Reaching out for therapy can be a significant step, and I strive to make the process feel comfortable, supportive, and free from judgment. With over 10 years of experience as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor, I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, and stress.
I believe that every person has strengths that can be built upon, even during difficult times. My role is to provide a safe space where you can explore your experiences, gain insight, and develop practical strategies for lasting change. I tailor treatment to your individual needs and goals, recognizing that no two people have the same story.
I value authenticity, compassion, and collaboration in therapy, and I work to ensure that clients feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout the counseling process. Whether you're facing a current challenge or seeking personal growth, I look forward to supporting you on your journey.
Hi, I'm Heidi, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) at Life Thrive Solutions dedicated to helping individuals and families navigate life's challenges with compassion, support, and evidence-based care. I earned my Bachelor of Social Work from Calvin College and my Master of Social Work from Barry University. Over the past 10 years, I've worked in outpatient mental health, residential treatment, and healthcare settings, providing therapy to adolescents, adults, older adults, and families experiencing a wide range of emotional and behavioral concerns.
Seeking therapy can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 10 years of experience, I work with children, teens, adults, and couples struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship concerns, stress, and life transitions. I provide a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and understood. My goal is to help you gain insight, develop healthy coping skills, and create meaningful, lasting change so you can live a more balanced and fulfilling life.
Hi, I’m Eli Manata, a Florida Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) offering trauma-informed, inclusive virtual therapy for adults and couples. I support clients navigating gambling-related harm, substance use, anxiety, trauma, sexual health, intimacy, identity, and relationship concerns. I am pursuing International Certified Gambling Counselor (ICGC) certification while completing doctoral studies in Expressive Therapies. Sessions are available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, and French.
"Whether you're managing anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD or working toward recovery from substance use, you deserve a provider who listens and looks at your whole health. I bring 20 years of intensive care nursing and 8 years in psychiatry and addiction medicine. Welcome to the Sunshine Clinic. I'd love to help you feel like yourself again."
I’m Ashley Rhodes-Courter, LCSW-S, a trauma specialist, clinical supervisor, and founder of Sustainable Family Services with nearly 20 years of professional and lived experience supporting individuals and families impacted by trauma, attachment wounds, foster care and adoption, relationship challenges, burnout, and major life transitions.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Social Work from the University of Southern California and advanced credentials in trauma and TeleMental Health, including Board Certified TeleMental Health (BC-TMH), Certified Clinical Trauma Professional Level II (CCTP-II), Certified Child and Adolescent Trauma Professional (CATP), and Certified Family Trauma Professional (CFTP).
Outside of clinical practice, I am a New York Times and International bestselling author of Three Little Words and Three More Words and an award-winning keynote speaker and child welfare advocate. My work has taken me around the world speaking about trauma, resilience, child welfare, and strengthening families.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and retired nurse with more than 25 years of experience in healthcare, social work, and behavioral health. Born in Texas and raised in Brazil and Chile, I’ve spent much of my life moving between cultures. I provide therapy in English, Spanish, and Portuguese and bring that multicultural perspective into my work.
I work with adults navigating anxiety and overthinking, depression, relationship difficulties, narcissism, grief and loss, caregiver stress, aging, identity concerns, and major life transitions. I also provide LGBTQ+ affirming therapy and help who want to create a meaningful life on their own terms and figure out what you want the next chapter of their life to look like.
I have a particular interest in helping people who have spent years being the dependable one—the partner, parent, caregiver, professional, or person everyone else turns to—and are beginning to ask, “What about me?”
