I’m a licensed therapist who works with moms and couples who feel overwhelmed, burnt out, and disconnected. I specialize in postpartum mental health, anxiety, and the mental load that often falls on women. My approach is warm, direct, and practical—I’ll support you while also helping you shift the patterns that keep you stuck. Therapy with me is a space to be honest, feel understood, and start reconnecting with yourself and your relationship.
Hola, I’m Mercedes. I’m a bilingual (English | Spanish) psychotherapist who supports individuals navigating Anxiety, Trauma, and significant life transitions. My approach incorporates somatic principles to help you develop greater Self-Awareness by listening to what your body is communicating.
I understand how easy it can be to lose touch with yourself when you’ve spent so much time surviving, adapting, or staying strong. My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, feel truly understood, and reconnect with yourself so you can make decisions that feel more aligned with who you are and where you want to go.
I support clients in advocating for themselves and overcoming obstacles that prevent healing. I desire to relieve pain and instill hope while concentrating on achievable objectives. I work with individuals, couples, and families.
Hi, I’m Renée Rivers, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in South Florida. I specialize in working with individuals, couples, teens, and families navigating trauma, identity, and major life transitions. As a first-generation Haitian-American woman, I deeply understand the cultural and intergenerational layers that shape how we relate to ourselves and others. My clinical work is grounded in empathy, accountability, and authenticity, I create a space where you don’t have to explain “everything” because I hold space for complexity. I am especially passionate about helping clients unlearn survival patterns that no longer serve them and redefine success, connection, and rest on their own terms.
I’ve worked in school settings, community mental health agencies, and now lead my own private practice, Reflective Rivers Therapy & Consulting. I hold a master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and am currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Counseling with a specialization in Couples and Family Therapy.
It's difficult making the first phone call, booking an appointment and admitting you need help. Whether it's depression, anxiety, a mood disorder or trauma, it's frightening to admit that everything isn't how you want it to be and you don't have all the answers. If you're experiencing sadness, anxiety, mood swings, intrusive thoughts or images, flash backs, numbness or insomnia, there is hope and there is help. I'm going to teach you skills to manage you symptoms, emotions and relationships more effectively.
As a therapist, partner, mother of two, bonus mom to two stepchildren, and owner of an animal rescue, I bring not only 14+ years of clinical experience but also the wisdom gained from my full and colorful life. These experiences allow me to connect with clients through both professional insight and lived empathy. My goal is to help others find balance, healing, and fulfillment in every season of life.
I am a Bilingual Licensed Mental Health Counselor. I work with children, adolescents, and adults providing individual, family and couples therapy. I see patients with a variety of diagnoses and issues including but not limited to depression, anxiety, trauma, behavioral problems, separation, chronic stress, relationship issues, sexual problems, communication difficulties, adjustment issues, and grief among others. I utilize an eclectic approach, with an emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Deerfield Beach
Searching for therapists in Deerfield Beach starts with knowing what kind of support you want from therapy. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, work stress, or a major life change. As you compare therapists, look for training and specialties that match your needs. A therapist’s profile can show whether they use approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.
Deerfield Beach is a smaller coastal city, so local in-person options may be more limited than in larger nearby markets. Virtual therapy can expand your choices while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Florida. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether their session style fits what you want from one on one therapy near me. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they communicate, what concerns they often support, and what to expect in a first session.
Therapy in Deerfield Beach can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your expected out-of-pocket expense before you begin. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, review detailed profiles, see estimated costs after entering your insurance details, and book directly when you’re ready.
