Therapist

You've probably been carrying more than you've let on, even to the people closest to you. I work with adults and seniors who are dealing with anxiety, depression, panic, anger they can't quite explain, or relationships that feel stuck in the same painful patterns. A lot of the people I meet with feel like they've hit a wall they can't see a way around, whether that's disappointment from the past, self doubt, or a sense that life just isn't working the way they hoped. My work is about helping you understand how you got here, where you actually are right now, and what a different path could look like.

Hi! I'm Femina, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who blends compassion with clarity and practicality. I notice patterns in how people think, communicate, and relate to themselves and others, and I help clients understand how these patterns show up in their daily life. I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you can be honest while also being gently challenged. Clients often tell me they appreciate how I help them build emotional resilience, communicate effectively, set boundaries, and make meaningful changes that last. My focus is not just on coping, but on growth that feels real and empowering.

Ashlie Larimore

Ashlie Larimore

Therapist

Virtual • Jacksonville, FL


Hi, I’m Ashlie Larimore, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Florida. I earned my master’s degree in counseling from Troy University and have spent several years working with children, teens, and adults in both outpatient settings and inpatient crisis care.

Because of my background, I’m comfortable supporting people through everything from everyday stress and overwhelm to life’s heavier moments. I especially enjoy working with individuals navigating anxiety, emotional regulation, ADHD concerns, life transitions, grief, and family or relationship challenges.

I believe therapy should feel supportive, safe, and real - not awkward, intimidating, or overly formal. You don’t need to have the “right words” or a clear plan when you start. Showing up is enough.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Fort Myers

Searching for therapists in Fort Myers starts with finding someone whose experience matches what you want help with. Fort Myers therapists may support people living with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or major life changes. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and background align with your needs. Their bio can help you understand how they work, what kinds of concerns they often support, and what you can expect in a first session.

In a smaller city like Fort Myers, local in-person availability may vary by neighborhood and schedule. Expanding your search to include virtual sessions can give you more options while still letting you work with a therapist licensed in Florida. You can also narrow your search by appointment times, whether a therapist is accepting new patients, therapy approach, and whether a free phone consultation is available. Reading profiles before you book can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and session structure.

Therapy in Fort Myers 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 cost before you book. Headway helps you find therapists who match your preferences, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer in-person or virtual appointments. You can browse therapists, review bios, check estimated costs, and book directly when you’re ready.
