I have 10 years of experience working with those who have experienced trauma, significant life changes and displacement as well as, marginalized individuals, & LGBTQIA+ population. I am also kink, polyamorous, and sex work affirming! I welcome anyone that thinks I would suit their therapeutic needs.

These are extraordinarily difficult times - for you, for me, and for everyone alive today. Anxiety and depression are at all-time highs and much of what's happening on the level of the individual is manifesting from out of intense cultural chaos. Personal problems must now be worked on within the larger framework of global dysfunction. In the midst of all the turbulence and conflict, it has become essential that we find ways of feeling and generating genuine positivity, of being at home with ourselves. I will soon be moving to St Petersburg. Since I now work virtually, it will not change my availability in South Florida.

Hi! I'm Melissa, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in St. Petersburg, Florida. I have been working with people struggling with issues related to trauma, adjustment, difficulty in relationships, substance abuse, neurodivergence, depression, and anxiety since 2011. I am passionate about racial and social justice and experienced in working with LGBTQIA+ people of all ages in navigating the unique experiences of our community.

“I’m fine” is the one of most common lies we hear. It's ok not to be ok. We are often shamed for being broken instead of asked how we fell apart. For sixteen years I suffered from an eating disorder that ultimately inspired my studies to help others who felt anxious, depressed, and insecure. Trauma is a fact of life but it does not have to be a life sentence. Humans are very resilient. Artwork is just like our ever-evolving journey; we are always learning, growing, and surprised by life. My focus is primarily client-centered; however, I use an eclectic approach to meet the needs of my clients.

"It's easy to love the nice things about ourselves but true self-love is embracing the difficult parts that live in all of us." -(Rupi Kaur) Developing a relationship with yourself is one of the hardest journeys you'll walk within your lifetime but it's also the most rewarding. By stepping into our journey of self-love we are also undoing a lot of things that were taught to us by others. We all grow up and learn things from other people, like our friends, family members, and intimate partners as well as society as a whole. These individuals in our life often shape us in different ways, many of which are not our choice.

I am passionate about creating a safe, supportive and empowering environment that promotes healing and helps you actively work on your goals. I believe therapy is individualized, so I use an eclectic approach incorporating a variety of therapeutic modalities to best meet your needs. My experience includes working with adults and children who struggle with depression, anxiety, trauma, adjustment disorders, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, suicidal ideation, self-harm, and other mental health obstacles. I also have experience helping couples strengthen their connection and develop healthy communication.

Hi! I'm a Certified Sex Therapist and a Nationally Certified Counselor. My goal is to help individuals and relationships grow stronger through communication, patience, tolerance, and self-care.

Sometimes, we get the feeling that things could be different, but we don’t know how or where to even start. It feels like all we really need to start moving things in the right direction is for someone to listen to our thoughts, feelings, and ideas without judgement… someone to help us clear away the clutter of daily stress and self-doubt, so we can discover what we truly want out of life and find pathways towards achieving a sense of balance and contentment. Sound familiar? I’d be happy to be that “someone to listen and help”!

I specialize in helping clients with eating disorders, relational issues, teenage mental health, depression, and anxiety. I create a warm, compassionate, and collaborative environment where clients can feel seen and heard, and explore their unique needs and goals.

When working with couples I use Gottman techniques to help manage conflict, recover from hurt & resentments while increasing emotional intimacy.

Hi! I'm so happy you're considering beginning therapy! I strongly believe that each therapist is a little different and its important to choose the best fit for you.

I also have experience working with families, couples, and individuals living with mood disorders, self-harming behavior, anxiety, anger, identity/sexuality development, body image, relationship issues, self-esteem, trauma, personality disorders, and grief.

I am passionate about representation in mental health and pride myself on being a multiculturally competent therapist with a wide array of experiences working with diverse populations, which includes being an LGBTQA+ affirming counselor and working through challenges experienced within the Black and Hispanic communities.
