Grief counselors and therapists in Clearwater, FL

Welcome! I’m Dr. Annakay Rhule, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner dedicated to helping children, adolescents, and adults achieve emotional wellness and balance. My passion lies in creating a safe, supportive space where every patient feels heard, understood, and empowered to thrive.

With a Doctor of Nursing Practice from Palm Beach Atlantic University and years of experience across outpatient, telepsychiatry, and school-based settings, I specialize in caring for children and families navigating challenges such as anxiety, ADHD, mood changes, and behavioral concerns. My approach blends compassionate listening with evidence-based treatment to support long-term growth and resilience.

I am a Clinical Social Worker providing tele-health psychotherapy to adolescents, adults, and seniors across Alabama and Florida. My goal is to provide the evidence-based treatment, education, and encouragement necessary for you to achieve a more purposeful and fulfilling life.

Hello, and thank you for taking the time to learn about my practice. I am Ramon Recio, a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with more than thirty years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families through life’s most difficult chapters. I hold a Master of Arts in Clinical Psychology and completed doctoral coursework in Counselor Education and Supervision. My career has spanned community mental health centers, hospital systems, and private practice in both New York City and the greater Tampa Bay area, including my current work as a Behavioral Health Psychotherapist at BayCare Behavioral Health, St. Joseph’s Hospital.

Over the years I have had the privilege of working with a wide range of clients: adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions; couples and families seeking to repair and strengthen their relationships; individuals in recovery from substance use; veterans; and people from culturally diverse backgrounds, including children with developmental challenges and their families. I am fluent in English and Spanish, and I welcome clients who prefer to be served in either language.

Outside of credentials and titles, what I most want you to know is this: I am warm, energetic, and genuinely curious about the people I work with. I believe each person carries strengths that are often hidden beneath what they came to therapy to address, and a meaningful part of our work together will be uncovering and using those strengths. I also recognize that for many clients, spirituality, faith, or a personal sense of meaning is an important part of their lives. I am respectful of every client’s belief system and integrate that dimension only when, and how, you want it included.

Welcome! I'm Dr. Valarie Chapmon, DSW, LCSW, BCD, a licensed clinical social worker with over 15 years of experience helping individuals navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, and relationship challenges. My background includes serving as a U.S. Navy Medical Service Corps officer and Psychological Health Team Lead, where I have provided behavioral health services to service members, veterans, and their families in both operational and clinical settings. I also have extensive experience working with survivors of trauma, military sexual trauma (MST), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), moral injury, and occupational stress.

I earned my Doctor of Social Work degree from Tulane University and am a Board Certified Diplomate in Clinical Social Work.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by stress, healing from past experiences, struggling with anxiety or depression, or simply looking for support during a difficult season of life, my goal is to provide a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered. Together, we'll identify your strengths, develop practical coping strategies, and work toward meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your personal values and goals.
