I’m a licensed mental health counselor, trauma therapist, author, and advocate with more than 30 years of experience supporting individuals and families through healing, recovery, and life transitions. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, domestic violence, childhood abuse, relationship challenges, and emotional healing. I have extensive experience working with incarcerated individuals, juvenile offenders, and justice-involved populations, helping clients navigate trauma, behavioral challenges, emotional regulation, and personal growth. My approach is compassionate, culturally sensitive, and grounded in helping clients feel safe, seen, and empowered. I integrate evidence-based practices with mindfulness, emotional awareness, and practical coping strategies to help clients rebuild confidence, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful change. My goal is to help you move from survival to healing—one step at a time.
My name is Emma and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the State of Florida as well as a graduate of Rollins College Master's of Arts in Mental Health Counseling program. I have been in the mental health field for nearly six years. Prior to graduate school, I started as a Crisis Counselor with 2-1-1, answering crisis and suicide calls and providing those in need with information and referrals to community resources. Since then, I have worked with adults and children in an inpatient hospital setting, college students in a college counseling clinic, and now teens, adults, and couples in a private practice setting.
Hi and welcome! We all struggle with the human condition from time to time. As your therapist, I’m here to meet you with genuine connection - to truly see and hear you.

I offer a unique blend of motivational coaching and in-depth therapy. Together, we’ll take a holistic look at your unique humanness - your strengths, struggles, values and patterns - while working toward practical, goal-oriented solutions that help you reduce emotional suffering and move forward in your life, relationships, and career.
I am Dr. Jennifer Richie, DNP, a Board-Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC) and Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-C).

My background encompasses child and adolescent psychiatry, adult psychiatry, and addiction medicine.
Do you feel abandoned by those you love? Do you feel overwhelmed by feelings of dread due to past trauma? Are you consumed by shame? Is living for you a never ending feeling of worthlessness? How many times have you felt you don't belong, even within your own family or circle of friends? Once is too much and I can help. Divorce, loneliness doesn't have to be your future. Nor do anger issues, anxiety or depression. You deserve to have self-worth and a positive tomorrow. Feel free to reach out to me. You are not alone.
Let us discover, together, new ways to look at change. My focus and passion is to help you reclaim your joy and peace. Marriages can be saved. Nightmares can stop and negative thoughts don't have to win. Our goal will be to find lasting solutions that work for you in your every day life.
Aurelio received his Graduate Degree in Clinical Social Work from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. He is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker as well as a Qualified Supervisor for the State of Florida, and Internationally Certified Interventionist.
“My counseling style has developed over time to become one that does not spend time dredging up the past or spending time talking about the past session after session. This approach focuses on finding solutions for today and the future and keeps you on your new path while discouraging looking back because you are not going that way”.
Hi, I’m Chris Brace (he/him), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and LGBTQ+ affirming couples therapist based in Las Vegas, NV. I specialize in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) — an evidence-based approach that helps partners break out of painful patterns, heal from disconnection, and reconnect in deeper, more secure ways.
I support couples and individuals navigating conflict, communication struggles, infidelity, emotional distance, premarital questions, and relationship ambivalence. My practice is especially attuned to the needs of queer, neurodiverse, and nontraditional relationships (including CNM and polyamorous partners). I strive to create a warm, inclusive, and judgment-free space where all identities and emotions are welcome.
For couples in crisis or those wanting to deepen their connection quickly, I also offer 2–3 day EFT Couples Intensives — an immersive, premium service outside of insurance designed to accelerate progress in just a weekend. I balance this with making weekly therapy available through Cigna and Aetna (via Headway), so couples can choose between a traditional path and a concentrated, cash-pay option.
I earned my Master of Social Work (MSW) from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), and I have advanced training in EFT. I’m also invited annually as a facilitator for national EFT trainings on LGBTQ+ inclusivity, where I help other clinicians build affirming skills.
If you’re ready to get unstuck and reconnect, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. You can book a free consult or schedule with your Cigna or Aetna insurance via Headway.
Hello, and welcome! I'm a licensed therapist with eight years of experience in the behavioral health field. I became fully licensed in 2021 and have enjoyed helping clients develop insight and change behaviors through their journey with me. I started my professional life as an educator in 2003, but life had a different path and I discovered my passion was to provide psychotherapy to individuals across the lifespan. I treat ages 10+ and assist individuals understand their moods, develop strategies to manage them, or simply provide a safe space and a listening ear.
Hello, I'm Rejith Kumaran, APRN, PMHNP-BC, MSN, a board-certified Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner providing compassionate, evidence-based care for adolescents and adults. I treat ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, OCD, Bipolar disorder, and other psychiatric conditions through personalized medication management and supportive therapy. I prescribe Stimulant/Non-Stimulant medications for appropriately diagnosed ADHD when clinically indicated. My practice focuses on general outpatient psychiatry, and I generally do not provide ongoing management of chronic benzodiazepines, opioid pain medications, methadone, buprenorphine (Suboxone), or other medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid use disorder. My goal is to deliver safe, collaborative, patient-centered care that supports lasting mental wellness.
If you're constantly questioning yourself after a toxic relationship, feeling stuck in anxiety, struggling to trust again, or carrying the weight of emotional abuse, you're not alone. Many of the women I work with are healing from narcissistic abuse, betrayal trauma, domestic violence, relationship wounds, depression, stress, or overwhelming self-doubt. Together, we'll help you reconnect with your voice, rebuild your confidence, establish healthy boundaries, and create a life that feels safe, fulfilling, and truly your own.
Hi, I’m Jeanina. I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor, a people-person at heart and someone who believes deeply in the power of hope, healing, and being truly seen.
As a Latina, I understand the importance of culture, family, identity, and the expectations we can carry while trying to find our own voice. I believe therapy should feel compassionate, approachable, and genuinely human. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel understood, and show up as your whole self—without having to have everything figured out.
I especially enjoy working with women and young adults navigating life transitions, identity, relationships, family expectations, self-worth, burnout, anxiety, and the pressure of becoming who you are while still figuring out who that is. Your 20s and 30s and even 40s can bring so many questions: Who am I? What do I really want? Am I on the right path? Why do I feel like everyone else has it together?
Many of the women and young adults I work with have spent so much time taking care of others, meeting expectations, being strong, or simply surviving that they have lost touch with themselves. Therapy can be a place to reconnect—with your values, your voice, your relationships, your identity, and the life you genuinely want to build.
You don’t have to have all the answers before coming to therapy. Sometimes, you just need a safe place to begin asking the right questions.
I’m here to help you slow down, make sense of what you’re carrying, and move toward a life that feels more like you.
I have been a social worker/therapist for 20+ years. I received my Masters degree at the University of Buffalo, in Upstate New York. I work with clients experiencing depression and anxiety. Together, we explore how thoughts influence feelings and how feelings shape behaviors. When patterns become unhelpful, they can interfere with relationships, work, and overall well-being. I help clients build insight and practical tools to create healthier, more empowering ways of responding to life's challenges.
I am passionate about helping clients grow in personal strength and creating self-confidence that allows you to feel higher levels of peace when navigating the difficulties of daily life as well as when processing previous trauma. I have experience in ABA, CBT, art therapy, certified in DBT, and a variety of other therapies based on need and goals.
