I am a LCSW that is trauma informed. I have experience working with women that have had pregnancy complications, loss, and women that may be experiencing post partum depression. I work with parents on attachment and challenges that parenting may bring to the family.
I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Nationally Certified Counselor with over 20 years of experience supporting adults through life’s most challenging seasons. My background includes extensive work in behavioral health and addiction treatment, with a focus on helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, substance use concerns, stress, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. I believe therapy should feel supportive, practical, and judgment-free. Many of my clients come to therapy feeling stuck, exhausted, anxious, discouraged, or unsure of how to move forward. My goal is to help you better understand what you are experiencing, identify patterns that may be holding you back, and build healthier tools to manage life with more confidence and stability.
I strive to create a space where you feel heard, respected, and supported as we work together toward meaningful change.
Hello! I’m Catherine Harvey, LICSW, licensed in both Massachusetts and Florida. I'm the proud owner of Radiant Horizons Counseling, P.L.L.C. My approach to therapy integrates compassion, individualized care, and evidence-based practices to support your healing journey. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and I utilize somatic and movement-based therapies, CBT, DBT, and psychodynamic approaches. I have a Bachelor's of Science degree in Psychology and Master of Social Work degree, both from Bridgewater State University.
I believe that true healing begins when you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. As a dual-board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health and Family Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of healthcare experience, my passion is delivering compassionate, individualized care that treats you as a whole person—not just a list of symptoms.
Mental health challenges like ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and OCD can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to navigate them alone. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in deep empathy. Together, we will combine evidence-based treatments with a personalized plan tailored specifically to your unique life, goals, and well-being. My focus is to help you build resilience, gain clarity, and walk away with practical tools for lasting, meaningful progress. Let’s work together to empower your total well-being.
Drawing from twenty years of experience in education and principal of therapeutic schools, I have developed the art of conflict resolution with reticent learners, with parents, with couples and individuals. I have the skillset to support people and transform their perceptions of self to cope with communication issues, anger, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, and trauma. My empathetic approach offers people to find positive and creative techniques. I am highly gifted in working to establish and enhance relationships between parent and child/husband and wife using conflict resolution to create opportunities. As a clinician of almost ten years, I interact exceedingly well with individuals and couples to support positive communication and achieve personal growth whether it be in a marriage, parenting/school skills, or within oneself. My understanding, compassion, and acceptance of people when they enter therapy create a safe and trusting environment to unpack problems and develop strategies that enhance well-being, stability, and alternative perspectives on how to address struggles/conflicts.
Life can feel overwhelming when stress, relationship challenges, difficult experiences, or emotional struggles begin affecting your ability to feel connected to yourself and the people around you. You may find yourself stuck in unhealthy patterns, struggling to communicate effectively, or carrying emotional burdens that continue to impact your daily life. Whether you are navigating challenges as an individual, within a relationship, or as part of a family system, therapy can provide a space to better understand what is happening and begin creating meaningful change.
I’m a bilingual psychotherapist with 20 years of experience working in correctional health, outpatient mental health, and private practice. I work with youth, adolescents, and adults, offering therapy and evaluations in both English and Spanish. Through my practice, MLC Mental Services, I provide confidential in-person and virtual care and welcome individuals from all backgrounds, including immigrants, first responders, and those working in health and human services.
I provide virtual therapy for clients in Connecticut and Florida. My primary specialty is anxiety and related disorders. I teach my clients applicable coping skills to help manage emotions better. I also help my clients to improve self-esteem, learn to set boundaries, and reach their goals in life. You don’t have to have the perfect words, the perfect mood, or the perfect version of yourself when you show up. Simply come as you are.
I practice positive psychology and believe in striving toward wellness all the time, not just in times of hardship. I am here to walk with you on the path to self discovery, self love, and empowerment.
I specialize in anxiety and depression, relationship issues, family conflict, divorce, life transitions, cancer diagnosis, and more. Please contact me so we can do the deep dive together.

I'm an LMHC licensed in Florida, and I've worked with children, adolescents, families, and (over the past three years) adults across homes, schools, outpatient settings, and social service agencies. I have particular experience with military connected families, blended families, and clients navigating ADHD, eating disorders, anxiety, mood and bipolar disorders, grief, and the kinds of life transitions that shake your sense of self.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapist in Fort Lauderdale, FL
Finding family therapists in Fort Lauderdale starts with understanding what your family wants support with. Family therapy can help with parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, and major life changes. Licensed family therapists are trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family counseling, marriage and family therapy, parenting support, or approaches such as family systems therapy.
Fort Lauderdale has a smaller local pool than larger Florida cities, so virtual appointments can make it easier to find a therapist who fits your family’s needs and schedule. Some sessions may include the full family, while others may involve parents, siblings, couples, or individual family members. It helps to discuss session structure before booking. Review therapist bios for availability, therapeutic approach, free phone consultations, and experience with the concerns most relevant to your family.
Therapy in Fort Lauderdale can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for family therapists who are accepting new patients, compare detailed bios, check your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking. You can use the directory to find someone who matches your needs, accepts your plan, and offers the appointment format that works for your family.
If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
