Find a therapist in Florida — covered by insurance

Maybe it started as anxiety, the kind that sits in your chest before you've even opened your eyes in the morning. Or maybe it was something that happened a long time ago that you thought you'd moved past, until you noticed it showing up in your relationships, your drinking, your sleep, your ability to just feel okay on a regular Tuesday. A lot of people who find their way to therapy aren't in crisis. They're just tired of carrying something that's gotten heavier than it used to be, and tired of the ways they've been managing it. If that's where you are, whether you're sorting through anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, or a complicated relationship with alcohol or substances, you're not unusual. And you're not out of options..

I am a licensed mental health counselor in Florida and a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma. I work with clients of all ages who are experiencing stress and anxiety. I have more than 10 years experience working with families and caregivers experiencing the loss and changes that come with aging or a dementia diagnosis. I am trained as a support group leader for the Alzheimer's Association.

If you're a young adult feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, a big life transition, or the complexity of your relationships, I want you to know you don't have to figure it out alone. I'm a licensed mental health counselor with experience working in both private practice and university counseling centers, and I have a genuine passion for supporting people through exactly those in-between, uncertain moments in life.

I work with adults and seniors on anxiety, depression, ADD/ADHD, family dynamics, relationship concerns, and stress. My therapy methods include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and humanistic approaches tools that help you understand your patterns, build flexibility, and move toward a life that actually feels like yours. My style is warm, open-minded, and yes I'll bring some humor to the room, because connection matters and therapy doesn't have to be heavy every minute.

My name is Autumn, I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and my passion is helping others during difficult times. Whether you're going through a challenging life transition or just not as happy as you want to be, I can help you develop the skills to live your best life.

I am licensed in Florida with over 20 years of professional work experience. We all have experiences that have left us feeling unsafe, unloved, lost, confused, helpless, or unwell emotionally. I have experience working with individuals who have suffer with anxiety, trauma responses, mood disorders, parenting, and more. My hope is that I can help everyone build capacity to build good interpersonal skills, personal skills, and self love; thus creating opportunities to manage "yuk" when things do not go as expected or when someone does not feel important.

You are not alone. Life creates our experiences and the lens for which we see things. How we see anything, is how we see everything. Come join me in my office or through teletherapy. We can discover your lens and figure out how to change it's color through skills, perception, and self love. We got this! You got this!

I work well with anyone who seeks therapy and is ready to work on themselves. I have worked with about every population, culture and age group. Issues that I am best suited to treating include a wide variety of disorders, childhood trauma, addictions, domestic violence, parenting/bonding/interpersonal relationships. I certified in EMDR and expressive arts therapy. I like to offer different forms of expression to my clients in the healing arts. I also give plenty of skill building tools and homework so clients can maximize their progress outside of the weekly sessions. I speak Spanish fluently.

Population focus is children, teens, young and middle-aged adults.

Life can often feel like a series of overwhelming transitions, leaving you feeling disconnected or unsure of your next step. I provide a dedicated space for adults (22+) to slow down, reflect, and move forward with renewed clarity.

Whether you are navigating the complexities of trauma, managing a mood disorder, or facing significant life changes, my goal is to help you transform "feeling stuck" into a journey of intentional growth.

How We Will Work Together

My approach is relational, honest, and depth-oriented. Rather than just addressing surface-level symptoms, we will explore the unspoken beliefs and past experiences that quietly shape your daily life. By learning to listen to what your emotions are communicating, you can begin to respond to life’s challenges in ways that promote genuine healing and authentic connection.

Specialized Support for Couples

In addition to individual therapy, I specialize in marriage and pre-marital counseling. I help couples at all stages build resilient foundations, repair emotional disconnections, and foster a deeper sense of intimacy and mutual understanding.

**Please note: While I accept insurance for individual therapy, all couples counseling is private-pay only. Insurance does not cover relationship-focused therapy.

Your Journey Starts Here

You deserve a space where you are fully seen, heard, and empowered. No matter where you are in your journey, I am here to support you in creating meaningful, lasting change.
