can be overwhelming. Sometimes it is a struggle to know where to begin or find the words to describe how you feel. We can tuck trauma away like a book on a bookshelf waiting to be picked up and read. Trauma is not always associated with war. It can be something that can be seen as seemingly small, like growing up in a lonely household, or it can be seen in surviving a car accident. Wherever you are in your life, whether it is struggling to begin a new career, having a major life event, or maybe it is time to address your social anxiety, I would be honored to extend a helping hand.

An interesting client for me is the middle-aged male who has climbed the ladder of success only to find there is nothing there but "stuff". They are extremely depressed realizing that they are unsatisfied with their lives. So they come into therapy to start "The Male Journey". If they become humble and honest, there is a chance that they can transform their lives for the better. Often, this approach is successful with couples who are in need of relationship counseling.

Are you struggling to find your place in the world? Whether it's finding purpose, battling depression or anxiety, creating healthy boundaries, or learning healthier habits, I'm here to be your guide. I'm here to help you find your inner strength to build healthier relationships, overcome past trauma, heal your inner child, and achieve your professional and personal goals. Life transitions, traumatic experiences, and new experiences can be difficult and confusing. My heart for helping others struggling with this and those suffering from poor body image has encouraged me to pour my talents into you.

The ideal client for me is one who enjoys learning, willing to use skills/tools outside of therapy, and be introspective to cause a shift in their life to live differently and accomplish their goals in a collaborative manner. How can I help? This statement is one of the first questions you will be asked during our first session and throughout treatment together.

Hi there, I am Dawn, Do you find yourself struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, or substance use disorder issues? Are you struggling with traumatic memories embedded in childhood or other developmental stages and you are feeling sad and overwhelmed? Are you having relationship struggles and feeling stuck in your situation? Maybe your life has taken an unexpected turn and you are left feeling lost, confused, hurt, or even ashamed. Let’s begin walking this journey towards healing, wellness, and renewal together.

I will start by offering you support, acceptance, and guidance in a safe, cordial setting. My goal is to help you understand, manage, and resolve whatever difficulties you may be facing so that you can begin to maximize your quality of life with the confidence, success, and peace that you deserve. I will assist you in discovering and developing personalized, effective problem-solving strategies that will help you achieve the outcomes you desire.

I focus on two areas - relationships and trauma/PTSD - with couples, individuals, and families. Couples often struggle with a lack of emotional and physical intimacy, they've lost respect & trust for each other, have little companionship, poor communication, argue about finances, sex, children, etc. Trauma/PTSD is often an underlying cause of relationship problems. Many struggle with mental health and substance use as a result. They feel stressed, damaged, alone, numb, can't sleep/concentrate, have racing thoughts, mood swings, anger. They 've tried meds, therapy, substance rehab with little success and feel stuck. Is this you?
