Therapists in Tallahassee, FL

At times, it can feel like we are putting in our all but are still overwhelmed. Whether it's grieving the loss of a loved one, coping with relationship changes or traumatic events, feeling stuck in our past or worrying about our future, or any other of the many curveballs life throws at us, therapy can be a helpful space to work through these challenges. I offer both individual and group therapy to collaborate with clients to reach their goals. I also provide psychological assessments for students and adults to better understand the impact of their mental health on their academic, relational, and occupational life.

I focus on helping adolescents, college students, adults, couples, and families discover ways to cope with the problems they face. I believe we all have answers to our problems within us, but may need help in seeing a way through difficult times. I bring a range of approaches to our work together and tailor the treatment to your needs. I strive to provide a safe space for you to explore and be yourself. I have particular experience with treating anxiety, transition stressors, relationships, and depression, while promoting self-discovery. My goal is to help you lead a fulfilling life.

Therapy allows an opportunity for growth and reconnection to the core of who we are. I hold the belief that people have the capacity to improve the course of their lives. My role as a therapist is to help guide you in discovering your strengths, build stress resilience, improve relationships, heal from trauma and gain insight for change. My expertise includes working with adults in addressing anxiety, depression, life transitions, trauma and relationship concerns, including recovery from narcissistic abuse.

“Often when we are breaking down, we are really breaking open. It is my hope to hold space with you during your time of transformation and healing.” My approach is to create a safe, trusting, judgment-free therapeutic environment to bring your struggle into the therapy room real-time. I will work with you to create and shape an outcome that aligns with your life’s values, goals and direction. I hold an interest in existential, humanistic, person-centered, “here and now”, experiential and mindfulness-based therapy styles.

The days tick on and you feel paralyzed by the enormity of the decisions coming your way. Your loved one has just been given a diagnosis and you're struggling to understand what that even means to your life. Trying to face the fact that this time next year they may not be here feels impossible. This illness has stolen pieces of you, stolen your loved one's identity. You feel lost in the sea of doctors, medical jargon, and referrals, struggling to keep your head above water. With no clear sense of direction, you turn inward and feel alone. The tears, fears, and questions can only be hidden for so long. So, what now?

I have a great deal of experience with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and addiction. I enjoy working with clients who are motivated to change, learn, and develop new skills. Honesty helps the process tremendously! I enjoy working with them because I have so many tips and techniques that I have seen work, and that gives me a great deal of motivation and drive to help them!

Growth is not linear and change can be difficult, especially if we are trying to do it on our own. Feeling disconnected from ourselves and others can be the first step of change to living a life that feels true to you. On the journey of self-discovery, we often need another perspective in order to change our reality; therapy can be a way to get there. Therapy is a tool that can be used to help you find your most authentic self and live life unapologetically. In finding what works for you we will develop new skills that will contribute to your ideal life. I would be happy to assist you in creating a life that is authentic to you.

Are you a Black woman healing from the trauma of sexual abuse, sexual assault, or growing up in a dysfunctional family? Are you the change maker, setting out to resolve generational curses by breaking from "the way we've always done things"? Historically Black women have been the rock of the family, sometimes with devastating results. Chronic stress and unresolved trauma can cause physical symptoms like high blood pressure and emotional struggles with depression, self-worth, and boundaries. Add to that the cultural expectation that we should stay in a child's place and not air our dirty laundry, and it's a heavy burden to bear.

Sick of feeling stuck? Let's move you forward. Are you smart, educated, and goal-oriented, yet find yourself suffering? Perhaps you are wondering how to move past that same damn argument with your partner. Perhaps you find that when everything is going well, you self-sabotage. Perhaps you're having some trouble forgiving yourself for past mistakes or parenting missteps. It's time to live life the way YOU want, purge the shame of not being "enough", and start having more joy in your life. My style is relaxed and non-traditional. Expect to laugh and look forward to therapy, and also make progress that you can be proud of!

I work best with those suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, overwhelm, trauma, or emotional flooding. Many of my clients report that our work helped them shift from survival mode to a sense of thriving. My ideal client aims to engage in an active partnership to build self-awareness and take action to make a change. I will give you feedback and challenge you, which is not everyone’s cup of tea! I suggest homework; your progress is based on your willingness to practice. The ideal client for my strengths is someone who wants to learn and shift by discovering tangible skills and techniques they can use in their own lives.

Therapeutic spaces are one of the most unique environments we can engage with for support that is individual to us. Your personhood deserves to be nurtured in a place where you can be unequivocally yourself. Whether you are experiencing significant stressors, going through life transitions, or wanting a secure place to self-explore, therapy could be your starting point.

Whether your needs involve coping with depression, anxiety, or trauma; childhood issues, work-related issues, relationship issues, or family issues; or you or someone you are/have been involved with is/has struggled with a substance use issue, I am willing to help you discover your personal goals, strategize a plan for meeting those goals, and to guide you along the path you are cutting. I enjoy working with individuals who have a strong desire to identify complex areas or situations in their own lives that they would like to re-evaluate.

Licensed and Accepting FL & NC telehealth clients. Hi friends! My name is Sherree Turcott and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW). Do you get triggered and feel like you over-react to your children, partners, and family members? Do you feel like it is impossible to start and complete basic daily tasks? Are you tired of feeling like the people in your life take advantage of you? My path to becoming a therapist started in the classroom. After a few years of being an elementary school teacher, I recognized that I focused more on my students’ socioemotional education and their overall well-being than I did on academics.

I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families. I believe that every person has the capacity to thrive, and I am committed to providing a safe and supportive space where individuals and relationships can flourish. Together, we will collaborate to gain insights, develop coping strategies, and foster a deeper understanding of yourself. Whether you are facing anxiety, depression, trauma, or navigating life transitions, I am here to support you in achieving your goals and empowering you to live a fulfilling and meaningful life.

My goal is to create a safe space for clients to explore their emotions, develop coping skills, and ultimately find peace and resilience amidst their struggles. Together, we'll work towards reclaiming control over your life and building a brighter, more fulfilling future.

Problems do not occur in a vacuum. Individual problems often have symptoms that affect the entire family system. I work with children, adolescents, couples, and families experiencing whatever problems of the moment. During our work together, we will explore the impact of the issue and join together to generate solutions that not only benefit the people in the room, but may also positively influence future generations.

Life comes with challenges and changes that can be complex to navigate. My passion is empowering clients to navigate these challenges through warm, empathetic care in a safe environment. By working alongside clients and viewing them holistically, I believe it is possible to help them enact real change and personal growth.

I believe in a strength based approach which means every client has a natural strength that can be used to improve upon any situation. My goal is to help clients identify and utilize the skills they already possess. Therapy approaches I often use to achieve this goal are EMDR, CBT, motivational interviewing, etc. I enjoy working with clients who are seeking to process through trauma. We have all experienced it at least once in our lives, and I love working with clients seeking to process and overcome these experiences. I practice a judgement free environment and enjoy learning as much from my clients as they learn from me.
