Therapists in Pensacola, FL

I am passionate about working with those who feel as if they'll never break free from their past. Those who struggle with and can't seem to escape the same patterns, thoughts, and feelings. Maybe you logically -know- something wasn't your fault, but it still -feels- like it was, or you're tired of not feeling "good enough". I take special care in gently creating a safe space where you can be your authentic self, while honoring your unique journey. I have specialized training and experience working with those impacted by trauma, and guiding them towards healing.

“Awareness is all about restoring your freedom to choose what you want instead of what your past imposes on you.” Deepak Chopra. Choosing a therapist is probably the most important part of your therapy experience as research indicates the client-therapist relationship creates the environment and foundation for change to be possible.

As an EMDR intensive trauma therapist, my focus lies in guiding clients through the healing process from traumatic experiences. I specialize in assisting individuals grappling with PTSD, anxiety, or similar trauma-related difficulties. My commitment is to create a nurturing space where they can delve into their emotions, cultivate coping mechanisms, and ultimately regain a sense of inner peace and wellness.

Helping people feel strong, confident, and calm- this is what I am passionate about. I work primarily with teens and adults. When life gets overwhelming, we can lose sight of who we are, or who we want to be. Each of us is fighting an internal battle, but peace is possible. Together, we can dive into the experiences, patterns, relationships, and beliefs that have shaped who you are today to find the stories of resilience, bravery, and hope. Life isn't perfect- my goal is to help you find balance and feel centered in a world that can sometimes turn us upside down.

Welcome! I am so pleased that you made the decision to begin the process of investing in your mental health! My name is Jamye Manigault and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in the sunny state of Florida. I graduated from Barry University with my Masters in Mental health Counseling and Couples, Marriage and Family Therapy. I have 10 years of experience in areas such as: gender identity, struggles with spirituality, individual, family, marriage and couples counseling, trauma/ abuse, and mood disorders. I have worked with all ages and genders.

Sometimes after a traumatic event or significant life change, we are left feeling powerless, uncertain of who we are or our role in life, and hopeless about how we can move forward. Maybe we have low self-esteem or even have thought about harm or death. At Empowered Living Counseling, I often see clients who have experienced trauma, are searching for their identity, and are working to take back control of their lives. I take a collaborative and non-judgmental approach to support clients in finding meaning and empowerment, safety and healing from their traumatic experiences, and figuring out who they are and what they want in life.

I enjoy connecting with and walking alongside individuals, couples and families to help you heal from pain, develop a new relationship with your mind and body and overall help in the transformation of lives. I value the intersections between physical, mental, emotional, relational and spiritual health. In my practice I incorporate all five areas in the assessment and treatment phases of therapy. I look forward to guiding you on the journey to wellness and healing. I would love to assist you in making changes that suit your journey and help you reclaim a peaceful life. There is health, hope, peace and joy in the midst of chaos.

Life is a journey! Life experiences and the people we come into contact with impact us in both positive and negative ways. I believe that therapy can be beneficial at any point in a person's life journey: from healing trauma to needing to fine-tune performance functioning. I value the Heart-Mind-Body connection and will work with clients from a holistic perspective to establish goals for therapy and provide them with both challenge and support. I am committed to working with a wide variety of individuals ages 13 and up and will provide a safe space for you to feel seen and heard.

Do you want to understand yourself better and learn why certain patterns keep repeating within your life? Are you tired of experiencing setbacks from previous trauma or issues experienced within your childhood? Do you want a clinician that is down to earth and has both lived and professional experience with the ability to offer practical tools that you can use within your daily life? I would love to support you in meeting your therapy goals. Trauma disconnects us from ourselves, our loved ones, and the community. I am culturally sensitive and willing to work with those from diverse backgrounds.

I love helping clients create the life they want & deserve by redefining their stories of pain, loss, & struggle into glorious epics! You should (& I usually hate that word) know I was raised globally & my heart is from Seattle. I tell you this because my experiences shaped me into the person (& therapist) I am-it's part of MY story. I would be honoured to provide guidance, support & empowerment while you begin working on this next part of YOUR story.

Hi, I'm Dr. AnnMarie Whithed. Are you finding it more difficult to manage the challenges the past couple of years has brought? Are you coping with the loss of a job or the illness of a loved one, dealing with a divorce or breakup of an important relationship, or coping with painful past experiences? I can help. I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 17 years experience helping people find their inner strength and overcome challenges. I provide individual psychotherapy for adults age 25 and older, focusing on creating a safe and supportive space to explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at your pace.

Have a feeling there is a disconnect in your life? Experiences such as overwhelm, helplessness, over-thinking things, over-reacting in situations, relationship strain, mentally beating yourself up, or physical symptoms like recurrent headaches, stomachaches, or a rundown immune system are often signs that we are cut off from our highest self, the healthiest version of ourself. Trauma, in its many forms, can do this to us. It can hijack our nervous system so we respond to life in ways that do not support mental or physical wellbeing for us or our relationships. I want to help you heal and take back control of your life.
