I am a licensed mental health practitioner with many years of experience working with professionals, young adults, incarcerated individuals, and those with substance use disorder. My goal is to help you achieve your goals and create new ones for the future.
Do you want to feel more confident, more fulfilled, and more connected with yourself and with others? Do you want to treat yourself better - with more acceptance, compassion, and self-care? And, do you want to feel like you are living more grounded in the present moment? Sometimes, our past hurts and traumas can affect how we see ourselves, other people, and the world around us. They can affect our thoughts, feelings, and actions. And, they can cause us to act in ways that hurt the ones we love and go against our values, morals, and principles. We all want a life of meaning and purpose. I can help you achieve this.
I offer evidence-based treatments and approaches that are tailored to your individual needs and preferences. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist and I am trained in EMDR. I specialize in helping people heal from the effects of childhood trauma. I also specialize in treating chronic pain that is not responding well to medical or physical treatments.
If you are motivated and want to stop just "going through the motions" and start really living your life, I would be honored to work with you. I will work collaboratively, with you, to help you identify and achieve your goals. I have helped many others and would love to help you. Please call or email me now for a free 20 minute consultation to see if we are a good fit.
I graduated from The Ohio State University with my DNP in 2020 focusing on efficient pathways to implement depression screening post-stroke to identify mental health needs. After working a couple years as a nurse practitioner within neurosurgery, I transitioned from Ohio to Florida and pursued my PMHNP certification from Florida State University. Over the past 5 years I have been treating psychiatric needs in LTC around Florida. I am currently working to expand into independent practice and work personally with individuals creating a therapeutic relationship and enhancing their mental health.
Life can feel overwhelming when you are carrying anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, identity-related challenges, or the pressure of trying to navigate the expectations of others while remaining true to yourself. Therapy offers a space to slow down, process your experiences, and build healthier ways of coping and moving forward. You do not have to face these challenges alone.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I am committed to creating a compassionate, affirming, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel safe being fully themselves.
I work with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including members of the LGBTQ+ community, and understand the importance of feeling seen, respected, and supported throughout the therapeutic process.
I earned my Master’s degree in Social Work from Florida State University and my Bachelor’s degree in Sociology with a minor in Women’s Studies from University of Florida, graduating cum laude from both programs.
My professional and personal experiences have strengthened my passion for advocacy, inclusivity, and empowering others to embrace their individuality and resilience. I believe healing begins with connection, authenticity, and self-acceptance. Reaching out for support can feel difficult, but it is also a powerful first step toward growth and healing. My goal is to help clients feel empowered, understood, and supported as they work toward becoming the healthiest and most authentic version of themselves.
I have worked with diverse populations in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric stabilization, homeless prevention, and integrated healthcare. These experiences have allowed me to develop an eclectic skill-set with a person-centered approach. I love being a social worker and having the privilege of helping others heal and grow.
I’m Fabiana Robles Fontan, a bilingual Licensed Clinical Social Worker serving clients throughout Florida. I was born and raised in Puerto Rico, Spanish is my first language, and I am fluent in both Spanish and English. I understand that culture, family, identity, language, and life experiences can influence how we understand ourselves and our mental health.
As a therapist, I strive to be warm, approachable, supportive, and genuinely nonjudgmental. I want therapy to feel like a safe place where you can show up exactly as you are; you don’t have to have everything figured out before you start your journey. I value creating real professional connections with my clients while providing encouragement, motivation, support, and compassion throughout the therapeutic process.
If you’re reading this because you’re considering therapy, you’ve already taken an important step. Reaching out for support can feel uncomfortable or overwhelming, especially if therapy is new to you. My goal is to make the process feel less intimidating, more comfortable, and, most importantly, human.
I'm Justin, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), Qualified Supervisor (QS), and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP). My passion lies in helping you and your entire family heal from past wounds and foster a greater sense of curiosity, compassion and connection with one another.
I view myself as a compassionate guide equipped with the tools to support you in self-exploration. Together, we'll work towards improving your communication skills with loved ones, overcoming protective barriers that hinder authentic connections and addressing the wounds that hold you back from greatness.
Hello, I am Skip I have been a therapist for over 12 years. I love what I do and am passionate about assisting people with addressing life issues. I specialize in trauma, addictions and couples therapy.
I specialize in PTSD, anxiety, depression, and support for gay, lesbian, and bisexual clients. For 16 years, I’ve helped people navigate crisis, chronic mental health concerns, and life transitions with care and clarity.
My experience includes inpatient psychiatry, corrections, community mental health, youth counseling, and hospital-based crisis care. I provide diagnostic assessments and therapy tailored to each person’s needs.
I’m committed to creating a supportive, goal-focused space where you can feel heard and understood. If you’re ready to begin healing and move forward, I’d be honored to work with you.
