Therapists in Port Saint Lucie, FL

Hello! I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in the State of Florida with 5+ years of professional experience supporting and empowering adults struggling with a wide array of mental health challenges such as anxiety, low self-esteem, stress, trauma & abuse, addiction, depression, meaninglessness, grief & loss, family conflict, anger management, identity issues, and relationship problems. I maintain an open and safe space for you to explore your innermost thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.

As a professional, I use strength-based and trauma focused approaches. I believe in empowering my clients in developing coping skills and self-awareness to increase self-esteem to create a positive change. As a therapist, my clients have described me as pleasant, down to earth, and easy to talk to. I combine my experience, education, and originality, using a realistic approach to therapy.

The first step to beginning therapy is to want to make a change. You won't be successful without that initial desire. It could be the tiniest desire, but if it's there, I can work with that! You may not know what your goals are. You may not know what your needs are. You just know that you want to make a change, and I'll be there to support those efforts!

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who provides psychotherapy to individuals and families. I view therapy as a collaborative journey where developing a safe and trusting relationship is key. Together we explore feelings, thoughts and experiences which lie beneath the surface and have created barriers to happiness and connection in your life. I seek to create a safe space to encourage conversations which help my clients gain self-awareness, reduce negative symptoms, improve coping skills, express their feelings, promote empowerment , change unhealthy patterns, heal early childhood wounds, learn to connect genuinely with others, and improve quality of life.

Healing from trauma is difficult and takes time, seeking help is not easy but it's a brave first step in your journey to a healthier and happier life.

Hello, I am so glad you have found my page! I know it can be a little overwhelming as you scroll through all the counselor profiles searching for that perfect fit. As a licensed Christian counselor I work with many professional leaders in the community who are very successful in one area of their lives, but seem to struggle in other areas. Such as: personal relationships, anxiety management, stress, communication within the family, and trauma. They often feel stuck in negative patterns of interaction and desperately want to find relief. I am here to tell you that there is hope! You don’t have to struggle alone any longer!

Healing begins when you allow yourself to stop suffering. As Helen Keller stated, "Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it". Your journey begins when you identify the emotions causing you to feel your life is out of control. The process of healing starts by recognizing and removing layers of false beliefs and negative thoughts. Understanding where those beliefs and thoughts come from will allow you to gain strength and courage to overcome the challenges and obstacles you face throughout your life. It is then you will experience inner peace with a healing mind.

We seem to be living in very stressful and difficult times, struggling with the COVID pandemic, economic turmoil, rising criminality, and national and global instability. If you are feeling anxious, depressed, worried about the future, dissatisfied with yourself, your relationships, and your work, know that you are not alone. Let me help you view 'each hardship as a pathway to peace' and make the changes you need to make, instead of repeating the past and recreating the same unwelcome reality, over and over. Why is it so difficult to change? The answer is simple but not easy. In order to change, we must let go of our painful past.

With my experience as a practitioner, I tend to experience clients who are struggling with relationships, work stress, social life, family issues, addiction, mood disorders and or a desire for internal work. Which are typically, prior to therapy, approached with an, "I can solve this myself attitude." This tends to come to the point where the issues are overwhelming and the discomfort of unhappiness and repeated patterns are just too much to bear. But you find yourself here, ready to do something different, and are ready for positive changes. Please Reach out and let me help you find peace and happiness again.

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.

I specialize in working with women and girls (kids and teens) because there is nothing more fulfilling than seeing healing take place in a woman or girl’s heart. Whether I am working with a woman crushed by years of trauma, or a seemingly out-of-control teenage girl, or a child suffering from sadness or anxiety, I find such joy in creating sacred space to do meaningful work. I find this work even more rich and effective when I’m able to integrate your spiritual paradigm.

Dear Hurting Person, Perhaps life for you has become so painful or complicated that you do not know what to do for relief. Is your experience of suffering overwhelming? Do your problems appear to have no real solutions? Are the very things that you used to do to cope with life no longer working? Are you feeling despair? Pain expresses itself through many feelings: loneliness, anxiety, grief, inadequacy, guilt, shame, emptiness, fear, obsession, sadness, depression, and even anger or rage. Confusion reigns when you are lost in anguish. Stress often restricts your clarity of thought and inhibits action.
