Building a mental health practice means building relationships, and I take that seriously. My work is rooted in understanding your full story, not just your diagnosis. Whether you're navigating anxiety, working through depression, or processing trauma, I bring genuine curiosity and a collaborative spirit to every session. I work with adults via telehealth, which means care on your schedule and in your own space. My goal is for you to leave each session feeling more grounded and more equipped to move forward.
Hi there! I am a bilingual (Spanish/English) Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 6 years of experience in the field. In my experience, I have worked with children, teens and adults healing from trauma, abuse, attachment injuries, and neglect. I also support parents who want to strengthen parent-child relationships, understand how early experiences shape their parenting and build healthier family dynamics.
Hi! I’m Tanya, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with four years of clinical experience. Life can be tough, and sometimes we all need a space to talk things through. I offer a relaxed, supportive environment where you can be yourself without judgment. Whether you’re dealing with stress, relationships, or just feeling stuck, I’m here to help you figure things out and move forward.
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 over 30 years of experience in the mental health field and have worked with clients at all ages of the lifespan. I earned my Master of Social Work degree from Indiana University. I am licensed to practice in the states of Florida, Arizona, Indiana, Missouri and Alabama.
I'm Rachel, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with four years of experience in the mental health field and a background in psychology and counseling. I specialize in neurodivergence and trauma, which means I spend a lot of my time with people who have spent years feeling like they were too much, not enough, or just hard to understand. If that resonates with you, I want you to know that this is a space where that changes.
I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who works with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, grief, burnout, and life transitions. I understand that even high-functioning, capable individuals can feel overwhelmed, emotionally drained, or stuck despite doing their best to manage daily responsibilities.
My goal is to provide a supportive, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and respected. I believe therapy should feel collaborative and practical — not intimidating. Whether you’re facing ongoing stress, processing past experiences, or seeking greater clarity in your career or personal life, I’m here to support meaningful and sustainable change.
On the outside, you may look like you have everything together. You work hard, provide for your family, and carry responsibilities well. Yet internally, you may feel overwhelmed, disconnected, anxious, angry, or caught in the same patterns despite your best efforts to change. My practice is built for people who are ready to move beyond simply talking about their problems. Together, we’ll identify the underlying beliefs, emotional patterns, and coping strategies that keep you feeling stuck. Therapy becomes a place to develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, healthier relationships, and lasting change.

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.
